Project 1 - 2D meshing on the instrumental Panel

AIM:- To perform 2D meshing on the instrumental panel by checking the geometrical errors and mesh with the given element quality criteria.

PROCEDURE:-

• At first we will import the geometry to the ANSA workspace.

• As we have imported their might be a chance that their would be some geometrical errors present.
• So we will perform geometrical cleanup on the model.

• Then after geometrical clean up we will check for the geometrical check.
• Their we might get errors as shown on below image which we can perform by autofix and manual fix.

• After getting geometric perfect model we will go for manual mid surfacing on the model.
• By checking the thickness we will set different PID'S in model.

• As per instruction we will capture cross pattern in mid surfaceing the DOG houses as those Dog houses are solid and are not having thickness.

• Now after getting mid surface we will move ahead for meshing.
• Their we will set the quality criteria and mesh parameters as given on utility panel.

• After setting up these Quality and Mesh parameter we will again check for geometry.
• And also we will go for geometrical clean up on the model and as their might be some unwanted double and triple cons we will remove those.
• On mid surface their might be some surfaces which might not be appropriate which we will be creating new surface.
• After getting desired geometry we will go for meshing the model.

• Now we will assign length in the parameters of the model with average length.

• After this we will perform Best or Spot mesh on the model.

• Now we will try to remove Trias and Rotational Quads in meshed model.
• And also remove Off elements as well but due to complicated geometry we are unable to remove all the off elements and Trias from meshed model.
• At last thickness is applied to the model.

LEARNING OUTCOME:-

• In this model we have learnt to clean complex geometry and as the geometry is having variable thickness, take out mid surface out of it and assign PID as per its respective thickness.
• As this model is having complex geometry so the challange is to remove Trias and Off elements from the mesh and also maintaining the proper mesh flow.

CONCLUSION:-

The Modeling and meshing of the instrument panel is performed as per given quality criteria and mesh parameter.
