Project 1 - 2D meshing on the instrumental Panel

AIM

To take mid surface and mesh the given dashboard component

PROCEDURE

In first step we need run a topo for any surfaces not attached to one other and refine the given model by giving perimeter & macros length to 1

now run geometry check for any cad issues

And unchecked had been deleted and created new surfaces where needed and all geometrical issues had been cleared

Now i mesured the thickness of the moder at different locations so i can take middle surface of the component

The outer thinkness has 0.6mm thickness so i use offset option to offset the outer surface to the middle

And used faces middle to take the mid surfaces

I had taken the mid surface for dog houses as shown

now i made some cons to supress so that my elements will follow the given quality criteria

and given mesh size

as my average length given is 4 in gave perimeter and macros length to 4

MESHING

i used best mesh option in mesh generation as it provides best combination of mixed mesh

i moved to shadow mode to check for elementel failures and clered some failure elements by reconstructing

and i elemenated some trias to decrese the percentage of trias by spliting and swaping

CONCLUSION

in this moder there are very small faces where there will be elemental failuers so hundered percent quality can not be acquired
