Project 1 - 2D meshing on the instrumental Panel

Report Final Project 1

Provide Aim: create mid surface for the part, create 2d mesh, clean off elements based on quality standard

Procedure:

Obeserve the part, most of it has uniform thickness 0.6mm, we can use auto offset 0.3mm to create mid surface. For some area like ribs, we need manual mid surfce.

These area need manual mid surface, do it based on assignment requirement.

The final mid surface should be like this:

Then create 2d mesh, set up quality standard. Must optimize construction lines to have good mesh and clean off element. In my case, I had 2500 off element and then decreased to 600.

Learning Outcomes:

This is a complicated model, it takes time and patience and skills to finish. The most important thing is know how to manage construction line, it needs experience.

Conclusion:

Before mid surface, always measure and decide where to begin. For 2d mesh, need more experience on how to managa construction lines to avoid bad capture and off elements. For complicated part, sometimes we can do part by part.
