Project 1 - Meshing of Floor Panel

Aim: Mesh the given floor panel for the given quality criterias without any failures in the elements.

given:quality criteria value is given below.

Target Element Length = 5 Units

S.N Quality Criteria Value
1 Aspect Ratio 5
2 Skewness 45
3 Warping 15
4 Taper 0.5
5 Min. Length 2 Units
6 Max. Length 8 Units
7 Min angle Quad 45
8 Max angle Quad 135
9 Min angle Tria 20
10 Max angle Tria 120
10 Tria % 10

objectives:

1. geometry cleanup.

2. Measure thickness.

3. Mid surface extraction.

4. Quality criteria match.

5. Meshing of floor panel.

Procedure:

1. Geometry cleanup:

  • perform topo first from faces section.
  • go in checks section/click on geometry/execute.
  • Solve the error by right click and click on fix automatically.
  • rest error is solved manually.
  • error surface is deleted and make manually by using cut,project cut,delete from faces section.

2. Measure thickness:

  • go in utility section click on measure then click on two cons to measure the thickness.

3. Mid surface extraction:

  • go in faces section/select mid surface/select on geometry options/and confirm not to delete original surface.

4. Quality criteria matched:

  • Go in utility section where the quality matching popup is generated which is shown below and fill as per given value in question.
  • Now go in presentation perameter and select element% then slide below and slide the detailed to initial position then apply.
  • the below figure shows the detailed demand effect.

5. Meshing of floor panel:

  • Select length from perimeter section and fixed it to 5 as per given target length in question.
  • Using cut/project cut/delete from faces section to maintain mesh flow.
  • Delete hot points by select the delete from hot points section.
  • Use batch mesh from mesh generation section.
  • Use split/join from elements section and improve from shell mesh where we use reconstruction and smooth option for better mesh flow.
  • Meshing with better mesh flow without failing quality criteria is generated.

Conclusions:

  • cleared geometrical error.
  • mid surface extraction.
  • better mesh flow is generated with less trias.
