The cad model is given as

Steps followed

• Topology is done as the first step to connect all the edges or single cons
• Geometrical checks are done for checking if there’s any geometrical error , if there is any error we can clear the errors by autofixing it , if there is any exceptional surfaces are present we can delete that manualy by checking in the property card list and select ‘show only ‘ to clear each error
• For extracting the mid surface we need to measure the edges length, then by offset option a face is selected by feature area selection
• The half of the parent geometric length is given as the offset value , also the direction should be checked and the negative offset value should be given for the opposite angle

• After extracting the midsurface , hide the parent geometry and save the midsurface in the property card list (ctrl+p)
• Remove the unwanted lines and clean up the model
• For the mesh generation we can go for classic mesh-best mesh by selecting the whole model also give the average mesh length as required
• Declare the quality parameters (Fn+f11) as required

• For improving the mesh quality the quality parameters should be satisfied, so that we will make changes in the mesh by ‘reconstruct’ , and avoid the tria elements which are facing opposite side and facing along the edges by the options in the elements such as ‘split ,collapse, swap etc
• After improving the mesh quality we can go for mirroring the model in the ‘ transform’ –‘copy ‘ then select the surface and unselect the unsymmetrical surface
• The final result of the model is given as
•
