Project 1 - Meshing of Floor Panel

.

Follow the below-mentioned quality criteria, mesh the component given below, and assign thickness:

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

Procedure:

• Import the CAD model of a Floor Panel into ANSA interface.

This is the given cad model

• 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 auto fixing it, it there is any exceptional surfaces are present we can delete
that manually by checking in the property card list and select 'show only to clear each error.

• Visually check the orientation and rectify if any discrepancies arise.

• Mid surfacing has to be achieved manually. Using offset command, mid surface is generated. The mid surface generated is isolated and saved as a new PID.

Topology is performed.

After generating mid surface for each component, another geometry check is conducted.

• In the mesh interface, quality criteria and mesh attributes are assigned as required. Best command is used to generate mesh. Quality check is performed on the generated mesh. Mesh is adjusted accordingly such that it obeys the required quality criteria.

Mesh cleanup is done using the combination of following commands as and when required:

1. Reconstruct

2. Delete nodes

3. Cut

4. Smooth

5. Split,etc

• After successful meshing, thickness of 1.2mm is assigned. In the presentation parameters

• The final result of the model is given as.
