Project 1 - Meshing of Floor Panel

Objective:For the given model, Take the mid surface after checking the geometrical errors and mesh the mid surface with the given element Quality criteria. (Refer the table Below for the Quality criteria)

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

Solution:

First open the file by going to File-Open

Now,After opening the file select the whole component and do Topo option (it connect the cons if they are not connected)

Now,check for any geometrical errors by going to Tools-checks-geometry Or search check on search box

now,click on execute and if there are any errors just right click on them and click on fix.

Now,check the thickness by going to Utilities-measure-Nodes

Thickness:1 mm

Now,For Middle Surace and mesh ,I have Used Casting mesh

In Casting Mesh It will generate mesh directly without creating mid_surface

mesh is Generated.

Set PID

Assign_thickness=1mm

There are 340 off elements now We have to clear it.

we can Clear These Off Elements by these methods

Reconstruct in Shell Mesh

Smooth in Shell Mesh

Used Split,swap option in Elements to remove trias.

Paste Option to move trias.

Avoid Rotating Quads.

Rotating_Quad solved

Mesh Done with Zero Off elements.

Conclusion

Assigned Thickness

Mesh is Done.
