Project-2-Meshing of Door Inner Panel Challenge

Aim- Midsurfacing of the door panel and meshing.

Objective- For below quality criteria mesh the model,

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	6 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-

1.Import the model - First of all import the model by using option import solver deck which is in left corner.

2.Geometry clean up- Do the geometry clean up because the mid-surface will not capture properly and because of that the mesh will not generate properly. For geometry clean-up we can use quick edit option in geometry panel.

3.Mid-surfacing- Do the manual mid surfacing because the model have different different thickness so preferring the manual mid-surfacing.

For manual mid-surfacing we should measure the thickness of that part by using distance option in geometry panel. After that geometry> surface edit> offset> put the half value of thickness>select surface create duplicate >then offset.

for manual mid-surfacing first we check the thickness-

another method of manual mid-surfacing is below-

in image for this type of surface first we generate midline by line module in geaometry panel-

after that we need to project the line on surface by using project option in tool panel-

then we need to generate the surface by using surface>ruled >selecting line >create-

Completed mid-surface-

4.Mesh- For meshing we are using the auto-mesh. First we need to set the quality parameters. After that we are going for automesh. 2D>automesh>set quality parameter>hit the mesh.

adding quality criteria-

generating the mesh-

For failing quality criteria we should use the rebuild mesh, element clean-up and translate command in tool panel.

Completed mesh without any fail-

Outcomes-Learned about manual mid-surfacing method and meshing.
