Week 12:Project 2-Meshing of Rear Wheel Holder challenge
AIM: To mesh the rear wheel holder component with the given quality criteria and to assign proper thickness for the model.
PROCEDURE:
- Import the model using the import deck by choosing the iges file and click import.
- Once the model is imported, check for any solids that are present in the model and delete it by using the delete tool select the solids and delete.
- Now the model should be corrected in the areas where it has any surface openings, gaps, misorientation of cons, unreplaced cons. Correct that by using topo tools.
- Now to take mid surface, here since the model has too many features and we cant use manual mid by using faces we use auto mid here, bcos the model has a similar thickness for the entire body. The auto mid surface is applied for the model by using skin offset, extraction options.
- By that, the mid surface is extracted perfectly for the model.
- The mid surface is then corrected if any topology error is found.
- Then for good mesh flow, the component is divided into perfect areas for mesh flow.
- The meshing is done from the center of the component to the outer for this component for perfect meshing and to eliminate more trias by clearing and to have a perfect mesh flow with minimal trips.
- Then meshing is to be done starting from inner, the quality criteria factor is to be noted from the beginning so that quality errors can be cleared from the start.
- For this model we don't use most tools present, rather we use geom<quick edit, for splitting surface, toggle, replace point, addpoint.
- Most of the quality of the mesh can be cleared while meshing by adding or decreasing the nodes.
- The quality tool is used for swapping edge, optimizing the manually remeshed region, split quad, combine quad, drag tria.
- smooth option is used to adjust the mesh flow in the manually remeshed region, thus creating a good mesh flow.
- By this process the mesh can be created to the element criteria of the model and also flow can be improved by this.
