Week 3 - 2D meshing for Sheet metal

Aim: To create a proper mesh flow considering the quality criteria provided after cleaning Geometric errors.

Steps:

  1. Load the model.
  2. Assign the length. This helps to maintain the target length.     
     
  3. Clean the geometric errors.
  4. Extract the mid surface using the Offset command. Since the components are Sheet metal, the thickness is uniform all over the component therefore we can use Mid surface command as well as the Offset command.
  5. Assign Quality parameters and Mesh Parameters
     
  6. Meshing. By using various commands such as CUT, JOIN, and DELETE under MARCOS surfaces are cleaned for smooth flow of mesh as well as to satisfy Quality parameters. While meshing we have to avoid trias and quads.
