Week 4

Aim- In this challenge, we have a bottle cap on which we have to work on areas like geometry cleanup mid-surface and meshing.

Procedure -In this challenge you have to download the given model from the challenge and it appears like(fig.1) this when we give a topo to it.

 

                                                                                 Fig .1

 and further, proceed with geometry cleanup .

For geometry cleanup, we have to go to Checks Manager and on that  there is option called  geomatry , on which we have select the required options that we need to checks that you can see in the fig.2

  

                                                                 fig.2

we have to select the options that we need to checks so we can easily see the error in fig.2 in red colour after removing all the errors you have again execute then you find there is no error in fig.3

                                                                             fig.3

After geometry  cleanup, we have to take mid surface of the given component for that we have to go two different methods either auto mid or manual mid but in this component, auto mid is not possible so we have to stick with manual mid ,after taking mid of the component this is how mid surface look like in fig .4 

                                                            fig.4

make sure to check the geometry of the model once again after taking mid surface and now its time to put the given value of quality criteria that is in fig.5

                                                                         fig.5

When you done with this thing then you have to go with meshing the component so for meshing, i used best mesh till now that gives me better result in meshing the component and for made some changes we can also use split/swap/join and reconstruct and smooth sometimes to get rid of the off element and trias and rotataing quads that is present in the component.

After given quality criteria and meshing the component of how its look like in fig.6

                                                                      fig.6

after this, you have to assign the thickness to the model so it appears like  this in fig. 7

 

                                                                 fig.7

Learning Outcomes - In this challenge, I learned some new things as compare to the last challenge because this challenge is a bit complex to take mid surface and mesh the component than the last one with new techniques and some other different ways.

CONCLUSION- In this challenge, the conclusion is that all the quality criteria are fulfilled.
