Week 4-1D Element Creation Challenge

Aim-1D Element Creation and meshing of the bracket.

Procedure-

  1. Download the geometry close the wireframe of the model and then take the upper bracket and and generate a mid surface of it and then creat a 2nd component and take the midsurface of the lower bracket and put in the 2nd component section.
  2. Use auto mesh to creat a mesh flow on the midsurface of the bracket.
  3. Now we will go to hyperbeam view and creat one rod of box section one beam of I section and one bar of X section.
  4. And we will put the dimensions and thickness as given.
  5. Then in both a we will give a rbe2 link and in between both b and both c we will give rbe3 link with the dof as mentioned.
  6. Then in between a-a we will creat a road in between b-b we will creat a beam and in between c-c we will creat a bar.
  7. Then according to it we will creat 3property part naming road, beam and bar and we will update the road,beam and bar in those property part.
  8. For d and e will will creat Rbe2 link with same center and then we will go to masses and set mass of magnitude of 10mm and snap.
  9. Then we will creat another property part name it as spring mass and we will update it with the D-F and E-F connections.
  10. Then we will go to spings and select the nodes and the property select as spring mass and then and element type as CELAS1 and snap to update it.

Conclusion-We will get a bracket whose midsurface is meshed and whose each holes are connected with rbe2 and rbe3 connections.
