Week - 4 - 2D meshing for Plastic components

DETAILED REPORT

Aim

To extract the mid surface and mesh generation for plastic component based on the given quality criteria

Procedure

BODY OF THE CONTENT

To extract the mid surface for continuous varying thickness use middle-multi option from faces tab

In order to assign the thickness to extracted mid surface on continuous varying thickness surface, take average value from the area and assign the value of average to that surface

To proper mesh flow

Splitting the surf by cut option to max possible tiny macros so that it leads to get good mesh flow throughout the model and it reduces trias concentration

Split,swap,join these three option helps to control the trias concentration

Paste option helps to reduce particular trias on the surface

Num(+\-) helps to maintain equal num of nodes at circle areas and edges

Conclusion

To get a good mesh flow by splitting the macros to max possible tiny macro
