Week 5 Challenge : Surface wrap on Automotive Assembly

Aim:

To check for geometrical errors on the given individual components (engine, transmission, gearbox), and delete the unwanted surfaces. Then surface-wrap the engine, transmission, and gearbox assembly with a set target length using ANSA.

Problem statement:

1. Delete all the unwanted components present in the individual geometry for the surface mesh.

2. To merge all the three components and to create a surface wrap. with a target length of 3mm using ANSA

Solution:

1. Import the engine geometry into ANSA.
2. Delete all the components which are found to be irrelevant to the geometry specification of the engine.
3. Perform the same for Gearbox and transmission.
4. Merge all three models.
5. To surface wrap the geometry go to mesh> elements> wrap> constant length. Here give the target length as 3mm for all the components as per the problem statement.

Conclusions:

Hence, the assembly of the engine, transmission, and gearbox is surface wrapped with the target length of 3mm.
