PROCEDURE:
Geometry Check
Geometry Clean up of the model and orient it properly.

Meshing
Meshing using ortho tria and tria as per required
checking for minimum and maximum length errors of the mesh

Volume Meshing
The 2D mesh is then defined with Volume Define option , then meshed for volume
Using collapse quality criteria option to check for collapsing of solid mesh.

Learning Outcomes
- Geometry clean up, 2D mesh
- learned to solid mesh the component without any collapse, dips and kinks on the model.
Conclusion
The model has been successfully solid meshed without any errors.
