Week 6-3D Tetra Meshing Challenge

  1. For the given MODEL 1, Create a Teramesh for Housing component with the following quality criteria.

TetraMesh Generation Method: 2D to 3D Conversion

Elements sizes: Min- 2 Units, Target- 5 Units, Max- 7 Units 

Tet collapse: 0.15

 

MODEL-1 :

  • Import the model given and work on it.
  • Improve the Geometric errors if there are any.
  • Check for the different components and work on them separately.

  • I chose model 2 to work on first.

  • First, we need to work on the outer part of the component for the 2D mesh.

  • Use 2D mesh >> Automesh option to mesh.

  • After completing the 2D mesh and rectifying all errors in min and max length we can move to the 3D mesh.

  • Using 3D >> Tetra mesh we can mesh the component.

  • After meshing check for the tetra collapse using F10.

  • Follow the same process for the second component.

MOEDEL-2:

  1. For the given MODEL 2, Create a 3D Tetramesh with the following quality criteria. 

TetraMesh Generation Method: Quick Tetra Mesh/ Volume Tetra Mesh

Target Element size: 3 Units.

Tet Collapse: 0.15

  • Import the model given and work on it.
  • Delete the solids first
  • Improve the Geometric errors if there are any.

  • After improving the geometry, use the Geom>>Solids>>Bounding surface to convert the surface into solids to use the volume mesh.

 

  • After creating the solids we can proceed with the volume tetra meshing using 3D>>Tetra mesh>> Volume tetra.

  • After completing the Meshing check for the tetra collapse.

MODEL-3:

  1. For the given assembly MODEL 3, Create a 3D Tetramesh with the following quality criteria.

TetraMesh Generation Method: Quick Tetra Mesh/ Volume Tetra Mesh

Target Element size: 4 Units.

Tet Collapse: 0.15

  • Import the model given and work on it.
  • Delete the solids first
  • Improve the Geometric errors if there are any.
  • Check for the different components and work on them separately.
  • After improving the geometry, use the Geom>>Solids>>Bounding surface to convert the surface into solids to use the volume mesh.
  • After completing the Meshing check for the tetra collapse.
  • Follow the same process With the Remaining components.

  Hence obtained the tetra mesh to the given models with less than 1% tetra collapse error.
