Week 6- Challenge
- The objective is to determine the quality criteria with traget element size 5 mm on given component hood.
- PROCEDURE
- After importing file to Hyperworks sing import model option.
- Firstly, remove solid from the model and start doing mid surfacing for all the parts
- Once we are done with mid surfacing, we need to do some manual clean up with quick edit command. Sometime autocleanup command are not much useful because it creates unwanted points and lines.
- Before starting mesh, we need to feed quality criteria in -PREFERENCES-CRITERIA FILE SETTING.
- Now perform 2d meshing on each component with threshold.
- For meshing
- Meshing is complex process in term of geometry consideration. Here, I have used quality index and element cleanup to make it upto the mark and analyse the errors.
- Shortcut key F12 for 2d mesh with setting Align, with size 5mm and advance mesh to make it flow between two surfaces.
- I have this process numerous times to get this things done properly
- I have also used mask command to get rid of certain element with does not indicate quality criteria
- I have also used smooth command t make flow in meshing.
- Here are some images which I have used to explain process with quality criteria.

CONCLUSION:
This challenge helps me to understand the process of 2D meshing and quality criteria for optimize result of whole analysis. It gives me better understanding about which quality criteria are affecting analysis results.
