Week 6-Meshing of Hood Challenge
In this challenge we need to extract mid surfaces of different parts separately
Parts are:
- Latch
- Hinge
- Inner surface
- Outer surface
Latch
- Remove the solid body from surface
- Do nessesary clean-ups
- Washer split on hole in the body
- Extract the midsurface
- Divide the body into more rectangle pieces
- Automesh the body wich have element size 5
- Configure the mesh by reconstructuing and we have to optimize the mesh
- Check quality index for failure of materials
- Use drag tria option for removing opposite trias and touching trias
- Element optimization for optimizing elements

Fig: Latch
Hinge
- Remove solid body
- Do nessesary clean-ups
- Remove unnessasry points
- Washer slpit
- Extract the midsurface
- Divide body into small for better mesh quality
- Automesh the body wich have element size 5
- Configure the mesh by reconstructuing and we have to optimize the mesh
- Check quality index for failure of materials
- Use drag tria option for removing opposite trias and touching trias
- Element optimization for optimizing elements

Fig: hinge
outer surface
- For outer surface we only need to do mesh in half of the body because it is an symmetrical body
- Remove solid body
- Do nessesary clean-ups
- Remove unnessasry points
- Washer slpit
- Extract the midsurface
- Divide body into small for better mesh quality
- Automesh the body wich have element size 5
- Configure the mesh by reconstructuing and we have to optimize the mesh
- Check quality index for failure of materials
- Use drag tria option for removing opposite trias and touching trias
- Element optimization for optimizing elements
- Use smooth option for smoothing the mesh
- At last reflect the mesh on other side by reflect in tools option

Inner surface
- For outer surface we only need to do mesh in half of the body because it is an symmetrical body
- Remove solid body
- Do nessesary clean-ups
- Remove unnessasry points
- Washer slpit
- Extract the midsurface
- Divide body into small for better mesh quality
- Automesh the body wich have element size 5
- Configure the mesh by reconstructuing and we have to optimize the mesh
- Check quality index for failure of materials
- Use drag tria option for removing opposite trias and touching trias
- Element optimization for optimizing elements
- Use smooth option for smoothing the mesh
- Use place node and split and collapse option
- Use translate option to minimize the warpage
- Repeate quality manual cleaup process for eliminating different failures
- At last reflect the mesh on other side by reflect in tools option
