Week 6-Meshing of Hood Challenge

AIM- To extract the mid surface of a given component and mesh it

with the quality criteria given below

Target Element Length = 5 Units

Cad model image-This is the initial image of our cad model.

fig.1

Procedure-As we know that our first step is to download the model from the

skill lync portal and then we have to import it into as per the given format.

In the beginning, our model looks like this as you can see in fig.1.

After that, we have to the mid surface of our model and do some geometry checks,

so if you found any surface is missing from the region you have to create it,

then you can see how’s your mid surface looks like in fig.2, but it’s a huge part

so I will demonstrate to you only one part of it for a better understanding

and that is the inner part of the hood.

fig.2

Then you have to go to the quality criteria tab and write down the given

info so you can see that whether the element is failing for given quality

or not in fig. 3 .that is on the left side of the graphical area.

fig.3

Then you have to start the meshing on a given component (HOOD)but as

I told you before it’s a huge part so I will demonstrate to you only one part

of it for a better understanding and that is the inner part of the hood that we can see in fig.4

fig.4

So here we have to do meshing with the help of various tools are present

in 2d meshing tab and apart from this there are few other parts are also

meshed to see them you can look into fig.5

Results-As per the question we achieve whatever we want in our model

and here we learnt new things in this challenge, that is how to do mesh

and how to clear the quality errors.

Final model image-This is the final image of our model in fig.6
