Week 7-12-Creation of 1D Connectors Challenge

Aim:-Create mesh and connection of given component according to quality criteria.

Target Element size - 5 Units

S.N	Quality Criteria	Value
1	Aspect Ratio	5
2	Skewness	45
3	Warping	15
4	Taper	0.5
5	Min. Length	2 Units
6	Max. Length	8 Units
7	Min angle Quad	45
8	Max angle Quad	135
9	Min angle Tria	30
10	Max angle Tria	110
10	Tria %

Step1:- First import the model and create a mesh.using 2D>automesh

Step2:-Now we create connection. we can use 1D,2D,3D connection option.

1.Bolt connection:- To create bolt connection we go 2D>connection>bolt>select node, component,type of layer and type of connection.

2. Spot-weld with rigid element:- To create spot-weld with rigid element connection we go 2D>connection>spot>select node, component,type of layer and type of connection.

3.Spot-weld with spring element:- To create spot-weld with spring element connection we go 2D>connection>spot>select node, component,type of layer and type of connection.

4.Hexa(Adhesive):-

To create Hexa(Adhesive) connection we go 2D>connection>seam>select node, component,type of layer and type of connection.

5.Quad element:- To create quad element connection we go 2D>connection>seam>select node, component,type of layer and type of connection.

6.Seam-Quad(angled+cappled+l):- To createseam-quad(angled+capped+l) connection we go 2D>connection>seam>select node, component,type of layer and type of connection.

7.Spot-weld with 2layers and 5mm diameter:-To create spot-weld with 2 layers and 5mm diameter connection we go 2D>connection>spot>select node, component,type of layer and type of connection.

Conclusion:-

• In this challege, i learn how to create connection.
• type of connection.
