Week 8-3D Tetra Meshing Challenge

AIM: To perform the 3D tetra mesh using different methods as mentioned.

PROCEDURE:

  • So here we have given three models and we have to perform 3D MESH on it.

CASE 1:

TetraMesh Generation Method: 2D to 3D Conversion

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

Tet collapse: 0.15

  • The model is given below:

  • Now in this first we will cleanup the geometry if required and also the will remove the fillet.
  • For that we will use DEFEATURE, QUICK EDIT option.
  • After that we will assign the qulity criteria for the meshing.

  • In this first we will create 2D mesh on the surface then convert it into 3D mesh.
  • Now we will mesh the suface , for that go to the 2D>AUTOMESH and mesh type is TRIAS.

  • Now after this we will perform the 3D meshing for that go to the 3D>TETRAMESH select with ELEMENTS

PART2

CASE 2:

TetraMesh Generation Method: Quick Tetra Mesh/ Volume Tetra Mesh

Target Element size: 3 Units.

Tet Collapse: 0.15

  • Model is shown below:

  • Now it is a solid model so first we will delete the solid, for that go to the delete option then select solid and displayed.
  • After deleting solid component will look like this.

  • After that we will perform the defeaturing and autocleanup on the component.
  • After this we will perform TETRA MESHING for that the Target element size is given as 3 units.
  • The go to VIEW>BROWSER>HYPERMESH>UTILITY>QUICK TETRA:

  • Now you have to select the component and click on mesh.

CASE 3:

TetraMesh Generation Method: Quick Tetra Mesh/ Volume Tetra Mesh

Target Element size: 4 Units.

Tet Collapse: 0.15

  • The model is given below:

1.

  • First we will perform topology cleanup on it. To cleanup the geometry goto the GEOM>AUTOCLEANUP

  • Now after that assign the quality criteria as given.
  • Now we will perform the 3D tetra mesh on the component. Go to VIEW>BROWSER>HYPERMESH>UTILITY>QUICK TETRA:

  • So like this we will perform the meshing on all the components.
  • And the final model will look like this.

RESULTS:

  • The TERTA MESH is performed on the given component.
