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 %	15

Create connector and Attach the various parts of the given model

1. Right_Rail_2 & Front_truss_1:- Seam-Quad(angled+capped+L)
2. Left_Rail_2 & Front_truss_1:- Quad elements
3. Front_truss_2, Front_truss_1 & Right_Rail_1:- Spot weldwith 2 Layers and 5 mm Diameter
4. Front_truss_2, Front_truss_1 & Left_Rail_1:- Hexa (Adhesive)
5. Rear_truss_2 & Right_Rail_2:- Bolt Connector
6. Rear_truss_2 & Left_Rail_2:- Bolt Connector
7. Right_Rail_1 & Right_Rail_2:- Spot-weld with Rigid Elements
8. Left_Rail_1 & Left_Rail_2:- Spot-weld withSpring Elements
9. Rest all the component left Join them with suitable connectors

Step 1: - Import Cad model.

Step 2: - Meshing: - Mesh the all component with given quality criteria

Step 3: - Create a connectors to the parts as given.

1) Seam-Quad(angled+capped+L)

2) Quad elements

3) Spot weld with 2 Layers and 5 mm Diameter

4) Hexa (Adhesive)

5) Bolt Connector

6) Spot-weld with Rigid Elements

7) Spot-weld with Spring Elements

1) Seam-Quad(angled+capped+L)

Seam quad connector was created in between Right_Rail_2 & Front_truss_1

2) Quad elements

3) Spot weld with 2 Layers and 5 mm Diameter

4) Hexa (Adhesive)

5) Bolt Connector

6) Spot-weld with Rigid Elements

7) Spot-weld with Spring Elements

Result:-

All connectors are successfully created.
