Week 9-Creation of 1D Connectors Challenge
Week 9-Creation of 1D Connectors Challenge
Aim:-
Model the given components by proper clean up & perform meshing & connections as per criteria.
Procedure that has followed during this challenge.
1. check any free edges & unessary surfacers are present in the surface.
2. defeture the model which is less than minimum length.
3. now meshing stage to performe surface by surface by clearing quality criteria with proper mesh flow.
4. assign the connections specified in the reqirement.
Part - I
The below captures will represents mid surface along with mesh.
For meshing 2D-automesh -surface-mesh
i. Front_Truss_1


ii. Front_Truss_2


iii. Reinf_Plate


iv.Right_Rail_1

V. Right_Rail_2


vi. Left_Rail_1


vii. Left_Rail_2


viii. Rear_Truss_1


ix.Rear_Truss_2


Total part quality check for all mid surface represented below capture.

Part -II.
For all mid surfaces & mesh connections are assigned as per reqirement.
for connections - 2d-connections -select type of connection- select nodes/elements-select geometrys -connect.
case 1.
Right_Rail_2 & Front_truss_1:- Seam-Quad(angled+capped+L)

case 2. Left_Rail_2 & Front_truss_1:- Quad elements.

3. Front_truss_2, Front_truss_1 & Right_Rail_1:- Spot weld with 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.

Final quality check after assigning mesh & connections.

Conclussion:-
Heance conclude that the model has performed mesh & conections as specified in the requirement.
Note:-
connections & with out connections ( only mesh) files are attached seperatly
Kindly review & provide feedback accordingly.
