PROCEDURE :
- Import the model.
- Create connector and Attach the various parts of the given model
- We have to make visible the connector option in that panel, ref below fig.
- As we see below there are mutliply operations has to be done on each specified area as mentioned.
-Mesh the given comp using *F12--Surf (displayed) only with Quad--Mesh. While doing certain task we can remesh the improper areas. Set and save the criteria file before meshing as per mentioned above.
- For each condition we have turn-on that particular comps surf-on, remaing will be turned off.
- we can always see in the components panel, if any new connector is made, it wil be visible properly with its type.
1. Right_Rail_2 & Front_truss_1:- Seam-Quad(angled+capped+L)
*1D/2D--Connectors--Seam-Quad(angled+capped+L)--create
2. Left_Rail_2 & Front_truss_1:- Quad elements
*1D/2D--Connectors--Seam-Quads--create
3. Front_truss_2, Front_truss_1 & Right_Rail_1:- Spot weld with 2 Layers and 5 mm Diameter
*1D/2D--Connectors--Spot--weld--create
4. Front_truss_2, Front_truss_1 & Left_Rail_1:- Hexa (Adhesive)
*1D/2D--Connectors--Seam-hexa(adhesive)--create - Give some width
5. Rear_truss_2 & Right_Rail_2:- Bolt Connector
*1D/2D--Connectors--Bolt--(Create hole, if none)--create
6. Rear_truss_2 & Left_Rail_2:- Bolt Connector
*1D/2D--Connectors--Bolt--(Create hole, if none)--create
7. Right_Rail_1 & Right_Rail_2:- Spot-weld with Rigid Elements
*1D/2D--Connectors--Spot--Rigid--create
8. Left_Rail_1 & Left_Rail_2:- Spot-weld with Spring Elements
*1D/2D--Connectors--Spot--Springs--create
9. Rest all the component left Join them with suitable connectors
