To create various type of connectors for the given below parts:
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 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
8. Left_Rail_1 & Left_Rail_2:- Spot-weld with Spring Elements
PROCEDURE:
STEP 1: To mesh the given component with the target element 5 units
GIVEN MODEL:

AFTER 2D AUTOMESH:

STEP 2: To connect various type of connectors in this component
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 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:


7. Right_Rail_1 & Right_Rail_2:- Spot-weld with Rigid Elements:


8. Left_Rail_1 & Left_Rail_2:- Spot-weld with Spring Elements:


FINAL OUTPUT:

CONCLUSION:
The given model has been meshed with the targeted element and the creation of connector in various parts of the given model are updated.
