Week 5 Challenge : Surface wrap on Automotive Assembly
## Steps for developing surface wrap: # Step A: 1. The model of engine has too many ring shaped objects which are created to give a fillet like edge. These rings are inwanted items in the model. So the first step involve is identifying the rings and deleting them. The air filter pipes and the belt of the belt drive is…

Week 4 Challenge : CFD Meshing for BMW car
** Meshing of BMW Model 6: Step A: Geometric Cleanup 1. The BMW car is symmetric about a plane. Hence to reduce the efforts of geometry cleanup, delete the other half of car. The symmetric plane passes through front hood, roof, rear hood. 2. The front grills have too many openings for the purpose of air circulations. So…

Week 3 Challenge : CFD meshing on Turbocharger
## Report Step A: Geometry Cleanup 1. This CAD file is modelled in the way such that the assembled components are manufactured. This means that there are different types of contacts between the two components. The components may share a common surface. Or if 2 components were press fitted then their surfaces are overlapping. …

Week 2 Challenge : Surface meshing on a Pressure valve
** Meshing Steps 1. Geometry cleanup. Serach for single, double, triple cons. Double cons means a surface is adjacent to another 2 surfaces. Single cons are to be eliminated. Triple cons means overlapped surfaces. 2. Go to tools> checks>Geometry>execute. By doing this, the number…

Week 3.5 - Deriving 4th order approximation of a 2nd order derivative using Taylor Table method
** Taylor Table: The general concept of Taylor table comes from the Numerical differentiation. We know that, f(x+h)=f(x)+h*f'(x)+h^2*f''(x)/2!+h^3*f'''(x)/3!+h^4*f''''(x)/4!+h^5*f'''''(x)/5!.... Now to find f'(x), we can modify above series f'(x)=f(x+h)-f(x)/h - h*f''(x)/2! - h^2*f'''(x)/3!..... In case of finding differentiation…
