HM-2030: Refining Topology to Achieve a Quality Mesh ? HM-2030: Refining Topology to Achieve a Quality Mesh ? In this tutorial, you will learn how to: ? Mesh the part to determine poor element quality ? Suppress small edges ? Split surfaces ? Remove interior fixed points ? Replace closely placed fixed points ? Create final mesh Topological details of the geometry may affect the quality of the mesh created from the surfaces. Some of these details may not reflect any major feature of the part’s shape, and can be removed without concern. When modifying the topology affects the shape of the surfaces, a compromise must be made between the part shape and the element quality necessary for the analysis. Other times, adding topological features that do not change the shape of the part may actually help create a better quality mesh. Exercise: Refining Topology to Achieve a Quality Mesh Step 1: ?Open the model file, clip_refine.hm. The model for this exercise is clip_refine.hm. Take a few moments to observe the model using the different visual options available in HyperMesh (rotation, zooming, etc.). Step 2: ?Create a preliminary mesh. 1. From the menu bar, click Mesh Create 2D AutoMesh to open the Automesh panel. 2. Set the selector type to surfs. 3. Go to the size and bias subpanel. 4. In the element size = field, type 2.5. 5. For mesh type:, select mixed. 6. Switch the meshing mode from interactive to automatic. 7. Click surfs displayed. 8. Click mesh to mesh the surfaces. Initial mesh on the defeatured clip model Step 3: ?Review the mesh quality. 1. Take a minute to rotate, zoom, and pan the model to review the mesh that was created. ?Note the locations where the mesh was not created in rows and columns of quads. 2. From the menu bar, select Mesh Check Elements Check Elements to open the Check Elements panel. 3. Go to the 2-d subpanel. 4. In the length field, type 1. 5. Click the length button to evaluate the minimum length. 6.
