Hello guys,
 

I'm now trying to remesh my model via hypermesh.

Let me briefly introduce my research process.

I had a framework elastomer sample, and I sent it to do the microCT scanning.

After some post analysis, I got a .stl file which is meshed by the vertices and edges.

However, the mesh from .stl itself are not what I want.

There are too many elements and the quality is bad that cause my abaqus not responding.

Is there any methods that I can remesh my existed .stl file via hypermesh?
Thanks a lot~

    Hi Joanne,

     

    Go to automesh panel > set the selector to 'elems' > select displayed elements and > change the size of the mesh as desired > click mesh. 

    For finer mesh you can try changing the element density value.
