Hex Mesh for Irregular Objects

I am having trouble meshing the components shown below. In Pic 5, cut plane is used to divide the solid for the meshing process. In Pic 6, it shows the object is not able to be meshed because the number of seeds for one surface does not match the other. Any advice? In Pic 7, the end of the figure is unable to be meshed. Is it possible to hex mesh this?

 

Thanks,

    Hi,

    it is possible ofcourse

    in fig.7 the two tips should be made as half of sphere (you search forum again for how to mesh a sphere)

    in fig.6 mesh procedure should be done from the left portion

    If you would like to do full-hexa mesh for that geometry, I would like to say 'Good luck' to you image/emoticons/default_smile.png' alt=':)' srcset='/emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x' width='20' height='20'>

    But it's possible to do a hexa-dominant mesh and you have to accept TET-PENTA-PYRAMID for some zones.
