    Hi,

    I found that it is due to some of 2D elements, but when i tried to tetramesh that it is showing that it is getting meshed but when i mask the 2Delements i'm finding that it is not getting meshed.How to do tetramesh for that parts??

    for that parts it is showing as 11000 elements are outside of mesh volumes and discarded and how to deal with self intersection of parts?

    Hi jahnavi,

     

    check if there are any intersections in the 2D mesh and try to remesh without any intersections.

     

    Using the new mesh, do a tetra mesh.

    Hi,

     

    Go to Tools page>> Penetrations and Intersections>> check for intersections and try to remove them automatically.

     

    If you still see an issue with meshing, share the file with us.

    Hi Jahnavi,

     

    Is this extracted through STL?

     

    I see lot of free edges and the model is not an enclosed solid. You need to work on closing the voids.

     

    Go to Tools>>Edges>> Find edges. You will see more than 100 free edges on your model.

    Hi Jahnavi,

     

    There are free edges at several regions. You need to repair these regions. does .max file writes elements or surfaces?

     

    If it is surfaces then it will be to correct.

    Hi Jahnavi,

     

    Were you able to fix the void regions in your model?

    Jahnavi,

     

    You may have to mesh it manually or use tetra elements. 

     

    try to achieve a closed volume solid so that it will be easy for you to mesh.
