Hi,

 

I am struggling to create a hexa mesh (it must be hexa) of a brain. I have a STL file and a 2D Surface mesh. No matter what I try I cannot 'fill' the volume mesh. I can do a tetra mesh but require a hexa. I have tried Hypermesh and SimLab.

 

Thanks

    Hi npb,

     

    Currently SimLab doesn't support automated way of carrying out hex meshing for all components. Only for axis symmetric components hex meshing can be done in SimLab . For other components we have to use manual approach , by breaking the bodies , extruding and joining is the other method of doing the hex meshing.

     

    You can share a screenshot of the model , we can give our comments based on that.

     

    Thanks

    Siddharth
