Boolean Remove with one body inside another - simlab

Rita Granzotto

Please, I need help to create a volume mesh just in the shell.

I have two meshed bodies, the first one (pink color) is inside the second body (blue color).

I had applied Boolean operation (Boolean remove with merge) to get just the resulting shell (the dark blue region). The result was exactly what I expected:

I want  to volume mesh just this dark blue shell (inside it will be filled with the pink body), but when volume mesh is generated, the whole body is filled and occur intersections between them, like in this image below

 How can I create a volume mesh just for the shell, please?

SimLab creates solid mesh based on closed volumes. If there are two bodies, with one body completely inside the other body, select both the bodies, right-click and 'Merge' them. Then tet mesh the body with 'Fill inside cavity volume' turned off. This option will be under the advanced options in the tet mesh dialog. Hope this helps!
