Hexmesh of model with multiple fillets

hiranwale_bharat

Hello,

 

I was wondering to hexmesh of a model , a part of which is shown in the image attached.(Image 1 Grey)

 

I always find myself in trouble when I have such fillets in the model.

 

Is it possible to make this mappable? I can use pentas upto 5% also. defeaturing is not allowed.

 

Also find attached another image (image 2 Blue). Which has fillets running over entire length of model.

 

What should be the approach for hexmeshing such objects with fillets?

 

Sorry for not sharing model and only the image.

 

Regards,

Bharat

1st model: it's possible to make Hex mesh

2nd model: By keeping all fillets, 'Good luck' to you for Hex mesh!

Hi Bharat,

Please see this thread as the topic is relevant to your subject.

 

Also refer this document which shows the various options available for 3D meshing and it contains video tutorials also:

@ Q Nguyen-Dai ,

 

Hello,

I am digging an old topic here. Can you please share the meshing procedure for the above part? I am specially concerned about the corner fillets at the bottom region.

 

Thanks and regards,

Bharat
