Hi all,

 

i am currently doing a FEA on truck chassis frame. In this regard, I have a model made up of assembled components and want to mesh the common surfaces having the same number of mesh seeds as shown in the figure. I have also attached a screenshot of the actual model where this has to be done along with the model file.

 

Thanks for the help in advance.

 

Kind Regards,

Shreyas

    You need work more to get good surface model. Have a look at my screenshots:

    In this example, I used : Surface Edit => Extend Surfaces

     

    HTH,

    Dear Nguyen-Dai,

     

    Thank you for your quick reply.

     

    I will follow the suggestions you have given and prepare the model. Can you also please suggest a method for meshing as well?

    Any help is duly appreciated.
