    There are many option to create mesh.Direct Hex mesh or 2d to 3d mesh.It would be nice if you can share more screenshot showing thickness of part .

    Hi Rahul Rajan

     

    Thanks for your reply.I have attached the step file.The file has 2 halves top and bottom.The Left and Right regions are symmetric,so i need to mesh only one of them.

    At the curved regions,i am facing a problem

    I have need a hex mesh(3D) for the entire part.

    The  is attached below.

    Along the curved regions,i am not able to mesh as there is proper connection between the source and the destination.For Example,in the image XYZ i have source elements on the face ABCD and i am taking CDEF as the destination face,then there are 2 curves BE and AF( below BE) which are the connections between the source and destination.But in my geometry there is only one of those 2 curves so software says the connections are not sufficient .

     

    Also, if i generate a mesh for image XYZ,the elements at the line CD the elements  are very bad as all elements are crushed together.Could you suggest a solution to that.

     

    I can't use the drag option as radii are different.So please suggest any technique.Also if there is a tutorial to this kind of problem,please give a link to that.I  could not find myself.

    Hi

    Looks that it can be mapped as a sweep boss.

    Let' try it tomorrow...

     

    I found it!

    please refer to this  (I think you can finish it, base on my mappings)
