2D TOOLS, BASIC 3D TOOLS AND MESHING

IMPLEMENTING A MECHANICAL PART

The objective of this case study is implementing a mechanical part in order to study it through meshing analysis. The development of the model consists of the following steps:

  • Creating a profile of the part
  • Generating a volume defined by the profile
  • Generating the mesh for the part

At the end of this case study, you should be able to handle the 2D tools available in GiD as well as the options for generating meshes and visualizing the prototype.
