Conformal Meshing of Multiple Domains in Contact
نویسنده
چکیده
The paper presents an inside-out method for conformal meshing of multiple domains in contact applicable to meshes consisting of arbitrary polyhedra. The method is automatic and does not require high-quality surface triangulation. It is an extension of AVL’s automatic polyhedral mesh generator FAME with an additional step during which the cells are distributed to their domains and the internal interfaces are captured. Several industrial examples are provided to demonstrate the potential of the method.

Dynamic Meshing Characteristics of Elliptic Cylinder Gear Based on Tooth Contact Analysis
As the most important working area of gear, teeth play the role of transmitting load and power. Tooth line and tooth profile are the two main characteristics of the tooth surface, which affect the shape of the tooth surface, tooth meshing characteristics and contact characteristics. Taking the elliptical cylinder gear pair in the reversing device of a new type of drum pumping unit as the resear...

In order to study the dynamic meshing characteristics of the elliptic cylinder gear and obtain the meshing error of the gear transmission system, the two-dimensional static contact analysis of the gear tooth surface is carried out by using ANSYS software, and the key parts of the contact area of the tooth surface are determined. Then, the dynamic meshing model of the elliptic cylinder gear is e...
متن کاملFlattening 3D Triangulations for Quality Surface Mesh Generation
A method of flattening 3D triangulations for use in surface meshing is presented. The flattening method supports multiple boundary loops and directly produces planar locations for the vertices of the triangulation. The general nonlinear least-square fit condition for the triangle vertices includes conformal (angle preserving) and authalic (area preserving) conditions as special cases. The metho...

متن کاملImproved Imprint and Merge for Conformal Meshing
This paper presents an algorithm for imprinting and merging adjacent parts. Imprint and merge is often used to facilitate generation of conformal meshes between adjacent parts. The algorithm tolerantly intersects the discretized boundary edges of adjacent faces to calculate the imprint Boolean. An input tolerance is used during the process to minimize the effect imprinting has on the meshing pr...
