Hello! I`m trying to mesh and analize motorcycle frame model for static loads. Model is ready (made of solids and weldments) and forces are applied, but i have stuck with meshing and calculation.
Model has two configurations:
- full with slots for weld beads in tail
- simplified with combined parts in tail (now i work with it)
Geometry Analysis shows that model has no gemometry-related errors. SolidWorks version is 2016.
And problems are following:
1) It always fails to make full solid-based mesh for some bodies of model.
2) When i try to make half from solids and half from beams - then i get error that "one or more joint lie inside solid" and undefined bonded contact sets error.
How should i to fix this model for meshing?
Hi Kirill,
As a quick fix to your meshing issue, you can use "incompatible" mesh.
For instance, I used it in your model wherein all part are treated as solid (please see the image below).
Please let me know if it addressed your question.
