Hello everyone,
I've been using catia for a few months and I've been in front of the following problem.
I should perform a structural analysis of a 7-metre long aluminum tube, 55 cm diameter section and 0.5 cm thick. when within the generative structural analysis environment an octree mesh is automatically created for my object, but if I analyze the quality of this mesh by activating the display for coloring of the mesh comes out all red and the analysis made with this mesh is affected by too many errors. the only way to solve this problem with this type of mesh is to reduce its size until the size of the mesh is comparable with the thickness of the tube. In this way, however, given the large dimensions of the tube (length 7 meters) the number of elements that make up the mesh is disproportionate, creating problems both from the analysis point of view (the computer does not make it and crashes) and graphics (I can not move without having shots in the display). My question here is:
What is the type of mesh to apply to a body with these size features to have good results? Is it possible to adjust the size of a mesh 3d along one of the three directions?(in this case along the radial size of the tube).
I apologize for the papyrus that I wrote and thank you in advance for a possible answer
