Image-Based Simulation Workshop

Submitted by Simpleware on

WORKSHOP: Image-based Simulation for Biomechanics, Materials Applications, and Reverse Engineering



This workshop is aimed at those interested in 3D reconstruction from radiology images, and in using 3D image data (as obtained from CT, Micro-CT, MRI and Ultrasound) to generate Rapid Prototyping, CAD, and Finite Element models.



Participants will learn:

•    how to generate computer models from your 3D image data

•    how to import and position CAD files in the image data

Generating quadratic tetrahedral (tet10) meshes from .stl surface models

Hi iMechanica-experts,

I'm working with soft tissue models of abdominal organs (e.g. liver) for surgery simulation. These models are alway constructed from segmented surface files (triangles, e.g. .stl). I'm devloping an algorithm that uses isometric quadratic tetrahedral (tet10) elements (mainly in order to reduce volume locking). Now I'd like to generate a tet10 mesh from the surface mesh.

Meshing a block with spherical void inside in Ansys

I have a squre block and inside it there is an sphere. I want to mesh
the whole assembly. I can mesh the sphere but when i try to mesh the
squre block with the spherical hole it cant mesh and says "it cant
select the source and target face". I also tried to devide it into 8
parts. That helped me to mesh the sphere but i cant mesh the squre with
spherical hole with that too. So please anyone can help me out.

how to create mesh of two volume blocks of different sizes glued to gether in ansys

Submitted by gvizay on

hi 

i am doing my PhD in  "smart composites"

i am working on piezoelectric composite materails... 

i will be greatful to you if anyone can suggest me  how to model the piezoelectric materials in ANSYS.i am having some doubts in meshing and giving the voltage input to ANSYS.

if i directly glue actuator to the beam using volume glue  then i am getting problem while meshing volume as "invalid topology for mapped brick mesh". how can i glue two volumes in ansys and avoid the problem in meshing???
