Problem in generating HEX mesh
Problem in generating HEX mesh
(OP)
Hi
I am attaching CrackTrail.cae file for perusal. I want to mesh the 'Main' solid part in the model with quadratic hex mesh. For some reason, CAE is not allowing that.
Eventually I would like to do define a crack in the model and so I need HEX mesh for the solids. Is there anyway I can get around this problem and generate a HEX mesh for the solids.
Thanks in advance.

In my point of view, it could be better to use tetra- not hex-

For hex meshing there is no "magic bullet", a true 100% quality hex mesher for complex volumes (though others may disagree!), those meshers that do claim to do this all have their short comings.
