MSC Apex Best Practice Webinar – Mid-Surfacing & Shell Meshing of Complex Geometries

by Dr Steffan Evans

MSC Apex Best Practice Webinar – Mid-Surfacing & Shell Meshing of Complex Geometries

We recently presented a webinar ‘Mid-Surfacing & Shell Meshing of Complex Geometries’ in conjunction with MSC Software, looking at best practices in MSC Apex (see below for the full video recording).

This was focused on a typical aerospace component, a thin-walled machined shear panel, with the following,

  • Multiple Features
  • Variable Thickness
  • Fastener Holes

We highlighted a couple of different approaches to maximise efficiency for this type of structural component,

Workflow 1 – ‘CAD to Results’

  • Geometry Preparation (09:43)
  • Mesh Definition (23:16)
  • Attribution and Verification (34:26)

Workflow 2 – ‘Legacy FEA Model’

  • Orphan Model Manipulation (49:00)

A Q&A session was held at the end of the webinar.
