I finally found a pretty satisfying mesh and managed to achieve very good results with it.
I am now confronted with another problem. I would like to take non-equi biaxial residual stresses into account and study their influence. Therefore I would like to subject the lateral surface of the...
Hi,
Thank you for your help. I already tried a similar mesh but I would really like to mesh with Hex.
To answer your questions
1. Indeed the load could be non-axisymmetric, that is the point of my work.
2. Cheese is just a funny name I gave to my part. (I'm french...)
3. We are not very into...
Here it is. That is the model I am working with (partition + tet-mesh). What I did is I partitioned edges then faces. Then I seed Edges sets.
Thank you for your help.

yes, but CAE refuse to mesh my partition with Hex-elements using the classic mesh tool. I also tried Bottom-up mesh (Revolve) but it won't mesh probably because he can't tie each region's mesh due to the gap of density.
Thank you very much for your answers, I'd better not use different parts to avoid discontinuities but I have really been trying a lot of different options of meshing. But nothing really satisfying.
There must be a way to create the smooth transitions as seen in the attached picture in my first...
Hello,
I am studying sharp indentation on a quarter cylinder corner in Abaqus and I am not satisfied with my mesh, which is currently using Tet elements (with edge seeding in the corner). I would like to use bricks (Hex element) and refine the mesh in the contact region. I already tried several...
