Meshing the Assembly By default, the software assumes that components are bonded at their initial contact areas. The default contact type appears under Component Contacts (Connections folder) as Global Contact (-Bonded-Meshed independently-). In the Simulation study tree, right-click Mesh and select Create Mesh . In the PropertyManager, apply the recommended mesh settings. Mesh Parameters settings Standard mesh Selected Global Size Calculated by the mesh algorithm Tolerance Calculated by the mesh algorithm Automatic transition Selected Advanced settings Jacobian points (for solid mesh only) 16 points Automatic trials for solid (for solid mesh only) Selected Number of trials 3 Remesh failed parts independently Selected Mesh Quality High Under Options, select Run (solve) the analysis. Click to accept the values. The meshing process starts. When meshing is completed, the analysis starts automatically.
