ICEM CFD Meshing Problems: Hexa Dominant -- CFD Online Discussion Forums

June 30, 2006, 12:34	ICEM CFD Meshing Problems: Hexa Dominant	#1
Evan Guest Posts: n/a	I'm using the different unstructured meshing techniques in ICEM CFD and finding that Hexa-Dominant gives me unusuable meshes. The tetra and hexa-core give me meshes which have nice stress distributions. I'm using the mesh created by ICEM for a stress analysis problem using nonlinear materials with large strain applied. The simulation is a soft tissue (non linear material) cylinder being compressed by two rigid platforms. The cylinder is experiencing uniaxial compression of 40% strain. Has anyone else encountered problems with the HexaDominant mesh? I've tried smoothing the mesh, but to no avail. Evan
