12. Mesher

RecurDyn/Mesher is a toolkit. It is closely related to RecurDyn/FFlex. RecurDyn/Mesher performs the mesh work of desired rigid body as the optimized type to perform the FFlex modeling and analysis after connecting with the MBD analysis from starting the rigid body modeling. RecurDyn/Mesher uses the mesh core by CM2 Mesh Tools of computing objects which have the Advancing Frontal method as the basic access method. It creates the FE mesh which is kept the type to the edge and surface of rigid body geometry.

It supports the tool which is to keep the joint and force and to create the contact patch set used in the rigid body modeling. So, it is possible to easy modeling.

It supports meshing many geometries in the mesh mode. Geometries are meshed one by one. If another geometry is meshed, the previous mesh remains. The shape of the previous mesh can be applied to the new mesh. The new mesh can be created in the same shape as the Line Set and Patch Sets.
