Hi!
Some thoughts after having a peek at the latest runs attempts:
- Wrapping is probably not a good idea here, since your CAD is higher resolution than the result of the wrapping operation
- The meshing tool that you are using already is Snappy.
- I echo Nolan’s point with respect to the platforms on the base of the tire. I’d go even further and suggest removing the threads and spokes for the first runs, as you get more used to the process (like what was done in this tutorial)
- Using symmetry for the first passes is also probably a good idea (again, like in the tutorial)
- For the purposes of a bachelor thesis, you are likely going to want more control over the mesh, so I’d say that hex parametric is more fitting. Do go through existing resources such as this and this threads.
Cheers
