Introduction to NX: Meshing

This beginner’s guide walks step by step through meshing the components of a simple circuit card assembly. In addition to demonstrating the meshing process for tetrahedral, brick, shell, and concentrated mass elements, the tutorial also teaches basics such as idealizing the geometry, assigning materials, controlling mesh sizes, and generating geometry-based connection elements. Once you have mastered these meshing concepts, be sure to watch for the next installment of NX CAE tutorials, which will cover using assembly FEMs and setting up loads and boundary conditions.
