FEAview Construction and Tessellation of a Bottle

 

Starting with wires (dark blue), we build an inner and outer surface for the base. Surfaces are shown in pink. Surfaces and volumes are shown in the B-rep mode.

 

We create a volume (light blue) for the base of the bottle.

 

And now we create inner and outer surfaces between the bottom of the neck and the top of the neck.
We create two more volumes: the neck, and between the neck and the base.

To show what it now looks like in solid and wireframe mode.

 

We have tessellated each of the three volumes with three layers of HEXA elements.
