3 WS2-3 PAT312, Workshop 2, December 2006 Copyright 2007 MSC.Software Corporation Objective: In this exercise you will mesh the 3D Hybrid Microcircuit model in two steps. You will use both the IsoMesh and Paver mesher options to create a surface mesh. These surface elements will then be swept into solid elements. Model Description : In this exercise you will create a mesh for the 3D hybrid microcircuit model. You will use a finite element construction method called 2 1/2 D-meshing to create your 3D finite element model. This algorithm is an extension to the IsoMesh or Paver algorithms because it will create elements where no geometry exists. The mesh will be created in a two step process. First the surface geometry will be meshed using both the IsoMesh and Paver options. The resulting surface elements will be used as a template to create a solid mesh of hexahedral elements. Finally the quadrilateral surface elements are deleted.

4 WS2-4 PAT312, Workshop 2, December 2006 Copyright 2007 MSC.Software Corporation Exercise Overview: 1. Open the existing database named microcircuit.db. 2. Using Show/Surface/Normal verify that all surface normals point in the +Z direction. If necessary, edit normals using Edit/Surface/Reverse. 3. Delete Surface 1 by using Delete/Any and selecting Surface Mesh the regions containing the devices using Create/Mesh/Surface and the IsoMesh Mesher. 5. Sweep/Element/Normal to create device hex elements. 6. Switch to the Paver Mesher and mesh the remaining trimmed surface geometry. 7. Sweep/Element/Normal with One Way Bias in the Z direction from all surface quads to create substrate hex elements. 8. Use Finite Elements/Delete/Any and the Select Menu filter to delete all surface quad elements. 9. Unclutter the display by hiding labels. 10. Quit MSC.Patran.

Select the name microcircuit.db from the Database List box c. Click OK. d. From the Menu Bar select Viewing/Named View Options. e. Select isometric_view then Close. f. Select Viewing/Fit View to readjust the display, if necessary. This will provide a convenient view for verifying normal vectors. b c e d a e f

6 WS2-6 PAT312, Workshop 2, December 2006 Copyright 2007 MSC.Software Corporation Step 2: Verify Surface Normal Verify that surface normals point in the +Z direction. a. Select the Geometry Applications button. b. Set the Action, Object, and Method to Show/Surface/Normal. c. Select Set Normal Vector Length and enter a Normal Vector Length of d. Click in the Surface List Box and drag a rectangle around all the displayed geometry. Select. e. Apply. (All normal vectors should point in the global +Z direction.) Note: If some surfaces have incorrect normal vectors use Edit/Surface/Reverse in the Geometry form to point the normals in the +Z direction. b c d a c e
