GAMBIT Introduction

The length of the course is two days.  Please note that GAMBIT training is now only arranged on-demand, since it has been superseded by our DesignModeler and ANSYS Meshing training.

Training is from 9.15am to 5.00pm on each day.

Lunch and refreshments will be provided.

Prerequisites

The course assumes you have no prior experience of working with any of our software.

Learning Objectives

By the end of this course you should be able to:

  • Create 2D and 3D geometries using GAMBIT, (our geometry creation and mesh generation package),
  • Mesh 2D and 3D geometries using the structured and unstructured grid approach,
  • Examine the quality of the mesh.

Course Agenda

All topics are covered using a combination of lectures and hands-on sessions.

Day 1: Geometry Creation and CAD Import

Lectures and Hands-on:

  • Introduction to the Company
  • Introduction to GAMBIT
  • Geometry Operations in GAMBIT
  • CAD / CAE Data Import and Geometry Cleanup
  • Semi-Automated Cleanup Tools

Day 2: Meshing

Lectures and Hands-on:

  • Edge / Face Meshing and Mesh Quality,
  • Volume Meshing
  • Using Sizing Functions and Boundary Layers
  • Meshing Strategies
  • (Optional) GAMBIT journalling

Workshop:

Trainees have the opportunity of working on preprocessing their own modelling problems with the help from a member of our technical support staff.
