TrueGrid® Finite Element Mesh of a Fictitious Starship

This model of a toy can be used to determine it's durability. It is constructed of all hexahedral brick elements, most of which are nearly orthogonal. The geometry was constructed in TrueGrid®. There are 10 parts. They form one contiguous model. The upper face of the disc forms a classic butterfly block mesh construction which was then smoothed using the elliptic solver.
