Selective mesh

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Ho guys... I have a complex 3D geometry, composed by 2 different domains. 1 domain is pretty smooth and easy
to mesh; the second presents thin areas, meshables only with finer option. Can I mesh the model with two different size option, one for each domain?
Thanks

Hi

you can add as many size and dimension you want to a mesh node, and then define different mesh sizes for different entities. Still "my way" when I have complex geoemtry is to divide it into several sub-domains, by splitting the geometry, you add a few internal boundaries, but yu gain in selectivity for your meshing strategy

Good luck
