CAD Import

Seeding Modification
Mesh Seeding: Minimum count of four allowed at holes for better mesh flow.

Simplify Geometry: Retain Edges Option


Retain Edges option is provided to lock edges of features while deleting edges during surface simplification. Automatic
identification of feature edges to lock is provided, which can be edited.

Initial Model and Auto-detected edges to lock

Node Create on Curve


An option to set a desired number of seeds on holes, made up of multiple edges, is supported. Curve/Edge selection
is provided to simply select all edges of desired holes. The holes are automatically detected and given count is applied
on them.

Extract Curve from 1D Element

l Curve extraction from 1D elements is supported to enable viewing 1D models in CAD systems
l Element type Bar/Beam will the displayed based on solver used
l An option is provided to create Smooth or Linear curve

2D Mesh Blend GUI


An option is provided to snap resulting mesh onto displayed CAD to guarantee that the mesh stays on CAD during
extensive manual operations.

Option to display the resulting size of mesh on surface edges is provided.

Remesh GUI
Improved hole shape handling for remesh to better mesh flow and quality.

Dropping nodes on nearest surface to retain initial geometry.

Tetra Mesh
Quality of tetra meshing is improved in Gradual method.
Transform & Copy
New option “+” is provided in Part text field for copy operation, to create a new part for each copy of the source part.
This helps in easier identification of parts when many number of copies are made.

Element Quality
Jacobian computation for higher order tria and tetra elements is supported. For basic tria and tetra elements,

Jacobean values it shows as 1.


Remesh Features in Post-Wrap
l Coarsening or refining of an existing mesh by remeshing the entire component with higher or lower element
size. Localized coarsening or refining is also possible by selecting few elements for remeshing.
l Improving the mesh quality of input mesh. Areas where mesh quality needs to be improved can be remeshed to
get better quality.
l The output is good quality triangular mesh.
l If the input has varied mesh sizes, remeshing with varied sizes can be achieved by way of Relative remeshing
technique.
l Feature Angle and Geometrical Error fields are provided to get desired mesh quality capturing curvatures well.
