Use the Boundary Layer tool to define boundary layer mesh settings on selected surfaces.
Use the Volume Mesh tool to define local volume mesh sizes on individual solids. You can also choose different volume mesh settings, such as defining layers on thin regions and quality controls.
Use the Extrusion tool to create hex mesh on extruded geometry. This is useful for creating mesh for 2D simulations and layered mesh on simplified geometry.
Use the Zones tool to define mesh refinement settings by shape. These controls provide the capability to get mesh refinement on surfaces enclosed in defined boxes, spheres, and cylinders.
Use the No Boundary Layer tool to define surfaces on which boundary layers should not be created nor imprinted.
Use the Advanced Create dialog in the Setup Browser to create mesh controls for selected entity groups.
Use the context menu on the legend to deactivate mesh controls. This excludes them from consideration when processing the solution.
Create mesh on individual surfaces interactively and edit elements to fix issues or improve quality.
Use the Repair tool to find, review, and fix issues in the mesh.
Use the Volume tool to run a surface + volume mesh on the entire model.
Use the Quality Report tool to check the quality of surface and volume mesh.
Remove all mesh from the model.
Use the Element Quality view to review element quality while simultaneously editing your model.
Use the Fix tool to improve the quality of an FE (discrete/mesh) model.
Prepare your model and run the simulation.
Post-process the simulation results by creating visualizations and measurements.
Automate simulation processes with templates and utility scripts.
Once the baseline model is prepared, you can define morph volumes, morph geometry, create design shapes and run DOE studies. These tool work for both AcuSolve and ultraFluidX-based workflows.
More resources for AcuSolve and ultraFluidX solvers.
Generate surface/volume mesh by defining mesh controls, or interactively create and edit 2D surface mesh.
Use the Mesh Controls tools to define size controls, refinements, and boundary layer controls to be considered for surface and volume meshing.
