Some advice
Some advice to facilitate the adjustment of the mesh is presented below.
- The number of points of a geometric model can be large, and selecting each point in turn could easily become burdensome. Thus, it makes sense to clearly distinguish areas to be meshed with elements of the same size and then to select the points of these areas by criterion (Selection of points by means of a face, a volume, a region, etc.).
- To facilitate the mesh adjustment, it is also recommended to start by assigning one mesh point, usually the largest value, to all the points before starting the distribution of mesh points. In this way, one can avoid having points with no mesh information (otherwise, the mesh value assigned to such points is arbitrarily chosen by Flux).
Updating
After a mesh point is assigned to the point, the Mesh tab of the point dialog box is updated.
This is presented in the example below (the LARGE mesh point is assigned to the point n°4).
