Advanced Features for Complex Geometries

Accurate meshing of complex geometries leads to better simulation outcomes, which in turn leads to more reliable, more optimized designs.

Key Features

Mesh Pitch Control with SAG

A smaller SAG (chordal deviation) value results in a higher number of divisions, producing a mesh that closely follows the geometry while using coarse mesh.

Fillet Flow Control

By recognizing and appropriately meshing fillets, this feature ensures the mesh accurately captures the smooth transitions in geometry.

Shape Simplification

Simplifying small fillets/chamfers reduces mesh complexity, which can lead to faster computation times without compromising accuracy.

Contact Surface Node Sharing

Proper node sharing on contact surfaces enhances the accuracy of simulations involving interactions between parts.

Recognition and Modeling of Bolts/Holes

Accurate bolt and hole modeling are critical for structural analysis. Automation speeds up the modeling process and ensures consistency.
