Comments
The video below demonstrates the steps to mesh the geometry using = Hexahedral elements which look like boxes. Hexahedral (or hex) elements yie= ld higher accuracy compared with the default tetrahedral (or tet) elements = for the same number of nodes.
Summary of steps in the above video:
Engineering Intent: (This step necessary if structural template was not = selected in beginning of tutorial)
Mesh Controls - Element Shape
Size Control - Body Sizing & Face Sizing
In the following video, we analyze the metrics of the mesh, such as the = element quality the skewness.
