Verification & Validation

Refine the Mesh

One of the ways we can check the validity of our analysis is by refining our mesh. If the values for our frequencies approach a limit, then we have arrived at our answer. If the values change drastically when we refine the mesh, then we need to refine the mesh further and we have not yet found an acceptable solution. We will refine the mesh by increasing the number of divisions in our edge sizing. In the Outline window, go to Mesh > Edge Sizing > Number of Divisions > 100. Also, go to Mesh > Edge Sizing 2 > Number of Divisions > 40. Our new mesh looks like this:
