2. Specify element type and constants
3. Specify material properties
4. Specify geometry
5. Mesh geometry
6. Specify boundary conditions
7. Solve!
8. Postprocess the results

Step 5: Mesh geometry

As discussed in the previous step, we'll first mesh the subsection AEFG that we just created.

...

We'll use the previously-defined parameters NDIV_X, NDIV_Y and SIZE_Z to set the mesh size along edges. The table below describes what each parameter is and the value we have assigned to it. | \

Parameter || Value || Description |

NDIV_X

3

No. of divisions for edges along x

NDIV_Y

6

No. of divisions for edges along y

SIZE_Z

5

Size of divisions for edges along z
