Mesh the Most Challenging Geometry

Mesh Creation and Editing

0D and 1D

  • Quickly create and manage beam cross sections
  • Connections, bolts, and masses

2D

  • Free or mapped meshes
  • Analyzes surfaces to produce a better mesh

3D

  • Use penta elements to transition from hex to tetras

Mixed Models

  • Combine 0D, 1D, 2D, and 3D elements in a single model

Mesh Controls

  • Control mesh around holes, fillets, and more
  • Associative to geometry updates

Model Checking

  • Solver-based element checks
  • Achieve more accurate solutions
