ABAQUS/CAE Tutorial: Controlling Mesh DensityHyonny KimOctober 2003
• Use Mesh Control options to selectively refine your mesh at regions of high stress gradients.
• Options such as:– Seed Part Instance (define
overall Mesh by Seed Size)– Seed Edge: by Number– Seed Edge: by Size– Seed Edge: Biased
are available. Apply these at edges to control element spacing BEFORE meshing the part
• Other tips:– Partition your part so as to
control mesh selectively in separate regions.
– Apply mesh to partitions you are interested in first, then mesh other partitions.
