Define a mesh refinement rule along a specified polyline. Mesh elements in the
vicinity of this polyline are refined. Polyline mesh refinement is often used to refine the
mesh under a cable, wire or a transmission line.
On the Mesh tab, in the
Refinement rules group, click the Polyline icon.
Specify the polyline.
To specify the corner points manually, specify the corner points in the
table.
To import the corner points from file, click Import
points.
In the Radius field, enter a value for the radius to
specify the mesh area that is to be refined.
In the Mesh size field, enter a value for the mesh
element length.
Enter a unique label for the point refinement.
Click Create to create the polyline refinement
rule and to close the dialog.
The mesh refinement rule is added to the model tree,
on the Configuration tab.
[Optional] Hide the display of mesh rules in the 3D view.
On the 3D View
context tab, on the Display options tab, in the
Entity display group, click the Meshing rules icon.
