Suppression of Small Geometry Features
This option controls how small geometry features are meshed into segments, triangles and tetrahedra (where applicable).
- Default
- This option creates a mesh using the standard mesh size. To create an accurate presentation of the model, the mesh can potentially contain a number of very small mesh elements.
- Optimise
- This option creates a mesh with an improved mesh quality for small features (for example, long narrow slivers or faces that are close together).
- Ignore
- This option creates a mesh that ignores small details in the model at a possible cost of accurate model representation. This option may at times allow the meshing of faces that otherwise cannot be meshed with the default settings.
- Geometry smaller than [%]
- Specifies the limit to what is considered a small feature. The limit is expressed as a percentage of the largest mesh size1. If the geometry detail is smaller than the limit, it is either optimised or ignored.
