Mesh Generation
Multiple meshing strategies.
Topology Based Meshing
Body fitted anisotropic surface mesh.
Ennova is a complete meshing tool. Depending on the type of analysis and solver used, different types of grids need to be generated for both surface meshing and volume meshing.
Geometry also plays a role in determining the type of mesh generated. If the geometry can be repaired, then the topology-based body-fitted mesh can be used. For very dirty complex geometry, such as production data, the shrink-wrap mesher provides a convenient way to extract the air/solid volume. If the geometry has different length scales in its principal directions, anisotropic elements may be needed.
