      Hello

      Is it possible to choose the order element of mesh in Refine?

      Thanks,

      Hello, 

      Currently this is not possible in Discovery. You can refer this Mesh Evaluation (ansys.com) & How to check mesh quality in Discovery Refine Stage - Ansys Knowledge to monitor mesh statistics evaluate mesh quality.

      Regards,

      Hello,

      Which is used by default, linear or quadratic ?

      Thanks,

      Hello, 

      For structural analysis we always use higher-order elements in Refine. If you check the structural mesh in Refine, you can see that the element edges are curved, .i.e. the elements are quadratic.

      Use higher-order elements in Refine for structural analysis.
