Dear Ansys,

Hi Gijoys4v,

I would try:

1) Split the geometry into 2 parts, one is the region you want a very small mesh, and the section part is the remaining geometry. Then apply a bonded contact between them. This would be the case of your image since you don't have common nodes on the two regions' boundaries.

2) Use adaptive meshing, assign a very small element size to the middle region, and relatively coarse mesh at the remaining region. Adaptive mesh setting is available under mesh settings. But this won't provide exactly the same mesh as you show.

Hi Mr. Wenlong 

Thanks for the reply. Is there any problem in the step you mentioned, if it(the model) is a for layered thin sheet

Hi Mr. Wenlong

can you check this link too

Hi Gijoys4v,

I don't see a restriction of modeling a layered sheet.

Regarding the second question, since it is a different topic, could you please open a new thread, and provide more information, like the material properties, the model set up, numerical settings and so on. Only then can I provide meaningful suggestions other than wild guess. 

Thanks!

Hi,

In my opinion, you should check face split option in tools of Design modular. You can check videos on YT for the same. It helped me refining mesh in a particular region with default mesh on other parts of the object.

Thanks and Regards,
