When we have sharp points like this we often have to fill them to create a good geometric model. Since we are only moving the surface a small distance over an area where there will be little to no flow, this is a valid approach. This is commonly done, for example where the tires meet the road. There is a similar tangent contact that we often close to create the model.&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;We all started somewhere, some of us just started a long time ago ????.
