Since the spring ends with a ground surface, the cross-section is non-uniform at the end making a mapped mesh practially impossible. What you could do is cut the ends off and use Shared Topology to have a swept mesh in the center of the spring and the two non-uniform ends could have a tet mesh with a pyramid interface to hex elements. I suggest you don&#8217;t waste your time doing all that.&lt;\/p&gt;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-390748","reply","type-reply","status-publish","hentry"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/replies\/390748","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/replies"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/reply"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/replies\/390748\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=390748"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
