In the few videos I have seen when it comes to mesh, they do things differently. What I mean is that some simply generate the mesh, others in the &#8220;Element Size&#8221; cell, they put a small number (like 5mm). Others in the &#8220;Sizing tab&#8221;, they put &#8220;Fine&#8221; in the &#8220;Span Angle Center&#8221;. To me those two things are the same. Are they needed? Which one is let&#8217;s say necessary to have better results. Also in another video, this one &#8220;https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=zPI3-dyvpEY&#8221;, they click insert &#8220;method&#8221;, which creates &#8220;automatic method&#8221; in the mesh and then they click the whole body and also the insert &#8220;sizing&#8221; and then they click the corners. My question is, what&#8217;s the point of all of that and are they needed? What do those extra insertions do to the end result? <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"x4k7w5x x1h91t0o x1h9r5lt x1jfb8zj xv2umb2 x1beo9mf xaigb6o x12ejxvf x3igimt xarpa2k xedcshv x1lytzrv x1t2pt76 x7ja8zs x1qrby5j\">Thank you to all who answer!<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-286367","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry","topic-tag-ansysworkbench-ansys-staticstructural","topic-tag-mesh"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_subscription":["286158","13640","88"],"_bbp_author_ip":["23.217.200.46"]," _bbp_last_reply_id":["0"]," _bbp_likes_count":["0"],"_btv_view_count":["3521"],"_bbp_topic_status":["unanswered"],"_bbp_status":["publish"],"_bbp_topic_id":["286367"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27791"],"_bbp_engagement":["88","13640","286158"],"_bbp_voice_count":["3"],"_bbp_reply_count":["2"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["286475"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["286475"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2023-05-31 08:01:33"]},"test":"nmakarogloutuc-gr"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/286367","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/286367\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=286367"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
