The wall size is only 8um, wheres the bulk diameter of the construct is 6.5mm. I tried to create a sweep mesh with 20 divisions, and a global element size of 1um, howvwer keep getting the error message &#8220;The mesh generation did not complete due to poor quality elements or incorrect input. Please try meshing with another mesh method or different mesh options. &#8220;. COuld this be due to having to many elements for the student version of the software?
