When I tried running the sweep, I noticed that the meshing step is performed again on each iteration. Taking into account that the same geometry\/configuration is used for all iterations of the sweep (only the source port\/mode are changing) and since this meshing is the step that takes longer when the simulation is running, I would like to know if there is a way to &#8220;reuse&#8221; the mesh and avoid having to do the meshing step on each iteration.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt\">Thank you for taking the time to read this \ud83d\ude42<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-364667","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_subscription":["347260","33648"],"_bbp_author_ip":["23.192.127.11"]," _bbp_last_reply_id":["0"]," _bbp_likes_count":["0"],"_btv_view_count":["86"],"_bbp_topic_status":["unanswered"],"_bbp_topic_id":["364667"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27833"],"_bbp_engagement":["33648","347260"],"_bbp_voice_count":["2"],"_bbp_reply_count":["1"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["364771"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["364771"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2024-04-29 20:55:02"]},"test":"karen-bohorquezkit-edu"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/364667","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\/364667\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=364667"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
