At the moment I have the domain in sweepable bodies and it meshes fine by sweeping but my element quality is quite poor. I am wondering if there is better ways to mesh or if there is anything I am missing for this element quality to improve.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Thanks<\/p>\n<p>btw -In the pictures the mesh is showing as failed because I have tried something different but stopped it to comr back and take pictures.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/08\/13-08-2024-1723535269-Screenshot 2024-08-13 174508.png\" alt=\"\"><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/08\/13-08-2024-1723535254-Screenshot 2024-08-13 174548.png\" alt=\"\"> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/08\/13-08-2024-1723535226-Screenshot 2024-08-13 174631.png\" alt=\"\"><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-378070","topic","type-topic","status-publish","hentry"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_subscription":["438768","199"],"_bbp_author_ip":["134.148.93.87"]," _bbp_last_reply_id":["0"]," _bbp_likes_count":["0"],"_btv_view_count":["145"],"_bbp_topic_status":["unanswered"],"_bbp_topic_id":["378070"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27792"],"_bbp_engagement":["199","438768"],"_bbp_voice_count":["2"],"_bbp_reply_count":["9"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["380601"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["380601"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2024-08-27 09:29:29"]},"test":"joel-sayersuon-edu-au"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/378070","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\/378070\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=378070"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
