      Under Mesh object there is an “Inflation” tool which are mostly used for CFD cases to improve mesh quality at high stress regions. It can also be applied in Mechanical to improve mesh. For example to improve contact result, “inflation” can be used to mesh the contact surface with hexahedral elements through a specified number of layers and transition to tetrahedral elements.
