This is important if the boundaries are periodic.  The Match Control matches the mesh on two faces or two edges in a model. The Meshing application provides two types of match controls\u00e2\u20ac\u201dcyclic and arbitrary.  The Match Control is supported for the following mesh methods:  Volume Meshing:  1. Sweep 2. Patch Conforming 3. MultiZone  Surface Meshing: 1. Quad Dominant 2.
