CORNER BIAS MESH

The CORNER BIAS MESH control allows the user to enter an element bias factor (0.625 to 1.6) relative to the selected corner of the line data that is to be modeled. This function multiplies the size of each adjacent element that is created from the selected corner by the bias factor.

If the CORNER BIAS MESH function as shown in Figure 10.1.1 is toggled on, the user can define the bias factor by dragging the slider. An example of mesh with edge bias mesh control is shown in Figure 10.1.2c.

Note: A bias factor greater than 1.0 generates proportionately larger elements from the selected edge. A bias factor less than 1.0 generates proportionately smaller elements from the selected edge. This function can only be implemented with the 2L, 3L, 4L, 6S, 10S, 9S, and 12S meshing function.
