Hi everyone,

Is there any tools in pointwise can define the ratio of the mesh spacing or something like that, now I only know to define the begin and end spacing of the connector, but the mesh distribution is not what I want.

Thank you so much
Sophie

Hi Sophie:

The geometric progression distribution function lets you specify the spacing at one end and the grid spacings grow at a constant rate to the other end (where you cannot specify the spacing constraint value).

Control over both the ratio of mesh size requires both the distribution function and adjustments to its dimension (number of grid points) for a connector of fixed length.

Hope this helps.
