Adaptive remeshing techniques
Adaptive remeshing techniques
(OP)
Hello all,
I am trying to learn more about remeshing techniques in FEA. I am using ABAQUS, and the programme does not seem to allow adaptive remeshing (i.e. mesh refinement) for 3D models using hex elements.
Is this the same case for all FE software? If so, anyone know why this is? Is it a limitation of the algorithms?
Thanks, I look foward to any comments.

If you're having trouble with solution times, you might relax your convergence criteria. You can always create a submodel of the area of interest if you don't have the horsepower for an adaptive mesh solution.

Yes I mean cubes. thanks for your advice I will try 2nd order tets and look at the accuracy of results.
Thanks.
