This section explains how you control the overall characteristics of your mesh.
Assigning mesh controls Choosing an element shape Selecting a meshing technique Redefining region corners Setting the mesh algorithm Specifying the sweep path Sweep meshing a solid, revolved region whose profile touches the axis of revolution Applying a mesh stack orientation Changing mesh controls for previously meshed regions Associating Abaqus elements with mesh regions Changing the labels of all nodes and elements Adding layers of wedge elements to tetrahedral mesh boundaries
