Advanced Anisotropic Adaptive Meshing

Anisotropic Mesh Elements are stretched along specific directions to better align with fields of interest, such as fluid flow, object surfaces, and temperature distributions.

Adaptive Mesh The mesh continuously adapts to evolving fields of interest throughout the simulation, ensuring optimal resolution where it is needed most.

Iterative Procedure This iterative approach ensures the mesh is fine-tuned to capture the smallest and most critical details of the objects being simulated.
