Edge Cut + Rotational Layer Mesh Generation

These settings are a combination of Edge Cut Layer Mesh and Rotational Layer Mesh settings, and as such has the properties of both. One layer of edge cut mesh will be generated first, then extra multiple layers will be added by the rotational layer mesh settings.

To apply Edge Cut + Rotational Layer Mesh:

1. Select the desired bodies near the band.

2. Right-click to open the context menu, and select Assign Mesh Operation > Inside Selection > Edge Cut.

3. In the Edge Cut Based Refinement dialog box, you can rename the mesh operation, and specify the layer thickness. The recommended layer thickness is the band gap distance.
4. Reselect the same bodies.
5. Right-click to open the context menu, and select Assign Mesh Operation > Inside Selection > Rotational Layer Mesh.
6. In the Rotational Layer Based Refinement dialog box, you can rename the mesh operation, specify the number of layers (maximum of 3), and the total thickness of all the layers combined.

7. Click OK.
