Create a mesh workflow. A mesh workflow defines a meshing framework that makes advanced meshing capabilities available. The supported workflows are ideal for complex CAD geometry and meshing procedures. A workflow defines a meshing procedure as a sequence of Steps that can be parameterized and interconnected through the use of controls and Output. The application supports the following predefined and customizable acoustic workflows:
