Edge Biasing control allows you to control the mesh distribution along the scoped edges during the MultiZone meshing.
Edge Biasing Details view has the following options:
General
Control Type: Allows you to define the input to the selected control.
Scope
Define by: Allows you to define the input to the selected control. The available options are:
Value: Allows you to set manually the value of the Scoping Method and Scoping Pattern.
Outcome: Allows you to select the existing scoped outcomes from the previous steps as input.
Scoping Method: Allows you to select the entities for the selected control. The available options are:
Part: Allows you to select Parts for defining the scope of the control.
Label: Allows you to select Labels for defining the scope of the control.
Zone: Allows you to select Zones for defining the scope of the control.
Scoping Pattern: Allows you to specify the name pattern to get the selected Scoping Method. Scoping Pattern supports Regular Expression.
Definition
Define by: Allows you to define the element size based on value or settings. The available options are:
Value: Defines the element size based on the provided value.
Settings: Defines the element size based on the settings under Mesh Settings in the Steps Details view.
Note: Define by is available only when the Type is Element Size.
Type: Allows you to define the mesh distribution along the edges. The default value for Type is Number of Divisions. The available options are:
Element Size: Provides the element size for scoped edges. When Define by is Value, you can specify the element size for surface meshing. When Define by is Settings, displays the element size calculated based on the provided Mesh Settings in the Steps Details view. The Element Size is read-only. You can click
on the right corner of the option
and click Publish to publish Element
Size to the Property Worksheet. You
can parameterize Element Size only when
Define by is Value.Number of Divisions: Allows you to define the mesh size based on the specified number of divisions along an edge. You can click
on the
right corner of the option and click Publish to
publish Number of Divisions to the
Property Worksheet. You can parametrize
Number of Divisions.
Bias Type: Allows you to adjust the spacing ratio of nodes on an edge to cluster elements towards one end or both ends of the edge. The default value is No Bias.
No Bias: Allows you to uniformly distribute the nodes along the edge.
Blend to Neighbors: Allows you to refine the neighbouring edges based on the applied edge sizing control on the selected edge when Blend to Neighbors is Yes. The default value is Yes. When Blend to Neighbors is No, the mesher does not refine the neighbouring edges of the edge with the applied edge sizing control.
