Increase Discretization Density
The Increase Discretization Density option is another method of customizing the boundary discretization. It allows you to double the existing discretization density on all boundaries within a selected rectangular or polygonal region.
To use this option:
- Ensure the Groundwater workflow tab is selected.
- Select Mesh > Increase Density > Increase Discretization Density (window or polygon) from the menu.
- Click and drag a selection window around the desired boundaries or enter points defining a polygonal region.
- When you release the mouse button, all boundaries (or portions of boundaries) WITHIN the selected region, will automatically be re-discretized, so that the new discretization density is DOUBLE the original discretization density.
- If the mesh exists when you use the Increase Discretization Density option, the mesh will automatically be re-generated using the new (doubled) discretization on boundaries within the selected region.
Unlike the Custom Discretize option, the Increase Discretization Density
option can be used either BEFORE or AFTER the finite element mesh has
been generated. However, the boundaries must be discretized before the
Increase Discretization Density option is enabled.
