Why Use T-Rex Hybrid Meshing?

T-Rex is an advanced and automated hybrid mesh generation method. T-Rex generates hybrid meshes that resolve boundary layers, wakes, and other phenomena in viscous flows by extruding layers of high-quality, high-aspect ratio tetrahedra that can be post-processed into stacks of prisms. The algorithm includes tools for optimizing cell quality and avoiding collisions of adjacent layers of cells. Read more.

5 Small Features for Easy Meshing in Fidelity Pointwise

The big, powerful features such as unstructured quadrilateral surface meshing, unstructured hexahedral layer extrusion in the anisotropic tetrahedral extrusion (T-Rex) technique, and tetrahedral mesh clustering sources often overshadow the small yet formidable features in Fidelity Pointwise. The top five small features for easy meshing in Fidelity Pointwise are described. Read more.
