Mesh Quality Assessment

Mesh quality can be assessed using appropriate quality metrics. Information on metrics applicable to various finite elements and other mesh quality assessment data is presented below:

• Metrics for Edge Elements
• Metrics for Triangular Elements
• Metrics for Quadrilateral Elements
• Metrics for Tetrahedral Elements
• Metrics for Hexahedral Elements
• Metrics for Wedge Elements
• Mesh Quality Command Syntax
• Mesh Quality Example Output
• Automatic Mesh Quality Assessment
• Controlling Mesh Quality 
• Coincident Node Check
• Mesh Topology Check
• Finding intersecting meshes.

Information about the quality metrics used for each element type can be obtained using the command:

quality describe {hex | hexahedral | tet | tetrahedral | face | quad | quadrilateral | tri | triangular}
