The option is available in the Type field after you select an entity such as a body, face, edge, or vertex.
If the Sphere of Influence is scoped to a body or vertex, the Sphere of Influence affects the entire body regardless of sizing options being used. If the Sphere of Influence is scoped to a face or edge and Use Adaptive Sizing is set to Yes, the Sphere of Influence only affects the face(s) or edge(s) that are scoped to the control and the transition away from those entities. If the Sphere of Influence is scoped to a face or edge and any other sizing option is used, the Sphere of Influence will affect the whole body (not just scoped face(s) or edge(s)).
Although the Behavior option is not available for , behaves as a Hard setting. That is, in the vicinity of a , the sizing overrides pre-existing sizing information regardless of whether the pre-existing sizes are larger or smaller than the sizing. This is in contrast to the option, which behaves as a Soft setting.
In this tutorial, you will learn to use the Sphere of Influence tool using Ansys Meshing. With this tool you can generate localized mesh.
Ansys Meshing – Keyframe Animation
You can make animations based on keyframes. Keyframes define the start and endpoints of each section of animation.
Ansys Meshing – Match Control
In this tutorial, you will learn how to use the Match Control tool in Ansys Meshing. Match Control allows duplicating the mesh in a body. We have two option Match Control Cyclic and Arbitrary.
