To improve mesh matching

Mesh matching is supported for the following mesh types:

• Dual Domain

1. Make visible the required layer(s) in the Layers pane, to display all nodes in the model.
2. Click (Mesh tab > Mesh Edit panel > Match Nodes). The Match Nodes tool enables you to pick a selection of nodes and adjust their position by associating them with corresponding elements on the opposite side of the part.
3. Click (Mesh tab > Selection panel > Select Facing Entities). This ensures that when you select nodes or elements on one side of the part, no nodes or elements on the opposite side are selected.
4. Select a region of nodes where there are one or more unmatched elements that are not on an edge. Unmatched elements are displayed in red on the Dual Domain Mesh Match Diagnostic plot. The selected nodes are listed in the Nodes to project into mesh: text box.
5. Rotate the part and select a group of triangles on the opposite side of the part to the selected nodes. The selected elements are listed in the Triangles for nodes to project to: text box.
6. Click Apply to perform the matching. The Dual Domain Mesh Match Diagnostic plot updates automatically.
7. Repeat the above steps for other areas of the part you would like to correct.

Tip: To improve mesh matching, use (Mesh tab > Mesh Edit panel > Advanced > Remesh Area) to select a group of unmatched elements and remesh them. It is important to select the elements on either side of the thickness when performing the remesh operation.
