Element Diameter 3D


This quality control criterion consists of calculation of length of the edges and diagonals combining the 3D meshing elements (tetrahedrons, pyramids, pentahendrons, hexahedrons and polyhedrons) of your mesh.

To apply the Element Diameter 3D quality criterion to your mesh:

  1. Display your mesh in the viewer.

  2. Choose Controls > Volume Controls > Element Diameter 3D or click "Element Diameter 3D" button in the toolbar.
