25 ©2023 ANSYS, Inc. Patch Conforming Tetrahedrons : Improved for Explicit Physics • Improvements to Patch Conforming Tetrahedrons under Explicit Physics Preference* - Improved Min Characteristic Length due to improvements to small triangle removal • Outcome is much smaller % of low CL triangles in complex models - Map Meshing improvements • Improvements to robustness and defeaturing for large models with hundreds of fillets marked for map mesh - If user inserts PC Tet Method with Beta enabled new aggressive improvement algorithms become available (see beta feature section for more details) Max. Aspect Ratio Min. Char. Length Features *Explicit Physics Preference enables (a) Targeting for specific qualities with surface mesh clean-up and (b) Size defaults to target uniform mesh. Elements produced are still compatible with implicit solver. It can be used for e.g. implicit calculations but user would need to manually set appropriate size controls and likely relax the targeting criteria to avoid defeaturing heavily. Reduce Increase Retain
