Point Spacing

Tool description

The Point Spacing tool calculate the average length of the edges connected to a point in a mesh/UGrid or scatter set.

This operation is the inverse of the process of scalar paving in Mesh Generation and the result could be thought of as a size function (often referred to as nodal spacing functions).

The size function could then be smoothed to generate a size function for a mesh with improved mesh quality.

Input parameters

• Target grid – This is a required input parameter. Specify which grid/mesh the point spacing dataset will be created for.

Output parameters

• Output dataset – Enter the name for the point spacing dataset.
