What is the Quality Factor in FEModeler mesh metrics? Are the Quality Factor in FEModeler and the Workbench Shape Metric in Simulation the same?


The quality factor is computed for each element of a model (excluding line and point elements). This metric is based on the ratio of the volume to the edge length for a given element. A value of 1 indicates a perfect cube or square while a value of 0 indicates that the element has a zero or negative volume. This mesh metric is not used by Simulation in the meshing process.
