NOTES:

  • For documents with surface geometry only (no solids), only RefSurfShellElementMesh is supported.

  • BeamElementMesh is supported only for static, buckling, and frequency studies.

  • Drop test studies support solid mesh only.

  • Optimization and fatigue studies do not have their own mesh. They use the mesh of referenced studies. Mesh type is set to SolidElementMesh.
