Hello, everyone!

I'm using ICEM for some time. But I have a problem:
In Hexa meshing, is it possible to specify the bunching law (spacing 1, ratio1, spacing 2, ratio 2) and let ICEM to compute the number of nodes required on an edge?

I'm using scripting to automatically generate hexa mesh for different geometry, and the edge length will change according to different geometry. Therefore, if I specify the constant number of nodes in the script file, it will produce very dense mesh for the short edges and sparse mesh for the long ones. This should be avoided in my case.

Can anyone give some help for me? Any solutions, whether direct or indirect, as long as they shed some light on this problem, will be highly appreciated

Thank you very much!

Regards to all
