ptstorey is on a distinguished road
I've done some shape optimisation (with adjoint solver) and the orthogonal quality has dropped from higher than 0.9 down to 0.5, and I'm beginning to see signs that the solution is struggling to converge.

What is the best way to refine/ improve orthogonal quality of the mesh?
So far I have tried Mesh > Smooth/Swap which has made it better, but I don't really know what I'm doing.

Thanks!
