Hi,

When an octree volume is generated (for example to model a wing flowfield) so that a good quality surface mesh is obtained (i.e. around a wing) is it better to smooth both the tetra and tri elements or just the tri elements? Knowing that once the surface mesh is of a good quality the octree volume mesh will be replaced with a Delauney mesh.

Thanks.
