MCReduceMesh |
This command reduces the
number of faces
in a mesh
while forming a good approximation of the original geometry. The extent of
reduction is determined by the feature angle. Larger the feature angle, more the
reduction and lesser is the number of faces in the reduced mesh.
To reduce a mesh
1. At the Select mesh
(FeatureAngle) prompt,
select the mesh to reduce.
Fig.A shows a mesh with 69451 faces.
Fig.B shows the same mesh
after reduction with Feature Angle=10. Reduced mesh from
69451 faces to 14881 faces.[78% reduction]
Note:
· A
high value for feature angle can distort the mesh and lead to
boundary
edges.
