Peer

review
...
suggested
...
that
...
we
...
mesh
...
our
...
model
...
manually.
...
What
...
should
...
we
...
do?
...
Answer:
...
Automatic
...
and
...
manual
...
...
will
...
produce
...
comparable
...
results.
...
Manual
...
meshing
...
is
...
much
...
more
...
time
...
consuming.
...
Further,
...
the
...
sophisticated
...
automatic-meshing
...
procedures
...
of
...
...
Software
...
may
...
even
...
produce
...
a
...
more
...
efficient
...
and
...
reliable
...
mesh.
...
Controls
...
are
...
available
...
to
...
manually
...
refine
...
an
...
automatic
...
mesh.
...
Mesh
...
refinement
...
may
...
improve
...
the
...
modeling
...
and
...
analysis
...
of
...
regions
...
with
...
stress
...
concentrations,
...
extreme
...
force
...
gradients,
...
member
...
connections,
...
etc.
...
Perhaps
...
you
...
could
...
create
...
two
...
simple
...
models,
...
mesh
...
one
...
automatically
...
and
...
one
...
manually,
...
then
...
demonstrate
...
to
...
the
...
reviewers
...
that
...
the
...
two
...
methods
...
produce
...
comparable
...
results.
...
This
...
should
...
indicate
...
that
...
it
...
is
...
not
...
necessary
...
to
...
mesh
...
the
...
entire
...
design
...
manually.
