Hi,

I used the h-adaptive mesh to refine the a model consisting of assemblies with the weld being major field of investigation. Normal mesh refinement wasn't working well due to the spacing between the parts to emulate a practical and real life scenario in the model.

I have highlighted a few areas in the mesh which I think isn't correct. As I understand every node should be connected to the neighboring ones to provide close to accurate results. In this case the mesh lines aren't continuous.

I'm not a meshing expert and would highly appreciate if any one can help me understand this.

Thanks a lot for taking out time to answer this.
