Minimal layer thickness is 0.55 mm???

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

In a 3D COMSOL geometry, I'm trying to create a solid sphere section with different layers of 0.50 mm each but I get a COMSOL error saying "Minimal layer thickness is 0.55 mm"!!!
(I'm trying to simulate composites layers here)

Obviously, there is something wrong...but what?

Thanks.

Hi

check your Geometry Node Default relative repair tolerance, the Layer thickness is not allowed to be smaller than the relative ratio given in this variable, you might make this value smaller

Good luck
