Point Clouds for Mesh Refinement

PCD format files can include target spacing for each point

You can create point-clouds within Pointwise, as explained in this video, but you can also import point-clouds. Why would you want to do that? Watch this video to learn how imported point-cloud data can be used as sources to refine / coarsen the grid as you wish – note that this works for volume and for surface grids! In a subsequent step, we’ll see how Tecplot can be used to create this PCD for your solution.
