Week 2 Bevel Gear Challenge
Grid Dependency: It is nothing but Mesh sizing. It help to solve problem to get solve accurately. Mesh quality is to refine a mesh until a critical result such as Equivalent stress does not change significantly with each refinement (i.e. it converges). This is the Grid dependency test, where, analysis begins with a coarse mesh and it tends fine mesh for each run until the results do not change significantly and depend on the grid size anymore.
