    Plz see Hypermesh help

    This is the ratio of the longest edge of an element to either its shortest edge or

    the shortest distance from a corner node to the opposing edge ('minimal

    normalized height'). HyperMesh uses the same method used for length (min)

    described below.

    For 3-D elements, each face of the element is treated as a 2-D element and its

    aspect ratio determined. The largest aspect ratio among these faces is returned

    as the 3-D element’s aspect ratio.

    Aspect ratios should rarely exceed 5:1
