Projecting nodes on lines and surfaces

Hello,

While meshing, sometimes the nodes do not follow the geometry properly due to faceted surfaces. Even projecting the nodes on line and surf does not help.

 

Even though it has a negligible effect on analysis, do we have a remedy on this? Please see image below for reference.

 

Thanks and regards,

Bharat

    Thank you Rahul for the helpful reply.

     

    There is one more query though.

     

    As per the attached image, I want to split the selected quads by the purple line. Is it possible to split elements by that line?

     

    Regards,

    Bharat

    You can split surface with line.For splitting elements use 2d page split element option.This will split element from mid.
