Hello

I create a mesh for a half circle surface (pls see the attached picture) it is symmetric but I do not know why the mesh is not symmetric.

Could you please tell me the solution.

Thanks

    How do you know the mesh is not symmetrical? Show us?

    To get that symmetric too you can divide the semicircle again, mesh only one part and using the reflect tool (Tools>>reflect) mirror the elements.

     

    Thankyou

    Do as @Sanjay Nainani says.

    If you want symmetrical mesh of 1/2 circular area, you should work with 1/4, that's rather simple.
