You can build a grid around any type of object using Fidelity Pointwise; it is not limited to
any particular geometry. The grids you create in Fidelity Pointwise can be used
with any type of analysis software including computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and finite
element analysis (FEA). In fact, Fidelity Pointwise has built-in filters for
many analysis codes as well as popular neutral formats.
Note: Fidelity Pointwise makes unstructured, structured and hybrid grids and can export them in many different analysis software formats.
This User Manual describes in detail the use of each Fidelity Pointwise command. If you are a
new user and are interested in learning about how to run Fidelity Pointwise, we recommend that
you begin by reading and running the tutorials in the Tutorial Workbook (Help, Tutorial
Workbook). The User Manual is meant to be used as a reference and should be consulted to
get detailed information about the particular commands you are trying to use.
