CurvilinearDegreeΒΆ

Type:int
Range:[1, 10]
Default:1
Appearance:simple

Determines the polynomial degree of the displacement field added to the linear mesh to approximate curved geometries. This allows for a more accurate resolution of curved geometries without increasing the memory requirements. With higher CurvilinearDegree the approximation of for example circular segments becomes increasingly smooth at the expense of possibly longer meshing and assembly times.
