Subgrid in CST 2006
anyone know what happened to subgridding in CST suite 2006. I can't seem to find the option anymore.
Thanks.

No subgridding in CST 2006. Apparently, they had some probles with it, so they removed it from the new version.
Hi Pushhead,
Hummm.. this is interesting. Do you know what is the problem? There didn't seem to be much info about why they have removed the feature. The only mention of subgrid was a single word in the advance manual. Maybe I should attend their seminar more often to keep up :P I am wondering if the removal is because they want to encourage more usage of tetraheral mesh?
Cheers,

Dear friends,
Last year someone from CST told me that the issue of subgridding instability would be resolved in CST 2006. I did not expect that it meant they would take out the problematic feature instead of fixing it.

Not at all, according to some of the developers. The tet mesher is purely for the Frequency domain and new MoM solver.
The subgridding was actually stable, BUT was not at all optimised from a memory point of view, so in many cases there was no significant benefit from subgridding.
The new version for 2006 has been optimised for memory and speed and is apparently as good as the Octree subgridding in Microstripes (which is very good).
We'll see......
according to some of the developers. full subgridding will be at half or the end of 2006
they working on it. SP5 is the next to come
