The meshing algorithm is as follows.
-#. Lines of a Cartesian structured grid defined by :ref:`cartesian_hyp_anchor` hypothesis are intersected with the geometry boundary, thus nodes lying on the boundary are found. This step also allows finding out for each node of the Cartesian grid if it is inside or outside the geometry.
+#. Lines of a Cartesian structured grid defined by :ref:`Body Fitting Parameters <cartesian_hyp_anchor>` hypothesis are intersected with the geometry boundary, thus nodes lying on the boundary are found. This step also allows finding out for each node of the Cartesian grid if it is inside or outside the geometry.
#. For each cell of the grid, check how many of its nodes are outside of the geometry boundary. Depending on a result of this check
-#. skip a cell, if all its nodes are outside
-#. skip a cell, if it is too small according to **Size Threshold** parameter
-#. add a hexahedron in the mesh, if all nodes are inside
-#. add a polyhedron or another cell type in the mesh, if some nodes are inside and some outside.

* **Definition mode** allows choosing how Cartesian structured grid is defined. Location of nodes along each grid axis is defined individually:
- * You can specify the **Coordinates** of grid nodes. **Insert** button inserts a node at **Step** distance (negative or positive) from the selected node. **Delete** button removes the selected node. Double click on a coordinate in the list enables its edition.
- .. note::
- that node coordinates are measured along directions of axes that can differ from the directions of the Global Coordinate System.
- * You can define the **Spacing** of a grid as an algebraic formula **f(t)** where *t* is a position along a grid axis normalized at [0.0,1.0]. **f(t)** must be non-negative at 0. <= *t* <= 1. The whole extent of geometry can be divided into ranges with their own spacing formulas to apply; a t varies between 0.0 and 1.0 within each **Range**. **Insert** button divides a selected range into two. **Delete** button adds the selected sub-range to the previous one. Double click on a range in the list enables edition of its right boundary. Double click on a function in the list enables its edition.
