 * Max. size is the maximum size (in millimetres) of an element. The smaller the maximum element size, the more elements we get – usually the result will get more precise, but with a dramatic increase in computing time. We set it to 10.
 * Second order means, that in each element, additional nodes will be created. This increases computing time, but is usually a good choice if it comes to bending as in our analysis. We leave it checked.
 * Fineness: Select, how finely the model should be cut into elements. For more complex models with curvatures and intersections, we can increase the element number in those regions to get better results (at the cost of more computing time, of course). Expert users can also set it to User-defined and set the following parameters. For our simple rectangular model, the fineness selection has not much of an impact, we keep it at moderate level.
 * Optimize: Some kind of post-processing after meshing. We keep it checked.
