The Test sizing function is a hardwired numerical function used to demonstrate the transitional effect of sizing function-based and adaptive paving. The function is a periodic function which is repeated in 50x50 unit intervals on a 2D surface in the first quadrant (x > 0, y > 0, z = 0). This is an alpha feature and should be used with caution. An example of a surface meshed with this sizing function is shown in Figure 1.
