When selecting the geometry-optimized layer arrangement, the following input window appears:

 

 

The following figure displays a 3D model with several partial layers to show the complexity of geological conditions.

The generation of poor elements is avoided in SPRING5. In the geometry-optimized layer division, the top layer edge is obtained during the vertical refinement, but not the geological layer assignment. The layer-specific attributes should be saved beforehand with this division variant.
