The `quality' of a mesh can be assessed using several element quality metrics available in Coreform Cubit. Information about the Coreform Cubit quality metrics can be obtained from the command

Quality Describe {Hex | Hexahedral | Tet | Tetrahedral | Face | Quad | Quadrilateral | Tri | Triangular}

which gives data on the quality metrics for each of the above element types. The following pages discuss the mesh quality assessment capabilities in Coreform Cubit.
