To improve fitting of numerical results to experimental data, in the past, distances between nodes were decreased for whole mesh. A typical mesh generator for Finite Element Method (FEM) analysis ensures possibility to decrease distances between nodes for edges or surfaces of described geometries. Influence of local mesh refinement for a flat and round tensile specimen on fitting of numerical tensile simulation results to experimental data was presented in the paper. Local mesh refinement was performed for areas with the error values higher than threshold value. First iteration of flat and round mesh refinement has to improved correlation of numerical and experimental data with acceptable increase of mesh file size. Similar observations have been made for the second iteration of the flat specimen mesh. On the basis of analysis, shown that second iteration of round mesh refinement caused crucial increase of mesh file size and computation time with negligible fitting improvement.
