\n Revolution is a type of surface meshing by generation from
discretized lines. It is used to build mesh elements of plus one
dimension than the swept ones. Each swept 1D element produces one or
more quadrangles (or triangles if one node of a rotated element lays
on the revolution axis).

<em>To apply revolution:</em>

<li>From the \b Modification menu choose the \b Revolution item or click
<em>"Revolution"</em> button in the toolbar.
