A method of predicting thermal response, mechanical response, and/or failure points in additive manufacturing, including generating a first layer of a finite element mesh of an object based on a three-dimensional model of the object; generating one or more additional layers of the finite element mesh of the object; homogenizing one or more lower layers of the finite element mesh when the one or more lower layers are located at a distance greater than a distance threshold from a most recently added layer of the finite element mesh; simulating an additive manufacturing build of the object based on the finite element mesh including the homogenized one or more lower layers, wherein a length of a homogenized element in the homogenized one or more lower layers is greater than a maximum element length in the finite element mesh prior to homogenization, and the distance threshold is a positive real number.
