I'm new to Gmsh and I'm trying to learn the basics from the GUI
interface. I'm trying to play with building a 2-D mesh on a simple box
and then inspect the output as I change mesh parameters. I'm trying to
manipulate the average size of each triangle in the mesh, but the output
is not changing. Here's some of the things I've tried.
-Open 2.5 GUI
-Add 4 points at [0,0], [100,0], [100,100], and [0, 100]
-Draw lines between the points to create a square
-Create planar surface from lines.
-Create 2D mesh by going to Mesh->2D
-a basic mesh is created, average triange area appears to be about 1
square units of a 10,000 square unit box
Here's the problem. Now I want to control the size and dicate every
triangles area should be about 100 square units.
-Set mesh 'element size factor' to 100 by going to
Tools->Options->Mesh->Change element size factor to 100, then on the
main Gmsh GUI go to Mesh->2D to rebuild
After this the mesh does not seem to resize to have bigger triangles
Thanks for any help you can provide.
