Hi, I am a CFD developer and I am interested in using Gmsh and in particular the mesh file format ".msh".
I was reading the guide ( http://geuz.org/gmsh/doc/texinfo/gmsh.html#File-formats) where the file formats (ASCII and Binary) are described. I am interested in the polyhedra element type, I am not sure if msh can handle such a geometrical shape (like hexa with refinement, hanging nodes, etc for example) since all elements_types codes/tags appear to be listed and no polyhedra is reported. But then polyhedra is recalled later in the physical quantities sections talking about interpolation. So my question: can the .msh file handle meshes with polyhedra elements? If so, which elem_type should be used in the geometrical part (right after nodes coordinates). And also, is an example available? Thanks a lot in advance. Blues skies, Alessandro Palmas
