Re: [Gmsh] Converting 2d to 3d mesh

Dear Guillaume, Thank you for your quick answer! Well, I was able to generate a volumetric mesh from a .stl file. However, the resulting .msh is quite large (90MB). Since I would like to do some further FE analysis, I would like to reduce the size of the .msh file which means the size of the 3D m

[Gmsh] Issue with multiple fields ( attractor and thresholds)

Dear Gmsh users, I am trying to create 3D volume mesh from .STL files that I have. In addition, I am trying to refine my 3D mesh locally around known points. I am using 2 sets of attractor /threshold to carry out differential refinements.However, I am not able to carry out these two simultaneous

[Gmsh] use scalar point view as background mesh?

Hi, Is it possible to use scalar point view as background mesh? If I set SP(x,y,z){lc}, then the characteristic length near (x,y,z) is lc. If not, how could I achieve this using gmsh’s current capability? -- Yao ___ gmsh mailing list gmsh@onelab.info

Re: [Gmsh] split windows camera sync

Hi, Christophe! Great, I did'n know about any of these things (per window visibility and about this alt+click sync). In fact this alt+click functionality was not working for me on my ubuntu 16.04 because of common 'alt+click' ubuntu problem - this combination is used for window movement (perhaps, t

Re: [Gmsh] Issue with multiple fields ( attractor and thresholds)

Hi, The Background Field = ; command is used to declare that field should be used to set the local mesh size. Therefore, the result you get is perfectly normal : as you set field 4 to be used as background, all refinement information that should come from field 2 is simply never applied. To

Re: [Gmsh] use scalar point view as background mesh?

Dear Mr Jin, I never used it myself, but there is a PostView field that seem to do exactly what you want (see documentation here). Faithfully Yours, Guillaume DILASSER Doctorant SACM / LEAS CEA - Centre de Saclay - Bât.123 -
