Hi Paul,
I have not found a way to easily define a surface from an analytical
equation.
One thing you can do though, for axisymmetric objects, is to describe a
curve from a list of points using a spline and then extrude this curve by
rotation. In this way, the surface created by the extrusion wil
Dear All,
I would like to generate a parabaloid surface, for example a parabolic
reflector surface that is defined by an equation. Is this possible? First I
would use Gmsh on its own to generate the surface mesh that I plan to use in a
physical optics PO and GTD simulation. In a CAD program I
