Hi Armin, thank you - thats what i searched for ... Stefan Hi Stefan, IIRC there is a .vtu file containing polyhderal cells in the VTK DATA repository. Otherwise, I attached a .xmf and a .vtu file containing each containing identical data, i.e. 2 hexahedral and 2 polyhderal cell. Please

Hi Armin, sounds thats the thing i searched for! Will check it out today and see if it does the job. Is there a demo-xml file around with such polyhedral cells? Best regards and thank you, Stefan Hi Stefan, If I understand your problem correctly, then you are looking for polyhedral

Hi Stefan, If I understand your problem correctly, then you are looking for polyhedral cells (i.e. N face cells, where each face is a M edge polygon). Polyhedral cells are commonly used in Computational Fluid Dynamics codes, as e.g. OpenFOAM, and VTK/ParaView support them already for quite some t

Hi, i have a question how to create volume data with complex shaped elements. An example of the "problem" is using the sphere-source and cut the resulting sphere you will get only the shell (because polydata is surface-data!) but not the enclosed volume. On the other side using unstructured g
