<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Below are some general notions about blocks:</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><font size=3 style="font-size:12pt;"><b style="font-weight: bold;"><img src="i_blue.jpg" x-maintain-ratio="TRUE" x-save-file="TRUE" x-save-method="compute-relative" width="30px" height="30px" border="0" class="img_whs2"></b></font></span>A block is a an elementary geometric solid that
has specific geometric constraints oriented for meshing. In the hexahedral
case, blocks have 6 faces and each face has 4 edges. &nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Tetrahedral Block - is a block with constraints for tetrahedral meshing.
</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Hexahedral Block - is a block with constraints for hexahedral meshing.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Block Compound - is a compound composed of blocks only.</p>
