|
\n The MESH module contains a set of meshing algorithms, which are
|
|
used for meshing entities (1D, 2D, 3D sub-shapes) composing
|
|
geometrical objects.
|
|
|
|
An algorithm represents either an implementation of a certain meshing
|
|
technique or a interface to a whole meshing program generating elements
|
|
of several dimensions.
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>For meshing of 1D entities (<b>edges</b>):</li>
|
|
\anchor a1d_algos_anchor
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><em>Wire Discretization</em> meshing algorithm - splits an edge into a
|
|
number of mesh segments following an 1D hypothesis.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li><em>Composite Side Discretization</em> algorithm - allows to apply an 1D
|
|
hypothesis to a whole side of a geometrical face even if it is
|
|
composed of several edges provided that they form C1 curve and form
|
|
one side in all faces of the main shape.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<li>For meshing of 2D entities (<b>faces</b>):</li>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><em>Triangle (Mefisto)</em> meshing algorithm - splits faces
|
|
into triangular elements.</li>
|
|
<li>\subpage quad_ijk_algo_page "Quadrangle (Mapping)" meshing
|
|
algorithm - splits faces into quadrangular elements.</li>
|
|
</ul>

|
|
|
|
<li>For meshing of 3D entities (<b>solid objects</b>):</li>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><em>Hexahedron (i,j,k)</em>meshing algorithm - 6-sided solids are
|
|
split into hexahedral (cuboid) elements.</li>
|
|
<li>\subpage cartesian_algo_page "Body Fitting" meshing
|
|
algorithm - solids are split into hexahedral elements forming
|
|
a Cartesian grid; polyhedra and other types of elements are generated
|
|
where the geometrical boundary intersects Cartesian cells.</li>
|
|
</ul>

|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
Some 3D meshing algorithms, such as Hexahedron(i,j,k) and some
|
|
commercial ones, also can generate 3D meshes from 2D meshes, working
|
|
without geometrical objects.
|
|
|
|
There is also a number of more specific algorithms:

<li>\subpage projection_algos_page "for meshing by projection of another mesh"</li>
|
|
<li>\subpage import_algos_page "for meshing by importing elements from another mesh"</li>
|
|
<li>\subpage radial_prism_algo_page "for meshing geometrical objects with cavities"</li>
|
|
<li>\subpage radial_quadrangle_1D2D_algo_page "for meshing special 2d faces (circles and part of circles)"</li>
|
|
<li>\subpage use_existing_page "Use Edges to be Created Manually" and
|
|
\ref use_existing_page "Use Faces to be Created Manually" algorithms can be
|
|
used to create a 1D or a 2D mesh in a python script.</li>

|
<li>\subpage segments_around_vertex_algo_page "for defining the local size of elements around a certain node"</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
\ref constructing_meshes_page "Constructing meshes" page describes in
|
|
detail how to apply meshing algorithms.
