Hi all.

I'm trying to use gmsh to construct 3D mesh from initial 2D surface
mesh. With some initial surface meshes it works and with others gmsh
crashes or hangs. You can find example meshes and steps to reproduce
problems in Trac - https://geuz.org/trac/gmsh/ticket/88

Could anybody point me in right direction how to fix it?


I've looked at your files a bit more closely. They all work OK with the Delaunay. They cannot work with the Frontal algorithm because the surface mesh should be oriented with outward pointing normals in that case. Gmsh tries to orient the mesh correctly, but it does so "surface by surface". In your example the boundary of the volume is a single surface ("1") with non-coherent triangle orientations, so Gmsh cannot orient the triangles correctly.


Best regards,
