Hi, I have not done FEM calculations for some time (a year or so). The last time I did them (using gmsh and Elmer), I had the problem that in geometries imported as STEP files (generated by Solidworks), adjacent bodies have their own external surface, resulting in double surfaces at the interfaces. When I use the mesh generated by gmsh in a FEM calculation (I use Elmer), I get no thermal and electrical connection because the body meshes are not connected at the interface. There have been attempts to clean up double surfaces in gmsh, but I don't know if they have come to a success. Could someone of the developpers update me on this point?
