Hi Adrien

I have heard of FreeCAD http://sourceforge.net/projects/free-cad/, but I didn't 
test it.
I don't know anything about cylindrical coordinates in gmsh.

intersections (this could take a while)

Is there a good CAD software free on linux ?

And if I re-design the structure on GMSH, can I use cylindrical coordinates ? 
And how ?
Thank you very much for yours answers,

Adrien

Hi Adrien,

the problem might be that you have several bodies whose outer faces overlap.
If you have only planar faces in your model, you can try to activate "Cut and 
merge faces" under Tools->Options->Geometry->General. This might clean those 
overlaps.
If not - well, I am actually working on a solution for curved faces, but it is 
not mature yet.
If you have the possibility to remove those duplicate outer faces in your CAD, 
this is certainly the best solution.

HTH,

Matthias

Betreff: [Gmsh] Error : Self intersecting surface mesh, computing intersections 
(this could take a while)

Hi everybody,


I passed yesterday afternon, trying to fixe it but I found nothing.

For my master thesis I have to compute centrifugale force on a 
micro-compressor. I have not design it myself but I can redesign it, if its 
needed (but I prefer not).
When I 3D mesh it, I have an error message :

Error : Self intersecting surface mesh, computing intersections (this could 
take a while)

But, only the 2D mesh is available.

What can I do ?


Adrien

PS : Sorry for my poor english.
