One can create spheres in Gmsh (somewhat indirectly), see http://www.geuz.org/gmsh/doc/texinfo/gmsh.html#t5_002egeo but I don't think Gmsh can carry out the union; see http://www.geuz.org/pipermail/gmsh/2011/006584.html. So I think this step should be done prior to Gmsh in something like FreeCAD. > 2) is gmesh able to mesh my set by hexahedrons. That sounds very tricky but is outside my experience so I won't comment. _______________________________________________ gmsh mailing list gmsh@geuz.org http://www.geuz.org/mailman/listinfo/gmsh
