Martin,

Not sure if you have seen the previous posts recently, but I have a very similar problem to yours. The mesh you would like to generate is an "anisotropic unstructured grid". I haven't yet found a solid way for it in gmsh. Hopefully someone will comment on this.

Hi Ruth,

thanks for that, this works fine as I expected. However it would be better if the values I declare for the step sizes in x and z direction could be more like "guidelines" for gmsh, so that the resulting mesh is not a regular, structured one as the mesh that is created by your script. I don't know if it's possible for example to shift each of the calculated internal nodes, by adding or subtracting some random number to/from the coordinates (the random number in each direction could for example be 10% of the suggested "guideline" step size)?

Regards,
Martin


Zitat von "Ruth V. Sabariego" <[email protected]>:

Try this:
a = 100 ;
lc1 = 10 ;
lc2 = 1 ;

Point(1) = {0,0,0,lc1};
Point(2) = {a,0,0,lc1};

Line(1) = {1,2};

Extrude {0, a, 0} {
  Line{1}; Layers{a/lc2};
}

Regards,
Ruth

Hi,

I'm pretty new to gmsh, and so far I haven't succeeded in creating a mesh with different element sizes in different spatial directions (for instance a 100m*100m square with average element sizes of 10m in x direction and 1m in y direction). Is this possible, and if so, can you show me how to do that (either script or GUI)?

Thanks in advance for your thoughts,
Martin
