Hi Martin, thanks for the pointers. I will try them out and may come back with more questions in 10 days or so (on vacation next week… ;) )

In case you have svn sources of gmsh, you can find an example using MathEvalAniso in GMSH_SOURCE_ROOT/benchmarks/3d/CubeAniso.geo The source code of this field is in Mesh/Field.[h/cpp] Some more examples concerning background fields and their usage are also available in gmsh reference manual.

Do you have a short example, or is this described somewhere? I did not find it in the Reference manual.

For 3d anisotropic mesh, you do the same with '-3 -algo mmg3d'. You need to supply a mesh size field which will tell the anisotropic algorithm in which direction to refine the mesh.

It was said that an anisotropic mesh can be achieved using the bamg algorithm. I have some questions: 1. My 3D geometry consists of several layers stacked in z direction. Some of these layers are rather thin. I would like to have a mesh which is finer in z direction than in x and y direction. Can this be achieved using the bamg algorithm? If so, how? 2. How can I access this algorithm from the GUI? I did not find it in Options – Mesh. 3. If not accessible from the GUI, how else can I use it? 4. Is there any documentation available concerning this topic? I did not find anything in the gmsh manual (which is from October 2010 btw).
