Hi Ruth,

Thanks - that fixes my volume problem.

My other problem remains, though. I want to define geometry using a msh file, and then create a mesh with new surface elements, not the ones I am using for geometry surfaces. Is there a way to do this?

Hi Wayne,

You need to define the geometrical Volume:
Volume(11) = {10};
the Physical Volume is used just for tagging the elements and their further use in a e.g. FE solver.

Regards,
Ruth

I'm trying to mesh a volume defined by surfaces that are defined by tessellations. I don't want the mesh to be based on the surface triangles - those are purely geometry and in most cases finer than the volume mesh that I want.

When I run gmsh like this:

gmsh try1.geo -3 -format msh -saveall -smooth 3 -o try1-out.gmsh

(files attached) I do not get any tetras in the output, and it appears that the output mesh is a refinement of the input mesh.

What am I doing wrong?  Thanks,

   Wayne
