Hi all!
Matthias, I think, Benedikt means not duplicated faces,
but faces with the same mesh, that should be created by
"Symmetry" command.
Benedikt, am I right?
I join to Benedikt's question, because periodic mesh is
very interesting for me.

Subject: Re: [Gmsh] periodic, aka. conforming boundary
meshes ?
Hi,
I try to answer although I am no gmsh developper. ;)
To my knowledge, the best there is at the moment is to use
the "cut and merge faces" feature imported from Salom?
which is available under Tools->Options->Geometry->General
in the gmsh GUI. Check it and open your geometry file
(e.g. a STEP file). If you are lucky, duplicated faces in
your geometry will be recognized and merged. It doesn't
work for all cases, so there is much room for improvement.
I am trying to write a postprocessor for such nonconformal
meshes, but it is a very tedious work and not mature yet.
I don't know if there is any work on this subject in the
gmsh team...

Betreff: [Gmsh] periodic, aka. conforming boundary meshes
?
Dear gmsh developers
I know I have asked about the state of periodic, aka.
conforming boundary meshes,
in 3D a while ago. Is there any news on this ?
I recently compiled gmsh from svn and tried to mesh a
simple cube-like structure that
requires conforming boundary meshes since it models a xy
periodic electromagnet problem.
However, the periodic surface mesh is wrong, showing
massive distortions, see below.
I would appreciate if you could comment on your
development schedule regarding
periodicity.
Thanks, Benedikt
