Hi,
Thank you for the answer. Is there a way to make structured meshes
periodic? Since it's structured of course the nodes match, but I would
like the edges to match eachother too!
Best Regards,
Josefin

Hi,
I have a cuboid (x,y,z) domain for which i have created tetrahedral, structured
mesh. Now, I want to apply periodic boundary conditions in x, and y direction
and in order to do that I need the mesh to be identical for the x=0 and x=xmax
surfaces, as well as for the y=0 and y=ymax surfaces. It is not sufficient for
only the nodes to match but I also want the edges to match!
I have tried to use the "Periodic Surface" command without success. I have seen several
posts on using the "Periodic Surface" commands without finding a solution for my problem.
The Periodic meshing command only apply to unstructured grids. In your case the grid is
set structured (meshed by extrusion with the "Layers" option).
Could anyone help me?
My geofile looks like this:
cl=1.0;
//cuboid which is 8000,8000,1000 big
Point(1) = {0,0,0,cl};
Extrude {8000,0,0} {
Point{1}; Layers{10};
}
Extrude {0,8000,0} {
Line{1}; Layers{10};
}
Extrude {0,0,1000} {
Surface{5}; Layers{5};
}
boundMaster[] = Boundary{26};
boundSlave[] = Boundary{-8}; //tried plus and minus sign here..
boundMaster2[] = Boundary{22};
boundSlave2[] = Boundary{-14}; //tried plus and minus sign here..
Periodic Surface 18 {boundSlave[]} = 26 {boundMaster[]};
Periodic Surface 14 {boundSlave2[]} = 22 {boundMaster2[]};
Physical Surface(28) = {14}; //y=y0
Physical Surface(29) = {18}; //x=xmax
Physical Surface(30) = {22}; //y=ymax
Physical Surface(31) = {26}; //x=x0
Physical Surface(32) = {5}; //top
Physical Surface(33) = {27}; //bottom
Physical Volume(34) = {1};
Best,
Josefin
