hello how can I fill a closed hull of 2D-elements with 3D-elements, by calling GMSH from the shell?
I tried this: > gmsh MeshTria_2D.med -3 -o quark.med Info : Running '/opt/gmsh-2.13.1-Linux/bin/gmsh MeshTria_2D.med -3 -o quark.med' [Gmsh 2.13.1, 1 node, max. 1 thread] Info : Started on Mon Feb 20 09:20:03 2017 Info : Reading 'MeshTria_2D.med'... Info : Reading MED file V3.2.0 using MED library V3.2.0 Info : Reading 3-D unstructured mesh <<MeshTria_2D>> Info : Done reading 'MeshTria_2D.med' Info : Finalized high order topology of periodic connections Info : Meshing 1D...

Info : Done writing 'quark.med' Info : Stopped on Mon Feb 20 09:20:03 2017 but the resulting mesh does not contain any 3D-elements, it is identic to the input mesh. Moreover, I discovered that after loading the 2D-mesh (MeshTria_2D.med) into the GUI, the button "3D" in "Mesh" does not create any 3D-elements. I fear that a geometry is needed. Or is there a manner to create a volume mesh from a 2D-mesh? Many thanks for your help, Johannes_ACKVA _______________________________________________ gmsh mailing list [email protected] http://onelab.info/mailman/listinfo/gmsh
