Dear Professor Geuzaine,
I want to show my group at my working place, that the combination of gmsh and getdp is at least as powerful as an commercial FEA Software or
even more powerful. For that purpose I have imported a model of an Claw Pole Alternator as a step file into gmsh. That worked very well and it
is no problem to pick the faces and volumes with the gui. But because of the fact that I have imported the geometry I have no information about
the elementary entities in the geo file. So I can't change the characteristic lengths individually for the interesting lines/points.
Is it possible to get for example the volume or a surface with a command like 'get volume at point (x,y,z)' ? That would be awesome to automate
the picking of the areas and volumes for defining the physical entities.
Is there a function / command to get the surfaces that define a volume or the lines that define an area? The problem is that the geometry is
very complicated and I need to define the elements for every volume or area seperately to get a fine mesh in the airgap and a coarse mesh in the
outer air and so on.
Hi,
Here it is:
http://gmsh.info/doc/texinfo/gmsh.html#Transformations
Boundary { transform-list }
(Not a transformation per-se.) Returns the entities on the boundary of the elementary entities in transform-list, with signs indicating
their orientation in the boundary. To get unsigned tags (e.g. to reuse the output in other commands), apply the Abs function on the returned list.
Regards,
Dave

Is there a way to combine several fields for every volume to one field and set
it as the background field?
Sorry for so many questions and thanks for your time reading this.
Best regards
