Meshes can be generated from existing CAD models or simple shapes specified within the input files.
Mesh Generation JSON Template
A mesh generation JSON file contains two sections: "Mesh File Options"
, where the names of the input geometry and output mesh are specified, and "Mesh Generation Options"
, where the meshing engine and its associated parameters are specified.
{ "Program Type": "Mesh Generation", "Mesh File Options": { "Input Geometry File": "geometry.stl" "Output Mesh File": "meshed_geometry.vtu" }, "Mesh Generation Options": { "Mesh Generation Engine": "netgen", "Netgen Parameters": { ... } } }
Meshing Engines
Promesh has several meshing engines available:
These tools can be used individually or in conjunction with one another.
