The way in which the ‘MeshFunction’ class works is that it assigns a marker to every element of a particular dimension (vertex = 0, line = 1, etc.) and then use that marker to differentiate between different regions. Tag_info = xdmf_infile.read_information_int()įEniCS provide us with two classes ‘MeshFunction’ and ‘MeshValueCollection’ that help us to mark different mesh entities (vertex, line, facet, cell). 'poisson_subdomain_triangle.xdmf') as xdmf_infile: Once we have the XDMF files we can import them to FEniCS as follows: with XDMFFile(MPI.comm_world, Meshio.write('poisson_subdomain_line.xdmf', mesh_of_lines ) Import XDMF to FEniCS Mesh_of_lines = meshio.Mesh(points=points, Meshio.write('poisson_subdomain_triangle.xdmf', mesh_of_triangles ) mesh_of_triangles = meshio.Mesh(points=points, Thus for the current mesh, we need to export one mesh of 2D `triangle` elements and the other of 1D ‘line’ elements. Right now FEniCS does not support mixed topologies so you have to individually export mesh entities of different dimension to different XDMF files. Once you have the package installed you can use the following command to convert the mesh to xdmf.

The package could be easily installed by the following command: pip install meshio msh file created by gmsh could be converted to. To work with complex geometrical structures it is recommended that the user follows the following mesh workflow.

Even though these built-in meshes provide various methods for their construction and refinement, they are limited to simple shapes. We have many different prebuilt geometries in FEniCS that helps new users to get up and running with simple FEniCS classes and methods. We can solve many different forms of PDE on simple as well as complex domains in FEniCS. This PR extends the functionality of MeshValueCollection class with constructor that supports its creation from primitive arrays.PR #467 – Method to construct MeshValueCollection from arrays – open.The syntax is inline with XDMF standard and works well with PARAVIEW. The methods are designed to read and write tag data of XDMF file format. This PR extends the functionality of XDMFFile interface with methods read_information() and write_information().PR #439 – Add function to read Information tag data in XDMF – open.The idea is to store this mapping inside the element of XDMF.

This PR adds methods to preserve the mapping between the string tags and int tags when converting from.

PR #425-Add methods to read and write field_data to XDMF – merged on Aug 9.

The targets were achieved with the following pull requests. Add a constructor to the class MeshValueCollection to support its creation from primitive arrays.Preserve the string tags when converting from.Two approaches were finalized for the project. The intention was to make improvements to the process of preserving the information about tagged regions of the mesh when importing it to DOLFIN. The primary goal of the project was to ensure that the meshing package of choice gmsh, DOLFIN, and the preferred visualization package, Paraview work seamlessly together. (Although this improves meshing speed, the transfer back to FreeCAD is the bottleneck and we discussed this slightly in the issue above.)Ĭould you please check, whether one of my changes (these are lot of smaller ones) in the PR is still useful for you? The PR got stuck in the review and now is outdated, I'm afraid.This is my final post for the GSoC2019 program. Is this fixed in the meanwhile such that HXT could be the standard? This would also enable gmsh parallel meshing if called with '-t' option and when gmsh is compiled with Open MP. Nice work! I once submitted a PR where I selected the HXT algorithm as default, but reverted this due to the comment on the gmsh forum: the actual meshing procedure for a single volume is done is parallel.' (according to. '3D meshing using HXT is parallelized using a fine-grained approach, i.e. At least since version 4.6 is supports the 3D algorithm XHT.
