Create a FEM Mesh
There are different possibilities to create a FEM Mesh in FreeCAD:
- The Gui tool
- The Gui tool by Python
- Python directly means make the FEM Mesh by Hand
- Import a FEM Mesh
Objects created in PartDesign and Part are supported, as well as simple copies of those bodies. There are two Meshers available to the user: Netgen and GMSH. Netgen is included in FreeCAD. Refer to FEM Install For FEM Mesh generation by GMSH user psicofil has provided a GMSHMesh Macro.
