Methods

Name	Description
define_outward_normals	Calculates (approximate) outward normal vectors to nodes on the boundaries.
extract_nodes_and_boundary_type	Extract nodes and boundary types from a .msh file according to Gmsh format 4.0.8
get_meshfile	Gets the definitive mesh file to work with

define_outward_normals

cloud.GmshCloud.define_outward_normals()

Calculates (approximate) outward normal vectors to nodes on the boundaries. Raises: AssertionError: When the mesh is not fine enough to compute normals

extract_nodes_and_boundary_type

cloud.GmshCloud.extract_nodes_and_boundary_type()

Extract nodes and boundary types from a .msh file according to Gmsh format 4.0.8

get_meshfile

cloud.GmshCloud.get_meshfile(filename, mesh_save_location)

Gets the definitive mesh file to work with

Args: filename (str): see init() mesh_save_location (str): see init(). If None, the mesh is saved in the same directory as the filename
