Elmer mesh quality

[mark smith]

Hi Elmer team,
Is there an Elmer tool that can determine the mesh quality of an Elmer mesh? I do my meshing with various tools (GID,Trelis,Comsol,GiD) and then export them in a convenient format then convert to Elmer format using Elmergrid.
I am having convergence issues and NANs and wonder if it could be my mesh quality, some errors in the conversion routine or errors in writing out the intermediate format mesh?
Sometimes Elmer reports degenerate elements so there is some error checking going on but no quality metrics are reported?
Thanks in advance.
Mark

Hi Mark,

you can try to convert the mesh to a format which Salomé can read (e.g. unv), end examine the mesh there.

HTH,
