GUI Basic Tutorial Step 8

Step 8: Volume Meshing

The volume mesh can now be generated. Again, the first step is to specify the type of meshing scheme that should be used and the second step is to issue the order to mesh. In certain cases, the scheme can be determined by CUBIT automatically. For sweepable volumes, the automatic scheme detection algorithm also identifies the source and target surfaces of the sweep automatically.

To instruct the code to automatically determine the meshing scheme, and in this case the source and target surfaces, do the following:

The final meshed body will appear in the Graphics Window, as shown below:
