Installation

pip install scikit-gmsh

Usage

import pyvista as pv
import skgmsh as sg

We can define the surface using PyVista.

source = pv.Polygon(n_sides=4, radius=8, fill=False)

We can then generate a 2D mesh.

mesh = sg.frontal_delaunay_2d(edge_source=source, target_sizes=2.0)

To visualize the model, we can use PyVista.

plotter = pv.Plotter()
_ = plotter.add_mesh(
    mesh,
    show_edges=True,
    line_width=1,
    color="aliceblue",
    lighting=False,
    edge_color="gray",
)
_ = plotter.add_mesh(source, show_edges=True, line_width=4, color="gray")
plotter.show(cpos="xy")

We can also generate a 3D mesh.

source = pv.Cube()
mesh = sg.delaunay_3d(edge_source=source, target_sizes=0.2)

plotter = pv.Plotter()
_ = plotter.add_mesh(
    mesh,
    show_edges=True,
    line_width=1,
    color="aliceblue",
    lighting=False,
    edge_color="gray",
)
_ = plotter.add_mesh(edge_source.extract_all_edges(), line_width=4, color="gray")
_ = plotter.add_box_axes()
plotter.show()

We can clip a mesh by a plane by specifying the origin and normal. See clip_with_surface_example for more examples using this filter.

clipped = mesh.clip(origin=(0.0, 0.0, 0.0), normal=(0.0, 0.0, 1.0), crinkle=True)
