Creating a quad mesh from a surface #511

Closed pempmu closed 2 years ago

pempmu commented 2 years ago

Hi, I'd like to ask a general question regardin pyvista's functionality. I am interested to know if pyvista can handle mesh generation given a geometry. In my case I would like to create a surface mesh made of Quad elements given a specific contour in a 2D plane:

2D surface given a contour made of lines: 11111 (1)

2D meshed surface: 22222 (1)

Thank you!

Pyvista isn't a great meshing tool, but gmsh is. I'd go with that for mesh generation.
