Hexahedron Dominant Meshing with Hexahedron and Tetrahedron Elements only
In most cases the Hexahedron Dominant Meshing will include Hexahedron, Pentahedron, Pyramid and Tetrahedron elements.
I want to generate the Hexahedron Dominant Meshing with Hexahedron Dominant and Tetrahedron only. or convert the Hexahedron Dominant Meshing into a new mesh with Hexahedron Dominant and Tetrahedron only.
I found an old thread [Gmsh] Regular mesh only composed by tetrahedra, it mentioned that:
- Export a GMSH mesh composed of hexaedra in VTK.
- Open it in ParaView and apply the filter Tetrahedralize to create a tetrahedral mesh.
- Click on Save Data to save it as VTU.
Is it possible to export the non-Hex elements only and use ParaView to convert them to tet elements? Or is there other way to do this?
