Create your own Gmsh models !
Gmodel is a C++11 library that implements a minimal CAD kernel
based on the .geo format used by the Gmsh mesh generation
code, and is designed to make it easier for users to quickly construct
CAD models for Gmsh.
You just need CMake and a C++11 compiler.
git clone [email protected]:ibaned/gmodel.git
cd gmodel
cmake . -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/your/choice
make installThis should install Gmodel under the given prefix in a way you can access from your own CMake files using these CMake commands:
find_package(Gmodel 1.3.0)
target_link_libraries(myprogram gmodel)Several example executables can be found in the tests/ directory.
Gmodel provides at least the following:
- Polygon creation
- Extrusion of complex 2D faces into 3D objects
- Insertion of solids into other solids
- Built-in functions to make spheres, etc.
- Output model in Gmsh
.geoformat - Output model in PUMI
.dmgformat - Spline formation and extrusion
- "Welding" for simple cases
- Model affine transformation
Gmodel does not support the more powerful CAD operations such as boolean operations involving objects whose boundaries overlap; we do not currently have the resources to develop such features.
Please open a Github issue to ask a question, report a bug, request features, etc. If you'd like to contribute, please fork the repository and use a feature branch. Pull requests are welcome.
