GMSH: Volume of two intersecting cubes

Hello!
I built a big cube with a small cube laying half in it. I created all the surfaces of the both cubes and as volume for the big cube I selected: Surfaces of big cube and then surfaces of the small cube. I painted a picture to describe it better. The 3D meshing does not work, it says: "Self intersecting surface mesh" What I wanted to mesh is the big cube with a hole where the small cube cut in! Is this possible that way or do I have to create more points where the objects intersect? |

Hi,
You have to create the first volume, then create the second by using the faces of the first. GMSH doesn't permit any volume or faces intersections. Jérémy |
