Degenerate triangles in STL for use in sHM
Hello!
I've been working on an STL file (shown in this image): https://imgur.com/a/tWF24http://imgur.com/VcWKyV3https://i.imgur.com/PiVWHOZ.png My aim is to use this STL in snappyHeyMesh, however when running the surfaceCheck utility illegalFaces as well as problemFaces appear. In this image the bad triangles can be seen easily: https://imgur.com/a/CbhiPhttps://i.imgur.com/VcWKyV3.png Therefore, I am worried that the final mesh will turn out badly, or not turn out at all! I have previously used a no-thickness version of this STL and although problemFaces appeared the mesh turned out ok. To clarify, I did not make this STL in a CAD software, instead I exported it from a mathematical modelling software called MathMod. So my question is: can this be an issue? If so, what could I do to improve triangle quality while retaining the same shape? Thank you :) |
I don't want to be one of those guys who solves his problem and does not give any advice for people with the same issue, so here we go:
I found two main options to improve STL quality though third party software:
