Check mesh overlapping

giack · February 25, 2015, 20:00

Dear all,
I'm trying to implement a post processing utilities to check if in my mesh is present overlapping of some cells. I saw that the cellVolumeWeightMethod library find the indices of overlapping cells. How could I link it to a postprocessing utilities?

Moreover, there is also a test for the overlapping of tetrahedral cell (Test-tetTetOverlap). How could I modify it to read my mesh and check it?

Someone has any advice?

Thanks to everyone
Giacomo

If someone is interested is possible to check the overlapping with:

checkMesh -allGeometry

and look for this error

Error in face tets: faces with low quality or negative volume decomposition tets

Regards

Giacomo
