GMSH_TO_FEM
Convert Mesh Data from GMSH to FEM Format. {#gmsh_to_fem-convert-mesh-data-from-gmsh-to-fem-format. align="center"}


GMSH_TO_FEM is a C++ program which reads a mesh data file created by the GMSH program and writes a pair of node and element files that correspond to the FEM format.

Usage: {#usage align="center"}

gmsh_to_fem prefix

where prefix is the common filename prefix so that:

  • prefix**.msh** contains the GMSH mesh data file.
  • prefix**_nodes.txt** will be the FEM node file created by the program.
  • prefix**_elements.txt** will be the FEM element file created by the program.

GMSH_TO_FEM is available in a C version and a C++ version and a FORTRAN77 version and a FORTRAN90 version and a MATLAB version.
