Input

The input is given as a triangle surface (STL or NASTRAN, one file per part) and a RESOLUTION parameter. Non watertight surfaces will be repaired automatically. Details of this surface, which are smaller than the value of RESOLUTION, may not be meshed correctly.

Run LFE MMT

You can run LFE-MMT simply by

   LFE-MMT-executable    INPUT.mmt


Tetra Output

The output is a conformal tetrahedral mesh, formatted like a NASTRAN file. Each part and the fluid (= complementary space ) is given as a separate set of elements.


Polyhedral output

Conformal mesh of octahedron, hexahedron (= brick), prism, pyramid, tetra - elements.
Each element is bounded by triangles and plane quads.
Mixed output is possible: Some parts poly - some parts tetra.


Output at a second glance

An adaptive hierarchy of meshes approximates the input CAD data.
