NAME
netgen — Automatic 3d tetrahedral mesh generator
SYNOPSIS
netgen [OPTIONS...] [file.geo]
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the netgen and bar commands.
This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the
original program does not have a manual page.
netgen is an automatic mesh generation tool for two and three
dimensions. Netgen generates triangular or quadrilateral meshes in 2D,
and tetrahedral meshes in 3D.
The input for 2D is described by spline curves, and the input for 3D
problems is either defined by constructive solid geometries, or by the
standard STL file format. Netgen contains modules for mesh
optimization and hierarchical mesh refinement. Curved elements are
supported of arbitrary order.
