Triangular Meshes in deal.II

[pushkar...@gmail.com]

Dear deal.II community

I am trying to verify a formulation from one of the book in which the corresponding code has a triangular mesh as opposed to square mesh . In  this regard,I wish to know whether I can input a triangular mesh into deal.II. Also,I donot wish to use AMR as I just want to verify the formulation using sepicified mesh density.

Thanks in Advance

Dear Pushkar,

Deal.II supports simplex meshes, you can look at the documentation : https://www.dealii.org/current/doxygen/deal.II/group__simplex.html

Consequently, you can import a 2D triangular mesh made with GMSH, or you can transform a quad mesh generated by deal.II into a simplex mesh.
