Gmsh
is a
finite-element
mesh generator
developed by Christophe Geuzaine and Jean-Francois Remacle. Released under the
GNU General Public License
, Gmsh is
free software
.
Gmsh contains 4 modules: for geometry description, meshing, solving and post-processing. Gmsh supports
parametric input
and has advanced visualization mechanisms. Since version 3.0, Gmsh supports full
constructive solid geometry
features, based on
Open Cascade Technology
.

A modified version of Gmsh is integrated with SwiftComp, a general-purpose multiscale modeling software. The modified version, called
Gmsh4SC
, is compiled and deployed on the Composites Design and Manufacturing HUB (
cdmHUB
).
Interfaces
[

]
Various graphical user interfaces exist that integrate Gmsh into their workflow:
- A Matlab interface available with
FEATool Multiphysics
.
- The Mesh Design and FEM Workbenches of
FreeCAD
support Gmsh for meshing inside the program, along with other meshers like
Netgen
.
