Module splashsurf_lib::mesh

Basic mesh types used by the library and implementation of VTK export

This modules provides four basic types of meshes embedded in three dimensional spaces used by the library:

• TriMesh3d: triangle surface mesh in 3D space
• MixedTriQuadMesh3d: surface mesh in 3D space with triangle and/or quadrilateral cells
• PointCloud3d: points without connectivity in 3D space
• HexMesh3d: mesh with volumetric hexahedral cells

Furthermore, it provides the MeshWithData type that can be used to attach additional attributes to vertices (e.g. normals) or cells (e.g. areas/aspect ratios) of the mesh.

If the vtk_extras feature is enabled, this module also provides traits to convert these meshes to vtkio data types for serialization to VTK files. For example:

• IntoVtkUnstructuredGridPiece to convert basic meshes and meshes with attached attributes to the
• IntoVtkDataSet for all meshes implementing IntoVtkUnstructuredGridPiece to directly save a mesh as a VTK file
