    Hi,

    Is there any way to use a mesh from an open source tool instead of ansys?

    thanks.

      Do you have such an open source tool for meshing?
      It is possible to either recreate the ansys format we use for input, or write a new filehandler for the format of the other tool, if the format is documented (this should be no problem with open source tools)
      In fact, there is already a filehandler for a 2D mesher called 'triangle', which IIRC is open-source.
