Augustus Mesh Description

Multi-Dimensional Mesh:

Dimension Geometries Type of Elements

1-D spherical, cylindrical or cartesian line segments

2-D cylindrical or cartesian quadrilaterals or triangles

3-D cartesian hexahedra or degenerate hexahedra (tetrahedra, prisms, pyramids)

all with an unstructured (arbitrarily connected) format.

This presentation will assume a 3-D mesh.
