Creating Tetramesh for a volume from fixed tria meshe on surface

Altair Forum User

Hi everyone, I'm working on a volume and want to mesh it with tetrahedral meshes, I have meshed surfaces of this volume, How can I create tetrameshes for the whole volume?

P.S. meshes on surfaces are fixed and should not be changed.

Thanks a lot
