i am doing 2D meshing with " Mesh control " then continue 3D meshing " Tet " on a very simple model but getting " mesh failed" error when 3D meshing.
The model is a simple "cylinder".
Is my software at fault.
Please give me remedy. Thank you

    Hello,

    I have imported the database shared and I can able to generate Tet mesh. Not sure why it is failing in your machine.

    Could you please check the following and confirm?

    • Go to scratch folder (File > Preferences > Applications > General)

    • During volume mesh, the Tet mesh file (*.gda) will be created in the Temp folder. See if this file is created in your machine.

    Kindly share the Temp folder created in your machine.

    Thanks & Regards,

    Hello, I opened your database and could tet mesh the body easily without any problem.

    It is a quite unusual behavior, I could not say why this happens.

    Then, I think the installation is not done fully. Check whether the below 2 exe is available in your SimLab installation folder. This is used to generate Tet mesh.

    Also, it is better to uninstall and install SimLab again.
