Hi,
I've attached a test file which defines a 3D domain similar to the one
which you've described, which Gmsh is able to partition into a set of 8,
20 and 27-node hexahedral elements.
I don't know if Gmsh is able to generate 14-node hexahedral elements.
At least I've never bothered looking for it. Nevertheless, if Gmsh
doesn't handle that type of element maybe you can make do by generating
a 27-node mesh and then convert 27-node elements into 14-node ones.
Hope this helps,
Rui Maciel
