[Gmsh] biased meshing

[Finan, John]

Hi,

I am trying to generate a simple 2D mesh of a slice of a circle. I would like to bias the mesh towards the middle of the part because there will be high strain gradients at that point due to indentation. By bias, I mean that I would like the elements to get progressively smaller as they approach the mid-point. Does Gmsh have this capability? I don’t see it mentioned anywhere in the documentation or examples.

Regards,

John
