[Gmsh] R: Problem in transformation of surfaces list

[Alessandro Vicini]

Hullo Ruth,

but the same kind of operation works fine in other cases that I have. The surface loops that define the volume are not changed by the rotation!

The reason why I need to do that operation AFTER having defined the volume is that I have an automatic procedure which reads a geo file, perform a translation/rotation on one geometry component specified through its physical surfaces IDs, generates the mesh and carry out the simulation . This is done in an outer loop so that many geometry modifications are analysed in the same run. For this reason the procedure appends the commands at the end of the geo file.
I guess the problem is related with the use of OpenCascade, because the same approach works fine in cases when the Built-In geometry kernel is used.

Hi Alessandro,

The problem is the order of the operations.
You do a rotation of surfaces that define volume 1.
That’s why they are kept.

The rotation is properly handled if you write it as follows:

tmp[] = Physical Surface {102,103};
Rotate {{1, 0, 0}, {-0.5, 0.65, -0.25}, Pi/6} {
   Surface {tmp[]};
}



Surface Loop(5) = {28, 23, 25, 27, 26, 24};
Surface Loop(6) = {9, 4, 6, 8, 7, 10, 1, 22, 18, 21, 20, 17, 19};
Surface Loop(7) = {15, 11, 13, 12, 16, 14};
Volume(1) = {5, 6, 7};
Physical Volume(999) = {1};


Best regards,
Ruth

Hullo everybody. In the last two lines of the attached geo file I retrieve the list of elementary surfaces ID from their physical IDs, and then apply a rotation to the list. However, only the edges are rotated, and the "old" surfaces and edges are not deleted after the operation. Why...? Thank you.

Alessandro
