[Gmsh] Problem with the Boolean Operation

Hello Juan,
Thank you very much for your answer.
I already tried the solution you gave me. I tried to add a specific box in order to refine the mesh in specific part but unfortunately, I did not obtain the result I wanted
As a result, this solution is not suitable for my problem (in 2D and 3D case)
So, I just would like to know : how does GMSH keep the mesh size on the points after a Boolean operation ? Does GMSH chose the size randomly ? Does GMSH chose the size thank to the points' index ?
Thank you very much for your answer,
Kind regards,

Hi Benoit,
I recommend a background field. Here is a project where I did some refinement (based on electric field) for a semiconductor simulation.
https://github.com/devsim/devsim_bjt_example
All the simulation files are there, as well as a book chapter in pdf form.
At that time of the work, the boolean operations were not available in gmsh.
Regards,
Juan
