Hi, <br>
<br>
In order to create the 8, 14, 20 node hexahedra elements for the
given shape in attacment, what path should I follow in Gmsh?<br>
<br>
Any entry point will be appreciated. <br>

Hi,<br>
<br>
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. <br>
<br>
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.<br>
<br>
<br>
Hope this helps,<br>
