In this test case we want to remesh anisotropically the geometry of two boxes which represent buildings.
The following applications of Kratos are used:
- MeshingApplication with the MMG module
The problem corresponds with the figures:
The challenge consists in meshing anisotropically the geometry using as error measure the gradient of the distance. The initial mesh has a large number of elements, we want to reduce them. Additionally the remesher will consider the isosurface and we will remove the elements with a negative distance.
The results obtained after remeshing can be see in the following figure:
