Mesh problems

Submitted by nicolasoviedoc on Thu, 12/03/2015 - 19:06

Greetings to all of you,

I was running a simulation in liggghts, and this message appears:

Mesh output: element id 100384 (line 702690) has 6 neighs, but only 5 expected

It appears several times but with other elements, and in the end, this error message appears:

ERROR: Mesh output: elements 164318 and 163297 (lines 1150228 and 1143081) are duplicate
ERROR on proc 5: Fix mesh: Bad mesh, cannot continue. You can try re-running with 'heal auto_remove_duplicates' (../surface_mesh_I.h:468)

what is the meaning of the 6 neighs, but only 5 expected?

Cheers,

Nicolas.

Hi Nicolas,

please have a look at the " element_exclusion_list " and " 'heal auto_remove_duplicates" options for fix mesh/surface. It may help you :-)

best wishes
