Re: How do I get from a .igs to a mesh file format for Elmer?

Hmmm...
I am not sure that I understand what you mean by "smaller duplicate of the object inside the model". The model consists of two bodies, one inside the other. They share a common face which is duplicated, and this is why meshing in gmsh fails. I am working on a workaround for this problem. For the model we are talking about, I am already able to generate a 3D mesh using my workaround. If Elmergrid would be able to mesh it directly, this would of course be much more elegant...
