Detailed Description

Creates the dual of a polyMesh, adhering to all the feature and patch edges.

Original source file polyDualMeshApp.C

Usage

polyDualMesh featureAngle

Detects any boundary edge > angle and creates multiple boundary faces for it. Normal behaviour is to have each point become a cell (1.5 behaviour)

Options:

• -concaveMultiCells

  Creates multiple cells for each point on a concave edge. Might limit the amount of distortion on some meshes.

• -splitAllFaces

  Normally only constructs a single face between two cells. This single face might be too distorted. splitAllFaces will create a single face for every original cell the face passes through. The mesh will thus have multiple faces in between two cells! (so is not strictly upper-triangular anymore - checkMesh will complain)

• -doNotPreserveFaceZones:

  By default all faceZones are preserved by marking all faces, edges and points on them as features. The -doNotPreserveFaceZones disables this behaviour.

  Note

  It is just a driver for meshDualiser. Substitute your own simpleMarkFeatures to have different behaviour.
