The 2D Mesh module is used to construct two-dimensional finite element meshes. The mesh consists of nodes that are grouped together to form elements. Numerous [[GMS:2D Mesh Tool Palette|tools]] are provided for [[GMS:Creating a 2D Mesh|automated mesh generation]] and [[GMS:Editing 2D Meshes|mesh editing]]. 2D meshes are used for [[GMS:SEEP2D|SEEP2D]] modeling and to aid in the construction of 3D meshes. The figures below show an example of a SEEP2D model and a [[GMS:3D Mesh Module|3D mesh]] created using the 2D Mesh Module. | The 2D Mesh module is used to construct two-dimensional finite element meshes.
