The 3D Mesh module is used to [[GMS:Creating a 3D Mesh|create]] and [[GMS:Editing a 3D Mesh|edit]] 3D finite element meshes. A 3D mesh can be created from a 2D mesh, a 3D grid, 3D scatter points, or by using the automated meshing tools in GMS. Once a mesh is constructed, the [[GMS:FEMWATER|FEMWATER]] interface can be used to assign boundary conditions and analysis parameters and perform a FEMWATER analysis. | The 3D Mesh module is used to [[GMS:Creating a 3D Mesh|create]] and [[GMS:Editing a 3D Mesh|edit]] 3D finite element meshes.

The module includes [[GMS:3D Mesh Tool Palette|tools]] for manipulating 3D meshes as well as its own [[GMS:3D Mesh Commands|menu commands]] and [[GMS:3D Mesh Display Options|display options]]. 3D meshes can be [[GMS:Converting 3D Meshes to Other Data Types|converted]] into 2D meshes, 3D scatter points, Ugrids, or solids. The module also can [[GMS:Classify Material Zones|classify material zones]] and use [[GMS:Isosurfaces|isosurface]] rendering. | |||
Currently, only one 3D mesh can exist in a GMS project. | |||
