import gmsh

After importing the python-gmsh package the following methods become accessible:

  • gmsh.initialize(): Initializes the gmsh API

  • gmsh.model.geo.addPoint(x, y, z, meshSize, tag): Adds a point at coordinates (x,y,z) with specified mesh size

  • gmsh.model.geo.addLine(startPointTag, endPointTag, tag): Creates a line between two points

  • gmsh.model.geo.addCircleArc(startPointTag, centerPointTag, endPointTag, tag): Creates a circular arc

  • gmsh.model.geo.synchronize(): Synchronizes the CAD model with the gmsh model

  • gmsh.model.addPhysicalGroup(dim, tags, tag, name): Creates named physical groups for boundary conditions

  • gmsh.model.geo.addCurveLoop(curveTags, tag): Creates a closed loop from curves

  • gmsh.model.geo.addPlaneSurface(wireTags, tag): Creates a surface from closed-loop boundaries

  • gmsh.model.mesh.generate(dim): Generates a mesh with specified dimension

  • gmsh.option.setNumber(name, value): Sets gmsh options

  • gmsh.write(filename): Writes the mesh to a file

  • gmsh.finalize(): Finalizes and cleans up the gmsh API
