FileMeshGenerator
Support File Formats
The FileMeshGenerator is the default type for MOOSE and as the name suggests it reads the mesh from an external file. MOOSE supports reading and writing a large number of formats and could be extended to read more.
| Extension | Description |
|---|---|
| .e, .exd | Sandia's ExodusII format |
| .dat | Tecplot ASCII file |
| .fro | ACDL's surface triangulation file |
| .gmv | LANL's GMV (General Mesh Viewer) format |
| .mat | Matlab triangular ASCII file (read only) |
| .msh | GMSH ASCII file |
| .n, .nem | Sandia's Nemesis format |
| .plt | Tecplot binary file (write only) |
| .node, .ele; .poly | TetGen ASCII file (read; write) |
| .inp | Abaqus .inp format (read only) |
| .ucd | AVS's ASCII UCD format |
| .unv | I-deas Universal format |
| .xda, .xdr | libMesh formats |
| .vtk, .pvtu | Visualization Toolkit |
