SeismicMesh
A Python package for generating high-quality 2D/3D triangular meshes for finite element simulations, with parallel support and seismology applications.
What is SeismicMesh?
SeismicMesh is a Python package for generating high-quality triangular and tetrahedral meshes in 2D and 3D, primarily for finite element simulations. It solves the problem of creating simulation-ready meshes from complex geometries or seismic velocity models, ensuring geometric quality and numerical stability. The tool is an implementation of the DistMesh algorithm, enhanced with parallel processing and integration with the Computational Geometry Algorithms Library (CGAL).
Researchers and engineers in computational seismology, geophysics, and finite element analysis who need to generate high-quality meshes from velocity models or complex geometric domains. It is also suitable for developers in scientific computing requiring robust, parallel mesh generation capabilities.
Developers choose SeismicMesh for its focus on mesh quality, parallel performance, and direct integration with seismic data formats. Unlike some generic mesh generators, it offers specialized sizing functions from velocity models, sliver removal for 3D meshes, and the ability to handle complex domain operations like unions and differences.
