Hi All,
I am trying to make a FEM analysis by using a set of bones and muscle surfaces. I imported geometry information with different formats (stl, iges and step) to Gmsh and then import .msh format (3D mesh) to preview. But febio encountered Negative Jacobian error for all formats, for iges and stl formats it makes sens as mesh is surface information, but I it is strange for step format. to solve it I tried with Tetgen to make volume mesh but preview crashed! In attachment you can find different formats and related mesh information. May I ask you to help me what is the problem with negative jacobian error for step format and why I cant make volume mesh by tetgen?
Thanks,
Forough
