Mesh computation time

Hello

After meshing, I would like to know how much computation time was needed to mesh a model. I cannot find this information in SimVascular, maybe this data is stored somewhere ?
Thanks in advance for your help

Hello Antoine,

When running SV on Windows and Ubuntu a terminal window is opened that will display meshing information like this

Code: Select all

Output seconds:  0.001229
Total running seconds:  0.088882

Statistics:

  Input points: 2647
  Input facets: 5290
  Input holes: 0
  Input regions: 0

  Mesh points: 8561
  Mesh tetrahedra: 45723
  Mesh faces: 94091
  Mesh faces on facets: 5290
  Mesh edges on segments: 7935
  Steiner points inside domain: 5914

TetGen Meshing Finished...
On MacOS no window is opened so you will need to run SV from the command line in a terminal /Applications/SimVascular.app/Contents/Resources/simvascular


Cheers,
Dave

Hello David

I would like to have this information retrospectively. Anyway, I will have to relaunch all my meshes :roll:
In your example, a total running time of 0.08882 seconds seems very low; the meshing time for my models is typically on the order of an hour.
