How to close the 'holes' of a mesh

Simbody is useful for internal coordinate and coarse grained molecule modeling, large scale mechanical models like skeletons, and anything else that can be modeled as bodies interconnected by joints, acted upon by forces, and restricted by constraints.

How to close the 'holes' of a mesh

Post by Mary K » Mon Feb 29, 2016 6:10 pm

Hello there,
is there any way in Simbody - or other software - that I can close all the holes on my mesh, so it'll be valid for simbody simulations?

It will be ok if it replaces holes with a single face (e.g. a triangle).

Thanks,
Maria K.

Hi, Maria. You need a mesh editing program. I have used MeshLab (http://meshlab.sourceforge.net) which is free and seems to work well.
