Generation of the .stl file to import in DUALSPHysics
Hello,
I was with my team in Parma to the SPHERIC Workshop.
We would like to import a complex geometry from a .stl file, as we did during the training day in Parma.
We tried with Solidworks but it seems not to work (we tried only with the DPI importation function).
We are going to try directly with the .xml case file: what is the more suitable CAD program to generate a compatible .stl file? What did you use?
Thank you
Silvio

In my case, I create and convert directly the mesh (.stl and .ply) from matlab. But I already used rhinoceros 3D and it also works perfectly.

Use directly XML! You can see some examples with the package you download from our website

thank you all for the answers.
We used Freecad to generate .stl and then coded the importation in .xml case file. It works!
Now we try to give to the imported boundary geometry an angular velocity.
kind regards
