 MetaMesh (the core of the AMaze series) is a versatile, fast and easy-to-learn program to create 3D meshes for finite-element calculations. The term
conformal means that elements are individually shaped to match object boundaries. The faithful representation of surfaces and the extended node coupling of the hexahedron mesh account for the high accuracy of
AMaze programs. MetaMesh is the only commercially-available 3D generator that creates ideal
structured meshes of conformal elements. Structure ensures that solution programs are easier to create, use memory more efficiently and run faster. As a baseline, the
HiPhi program can solve an electrostatic solution with 200,000 nodes in less than 1 minute on a standard PC. The
Magnum program for magnetostatics can handle over 5 million elements on a computer with 512 MB of memory. Available for Windows and Linux.
