Hello all, I know this question has been posted many times, but I am having problems meshing a sharp leading edged delta wing in Gambit. I am able to mesh the faces just fine using size functions, but then I try to mesh the volume using tet/hybrid and it keeps telling me "initialization failed; perturb ...." I am sure many of you are familar with this error.Also if it would help, I would be happy to email the .dbs file to you. Should you need it my email is mclively@yahoo.com. Please, any help would be greatly appreciated.

apply a size function (meshed option) and set your fine surface mesh as source

I actually found an issue with the geometry and replaced it fixing that problem. Now my issue is I am trying to wrap a 3D boundary layer around the delta wing. I am having problems with Gambit creating inverted elements at the sharp leading edge of the wing.

I am given the warning while it is meshing telling me:
"WARN: The interior angle of volume volume.1 along following edges is too large for side type boundary layer, which may generate poor elements: edge.8 and edge.7 ."

How do I get around this? Thanks again for your help.

Here are some pictures of the geometry that I am using. Any advice you could give me would be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much for your help and have a great day.
