could you expand on this a little ?

Why fortran, is this your in house language? And after having read the grid what do you want to do with it? Translate it ?, interogate it ?

I do have something in mind, but the developer prefers to stay under the radar so as to speak.

Hi,

I have generated a 2D mesh using Gambit and now I need to read the mesh that is generated. Did you find or write any program in Fortran? Do you mind sharing it with me? I am really struggling with it and I would appreciate if you can please help me out.

Thanks
Bappi

Never used GAMBIT myself. But reading in mesh files aren't difficult if the mesh file is in ASCII text format and you have documentation of the mesh file format.


I have implemented mesh readers for SU2 grids and other proprietary grids for my own solver simply by looking at the documentations and trying to get some basic intuition of how things were organized in the file.



Give it a try. It's easier than what some might think.



Here's a documentation of the GAMBIT neutral file format. See if you have the same file format : https://web.stanford.edu/class/me469...mbit_write.pdf
