Hello everyone,
I am trying to run snappy on my STL files but I have this error message. Apparently, it cannot find "Cannot determine normal vector from patches" I have already check the concerned twoDPointCorrector.C file and it comes from this : Code:
if (mag(pn) < VSMALL) { FatalErrorInFunction << "Cannot determine normal vector from patches." << abort(FatalError); } else { pn /= mag(pn); } This is the error I get : Code:
Checking initial mesh ... Checking faces in error : non-orthogonality > 65 degrees : 0 faces with face pyramid volume < 1e-13 : 0 faces with face-decomposition tet quality < 1e-15 : 0 faces with concavity > 80 degrees : 0 faces with skewness > 4 (internal) or 20 (boundary) : 0 faces with interpolation weights (0..1) < 0.02 : 0 faces with volume ratio of neighbour cells < 0.01 : 0 faces with face twist < 0.02 : 0 faces on cells with determinant < 0.001 : 0 Detected 0 illegal faces (concave, zero area or negative cell pyramid volume) Checked initial mesh in = 0.28 s Smoothing patch points ...
