Mesh Description

Multi-Dimensional Mesh:

Dimension	Geometries	Type of Elements
1-D	spherical, cylindrical or cartesian	line segments
2-D	cylindrical or cartesian	quadrilaterals or triangles
3-D	cartesian	hexahedra or degenerate hexahedra (tetrahedra, prisms, pyramids)

all with an unstructured (arbitrarily connected) format.

This presentation will assume a 3-D mesh.
