Dear All.

I have a following problem. I have a cloud of points in a format x y z in each row of the text file.

This cloud of points represents a 3D boundary of some soild. I have to read the points, treat them as a boundary of a solid, probably convert to a solid. Then, I have to compute some BVP using: Coefficient Form PDE. My cloud of points represents a 3D boudary.

I have read the post availabe at: https://www.comsol.com/blogs/how-to-convert-point-cloud-data-to-surfaces-and-solids/ but my my situation it does not help.

I will be very grateful for your help. With best regards, Malgorzata

Hello Malgorzata,

Can you expand on why the blog post does not help in your case?

Dear Jeff.

Thank you very much for your quick answer. The post seems to help in a little bit different case, i.e. when we have a cloud of points that form an open surface. In my case a cloud of points looks like a kind of irregular sphere (see the picture enclosed). I tried to change some options in Comsol, but the result seems to be like a surface, not like a 3D boundary. However, you know Comsol much better.

With best regards, Malgorzata

Why not split the data into several patches that add up to the full surface?

Dear Jeff. I am afraid this boundary is rather irregular. The points are generated with some algorithm proposed by my colleague. I am not convinced how to split the data into several patches and if it is even possible. With best regards, Malgorzata
