This is a GUI version of Im2mesh package.
Standalone desktop application: Installer (No need to install MATLAB)
Tutorial: Im2mesh_GUI Tutorial.pdf
News
  • Version 2.42 adds more settings for plotting mesh.
  • Version 2.23 supports manual multi-thresholding.
  • Version 2.20 supports Gmsh.
  • Version 2.16 updates the DOI. Im2mesh is now citable.
Features
  • Exactly preserve the contact detail between different phases.
  • Incorporates polyline smoothing and simplification
  • Able to avoid sharp corners when simplifying polyline.
  • Support phase selection before meshing.
  • 4 mesh generators are available for selection: MESH2D, generateMesh, Gmsh, and pixelMesh.
  • Generated mesh can be exported as mat file (MATLAB), xls file (Excel), inp file (Abaqus), bdf file (Nastran bulk data, compatible with COMSOL), msh file (Gmsh), and MATLAB PDE model object.
  • The mesh can also export as other fomat files via Gmsh, such as STL, KEY, and VTK.
Installation
  • Im2mesh_GUI can be installed in two ways: MATLAB app or standalone desktop application.
Acknowledgments
Great thanks Dr. Yang Lu for providing valuable suggestions and testing of export formats. I also appreciate Dr. Darren Engwirda for the open-source mesh generator.
