I realised that in the new version of mathematica (11.2.) there is a problem with boundary meshing. If I set the MeshOrder=2 the meshing procedure doesn’t recognise the boundary elements between two phases. Somehow lot of elements are not considered as boundary elements. This is quite problematic when i have to apply plane forces to the boundaries.
Needs["NDSolve`FEM`"]; sphere = BoundaryDiscretizeRegion[ ImplicitRegion[(x - 5)^2 + (y - 5)^2 + (z - 5)^2 >= 7, {x, y, z}], {{0, 10}, {0, 10}, {0, 10}}]; ym3D = ToElementMesh[sphere, "RegionHoles" -> None, "RegionMarker" -> {{5, 5, 5}, 1}] Show[ym3D["Wireframe"[PlotRange -> {All, {1, 7}, All}]]]
If i set the MeshOrder=1 than everything works well.
ym3D1 = ToElementMesh[sphere, "RegionHoles" -> None, "MeshOrder" -> 1, "RegionMarker" -> {{5, 5, 5}, 1}] Show[ym3D1["Wireframe"[PlotRange -> {All, {1, 7}, All}]]]
I didn’t have this problem in the previous version of Mathematica (11.0.) Can anybody help me how to avoid this problem/bug?
