EdMesh
FracWorks provides a flexible tool for defining the geometry of discrete features.
EdMesh allows the user to modify the properties of discrete features and rock
blocks within continuum and discrete feature network models for flow and transport
simulation. EdMesh also provides facilities for mesh refinement and improvement
for the MAFIC finite element code.
EdMesh is a character based interactive application, and is used primarily
for modifying MAFIC finite element meshes on Unix workstations. A Java based
user interface is under development
