Hello Adrian,
I understand the usage of N in general examples wherein the geometry is created using indicators. The way we define N will determine the deltax value. However, I fail to understand how it will work when the geometry is imported using an STL file. The imported geometry has predetermined deltax value based on the triangulations. SolidWorks or FreeCAD will just spit out the STL files. How is Openlb communicating with these STL files and setting or resetting the deltax values based on a given N value?

Thank you.

Yours sincerely,

Abhijeet C.
