<title>EXAMPLES</title>
<para>
The wing is described in two files: wing.node and wing.poly.
The command line:
tetgen -pq wing
generates the quality mesh in three files:
wing.1.node, wing.1.ele, and wing.1.face.
</para>
<para>
Default, the radius-edge ratio of each tetrahedron is bounded below 2.0.
You can impose a tight bound by adding a number directly after the '-q'
switch. Like this:
tetgen -pq1.2 wing
generates a quality mesh which have more points
inserted than the mesh created in above.
</para>
<para>
See http://tetgen.berlios.de/switches.examples.html for more examples.
