It takes a surface mesh\u2014defined either as raw vertex and face arrays or as a PyVista PolyData object\u2014and produces a volumetric tetrahedral mesh suitable for finite-element analysis, simulation, or other computational geometry tasks.\n\nThe library exposes two main interfaces: `tetrahedralize()` for raw numpy arrays and `tetrahedralize_pv()` for PyVista meshes. It offers control over mesh density via edge-length parameters, mesh quality via optimization settings, and computational efficiency via thread count. Pre-built wheels for Python 3.10\u20133.14 on major platforms make installation straightforward; the only runtime dependency is numpy.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you need tetrahedral mesh generation and can work with Python 3.10\u20133.14. The copyleft license (MPL 2.0) requires disclosure of modifications; active maintenance and pre-built wheels lower friction. No known vulnerabilities. Suitable for research, simulation, and computational geometry workflows where mesh quality and control matter."},"id":"pytetwild","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pytetwild","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pytetwild.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/pytetwild/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-05-17","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"copyleft","name":"pytetwild","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Python wrapper of fTetWild"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":114540,"position":12290,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.3.0"}
