7 Below are some general notions about blocks:
9 A block is a an elementary geometric solid that has specific
10 geometric constraints oriented for meshing. In the hexahedral case,
11 blocks have 6 faces and each face has 4 edges.
13 Tetrahedral Block - is a block with constraints for tetrahedral
16 Hexahedral Block - is a block with constraints for hexahedral meshing.
18 Block Compound - is a compound composed of blocks only.
