-The Divided disk object is a disk divided into \b blocks. It means that it's a shape prepared for hexaedral meshing.
+The Divided disk object is a disk divided into \b blocks for easy hexahedral meshing. Two division patterns are available :
+
+
+- A square pattern, which is frequently used;
+- A hexagonal pattern, which ensures a better mesh quality and especially less acute or obtuse angles.
+
+
+
+\n Moreover, this shape can be used as a basis in an \ref create_extrusion_alongpath_page "Extrusion along a path" operation in order to obtain any tube shape prepared for hexahedral meshing
+(see example below). (Another alternative is to create a 2D mesh on the divided disk and create a 3D mesh by extrusion in the SMESH module.)
