\n \b MESH represents a discrete approximation of a subset of the
-three-dimensional space by \ref mesh_entities "elementary geometrical elements".
+three-dimensional space by \ref mesh_entities "elementary geometrical

+A SALOME study can contain multiple meshes, but they do not
+implicitly compose one super-mesh, and finally each of them
+can be used (e.g. exported) only individually.
Mesh module provides several ways to create the mesh:
<ul>
(quadratic triangle, quadrangle, polygon, tetrahedron, hexahedron,
pentahedron and pyramid) and with central nodes (bi-quadratic triangle
and quadrangle and tri-quadratic hexahedron).<br>
-Quadratic mesh can be obtained in two ways:
+Quadratic mesh can be obtained in three ways:
- Using a global \ref quadratic_mesh_anchor "Quadratic Mesh"
hypothesis. (Elements with the central node are not generated in this way).
- Using \ref convert_to_from_quadratic_mesh_page operation.
-
+- Using an appropriate option of some meshing algorithms, which
+generate elements of several dimensions starting from mesh segments.
