mshr and dolfin

Question

I am using dolfin version 1.6.0 on a ubuntu 14.04. FEniCs is install from ppa-repository.

I am trying to create a spherical mesh. But somehow this does not work out

import dolfin
import mshr
center = dolfin.Point()
sphere = mshr.Sphere(center, 1.0)
mesh = dolfin.mesh(sphere, 20)

I am getting the following error: TypeError: 'module' object is not callable.

Is the mshr not supported in my current version?

Answer 1

Try to replace your last line with mesh = mshr.generate_mesh(sphere, 20).
