Meshing capabilities for circular plates

Good afternoon, I’m writing this post to ask if there is method to obtain a structured mesh for a circular flare plate with a hole in the centre, as shown in the picture. I tried Shell Gmsh but didn’t succeed.

Thanks a lot to anyone helping out !!

To get nicely structured meshes, you can use the Shell Gmsh meshing algorithm. It offers so-called transfinite (mapped) meshing, but only for 3-sides and 4-sided faces so you would have to partition the syr

i used shell gmesh with after splitting the part -this is the best i got using these variables

for those with rhino 8 no partitioning is required if u use quadRemesh

The Quasi-structured Quad Gmsh algorithm is also very good to obtain nicely structured meshes. But partitioning (sometimes very detailed, even to the level of individual element layers) gives the most control over meshing.
