TetGen
TetGen is a program to generate tetrahedral meshes of any 3D polyhedral domains. TetGen generates exact constrained Delaunay tetrahedralizations, boundary conforming Delaunay meshes, and Voronoi partitions.
TetGen versions up to v1.6.0 have been developed by Hang Si (@sihang0592) at Weierstrass Institute for Applied Analysis and Stochastics, (WIAS) Berlin. This repository provides the source code of the most recent versions of TetGen as repository releases:
- v1.4.3, 2011: MIT licensed with noncommercial clause
- v1.5.0, 2013: AGPLv3 licensed
- v1.5.1, 2018: AGPLv3 licensed, recommended as most stable version
- v1.6.0, 2020: AGPLv3 licensed, latest version with some rough edges
In addition, it is planned to publish future versions of TetGen via this repository.

Commercial licensing
TetGen versions developed at WIAS are distributed under a dual licensing scheme.
As an alternative to the use of TetGen under the AGPLv3 license, consider the option to obtain a commercial
license for a fee. These licenses are offered by the Weierstrass
Institute for Applied Analysis and Stochastics (WIAS). As a rule,
licenses are provided "as-is", unlimited in time for a one time
fee. Please send corresponding requests to:
tetgen at wias-berlin.de. Please do not forget to include some
description of your company and the realm of its activities.
Due to the change of affiliation of Hang Si, the contination of this dual licensing scheme for future versions of TetGen is uncertain.
