{ TWOZ_IMPORT.PDE
This problem constructs two non-coplanar spheres inside a box using an extrusion
surface generated by TWOZ_EXPORT.PDE, which must be run before this problem.
The domain consists of three layers.
layer 1 is the space below the spheres
layer 2 contains the sphere bodies, and is of zero thickness outside the spheres
layer 3 is the space above the spheres
The sphere interiors are Void, and are thus excluded from analysis. You could just as
well fill them with material if you wanted to model the insides.
The bounding surfaces of layer 2 are specified as a default surface read from a
TRANSFER, over-ridden by regional expressions within the (X,Y) extent of each sphere.
Click "Controls->Domain Review" to watch the mesh construction process.
See TWOZ_DIRECT.PDE and TWOZ_PLANAR.PDE for other methods of treating spheres
with centers on differing Z coordinates.
