[Gmsh] stretching triangular elements

[Hanieh Mirzaee]

Jean,

Thanks again for getting back to me. I guess what I am looking for is a 
mechanism for "anisotropic unstructured grid" in gmsh. With transfinite 
I see that I can generate "anisotropic structured grids". Not sure if 
the former feature is available in gmsh yet.
