[Gmsh] using a msh file to define surfaces

[Ruth V. Sabariego]

Hi Wayne, 

You should use the new Gmsh features. 
Have a look at the corrected attached file and the examples in
https://geuz.org/trac/gmsh.
Note that I've refined once your original mesh for avoiding the singularity... 

Regards,
Ruth
