Various modes based on different datum geometrical elements, such as vertex, curve, surface, and so on, are then designed for generating local refined mesh. With the guidance of the defmed criteria, different modes are automatically selected to apply on the appropriate datum objects to program the element size in the local special areas. As a result, the control information of element size is successfully programmed covering the entire domain based on the geometrical features of 3D solid. A new algorithm based on Delatmay triangulation is then developed for generating 3D adaptive finite element mesh, in which the element size is dynamically specified to catch the geometrical features and suitable tetrahedron facets are selected to locate interior nodes continuously. As a result, adaptive mesh with good-quality elements is generated. Examples show that the proposed method can be successfully applied to adaptive finite element mesh automatic generation based on the geometrical features of 3D solid.展开更多

A method based on mesh grad-ing propagation which automatically produces a triangular mesh in a multiply connected planar region is presented in this paper. The method decomposes the planar region into convex subregions, using algorithms which run in linear time. For every subregion, an algorithm is used to generate shrinking polygons according to boundary gradings and form Delaunay triangulation between two adjacent shrinking polygons, both in linear time. It automatically propagates boundary gradings into the interior of the region and produces satisfactory quasi-uniform mesh.展开更多
