چکیده

This paper presents current trends and issues in automatic mesh generation. Although automated mesh generation methods in two and three dimensions have been studied intensively, many analysis engineers still craft meshes manually for a certain class of analysis problems. In order to realize fully automated high-quality mesh generation, two technical issues need to be addressed: (1) automated mesh generators should be able to control the anisotropy and directionality of a mesh, and (2) geometric operations required prior to mesh generation should be made more robust and automated. This paper outlines recent development of the two technical issues in order to encourage further research and development of advanced mesh generation technology.

A mesh generation procedure to simulate bimaterials

It is difficult to develop an algorithm which is able to generate the appropriate mesh around the interfaces in bimaterials. In this study, a corresponding algorithm is proposed for this class of unified structures made from different materials with arbitrary shapes. The non-uniform mesh is generated adaptively based on advancing front technique available in Abaqus software. Implementing severa...

Simulation of Store Separation using Low-cost CFD with Dynamic Meshing

The simulation of the store separation using the automatic coupling of dynamic equations with flow aerodynamics is addressed. The precision and cost (calculation time) were considered as comparators. The method used in the present research decreased the calculation cost while limiting the solution error within a specific and tolerable interval. The methods applied to model the aerodynamic force...

Numerical Estimation of Fracture Parameters in Elastic and Elastic-plastic Analysis

The finite element method has been largely used to analyze mechanical problems and, in particular, to obtain the response of cracked structures. One of the major issues in using the method is mesh generation. Nowadays, several automatic mesh generation algorithms are available for two-dimensional models. Crack analysis imposes severe requirements on automatic mesh generation. It is not uncommon...

p-Version Mesh Generation Issues

Higher order (p-version) finite element methods have been shown to be clearly superior to low order finite element methods when properly applied. However, the application of p-version finite elements for general 3-D geometries requires the careful construction and control of the mesh. A 2-D elasticity problem with curved boundary is used to clearly illustrate the influence of the mesh shape geo...
