چکیده
On an automatically parallel generation technique for tetrahedral meshes Summary : In order to prepare modern nite element analysis a program for the eecient parallel generation of tetrahedral meshes in a wide class of three dimensional domains having a generalized cylindric shape is presented. The applied mesh generation strategy is based on the decomposition of some 2D-reference domain into single connected subdomains by means of its triangulations the tetrahedral layers are built up in parallel. Adaptive grid controlling as well as nodal renumbering algorithms are involved. In the paper several examples are incorporated to demonstrate both program's capabilities and the handling with.

A Combined Octree-advancing Front Method for Tetrahedra and Anisotropic Surface Meshes
A more automatic method for generation of tetrahedra and directional surface meshes are the two developments presented in this paper. Un-structured grids are generated for complex 3-D ge-ometries including multi-body domains. A combined octree-advancing front method is presented for the generation of the unstructured surface mesh as well as the tetrahedral volume mesh. The unique feature of thi...
متن کاملGPU surface extraction using the closest point embedding
Isosurface extraction is a fundamental technique used for both surface reconstruction and mesh generation. One method to extract well-formed isosurfaces is a particle system; unfortunately, particle systems can be slow. In this paper, we introduce an enhanced parallel particle system that uses the closest point embedding as the surface representation to speedup the particle system for isosurfac...
متن کاملTemplate-based finite-element mesh generation from medical images
The finite-element (FE) method is commonly used in biomedical engineering to simulate the behaviour of biological structures because of its ability to model complex shapes in a subject-specific manner. However, generating FE meshes from medical images remains a bottleneck. We present a template-based technique for semi-automatically generating FE meshes which is applicable to prospective studie...
متن کاملDefining Quality Measures for Validation and Generation of High-Order Tetrahedral Meshes
A procedure to quantify the distortion (quality) of a high-order mesh composed by curved tetrahedral elements is presented. The proposed technique has two main applications. First, it can be used to check the validity and quality of a high-order tetrahedral mesh. Second, it allows the generation of curved meshes composed by valid and high-quality high-order tetrahedral elements. To this end, we...
متن کاملProposal of Benchmarks for 3D Unstructured Tetrahedral Mesh Optimization
The goal of this paper is to help evaluate the tetrahedral mesh generation, adaptation and optimization algorithms. To achieve this goal, benchmarks are proposed consisting of simple and complete geometries. In order to evaluate the quality of the meshes, the concept of tetrahedron shape measure is clarified and used. Finally, as an example, these benchmarks are used to evaluate meshes optimize...
