Three-Dimensional Grid Adaptation Using a Mixed-Element Decomposition Method
نویسنده
چکیده
A new method for adaptive refinement of unstructured grids has been developed. This method ensures preservation of the element quality and the structural anisotropies of the initial grid. The flexibility of unstructured grids in combination with the implemented error estimation provides a powerful basis for three-dimensional simulation of tiine dependent processes.

Mixed-element decomposition method for three-dimensional grid adaptation
A new method for adaptive tessellation of threedimensional (3-D) grids is presented. A mixed-element decomposition method is introduced for local refinement of fully unstructured grids, consisting of tetrahedra and octahedra. The method preserves the shape of the elements of the initial grid and therefore the element quality. Furthermore, local anisotropies of the initial grid are preserved. Th...
متن کاملModified Fixed Grid Finite Element Method to Solve 3D Elasticity Problems of Functionally Graded Materials
In the present paper, applicability of the modified fixed grid finite element method in solution of three dimensional elasticity problems of functionally graded materials is investigated. In the non-boundary-fitted meshes, the elements are not conforming to the domain boundaries and the boundary nodes which are used in the traditional finite element method for the application of boundary condit...
متن کاملMixed-Mode Stress Intensity Factors for Surface Cracks in Functionally Graded Materials Using Enriched Finite Elements
Three-dimensional enriched finite elements are used to compute mixed-mode stress intensity factors (SIFs) for three-dimensional cracks in elastic functionally graded materials (FGMs) that are subject to general mixed-mode loading. The method, which advantageously does not require special mesh configuration/modifications and post-processing of finite element results, is an enhancement of previou...
متن کاملAdaptive Solution of Steady Two Dimensional Flow on an Unstructured Grid
Two-dimensional Euler equations have been solved on an unstructured grid. An upwind finite volume scheme, based on Roes flux difference splitting method, is used to discretize the equations. Using advancing front method, an initial Delaunay triangulation has been made. The adaptation procedure involves mesh enrichment coarsening in regions of flow with high low gradients of flow properties, acc...
