Adaptive Mesh Coarsening for Quadrilateral and Hexahedral Meshes
Mesh adaptation methods can improve the efficiency and accuracy of solutions to computational modeling problems. In many applications involving quadrilateral and hexahedral meshes, local modifications which maintain the original element type are desired. For triangle and tetrahedral meshes, effective refinement and coarsening methods that satisfy these criteria are available. Refinement methods...
متن کاملAutomatic All Quadrilateral Mesh Adaption through Refinement and Coarsening
This work presents a new approach to conformal all-quadrilateral mesh adaptation. Most current quadrilateral adaptivity techniques rely on mesh refinement or a complete remesh of the domain. In contrast, we introduce a new method that incorporates both conformal refinement and coarsening strategies on an existing mesh of any density or configuration. Given a sizing function, this method modifie...
متن کاملLocalized Quadrilateral Coarsening
In this paper we introduce a coarsening algorithm for quadrilateral meshes that generates quality, quad-only connectivity during level-of-coarsening creation. A novel aspect of this work is development and implementation of a localized adaptation of the polychord collapse operator to better control and preserve important surface components. We describe a novel weighting scheme for automatic del...
متن کامل“CleanUp: Improving Quadrilateral Finite Element Meshes”
Unless an all quadrilateral (quad) finite element mesher is of a high quality, the mesh it produces can contain misshapen quads. This paper will describe “CleanUp”, written to improve an all quad mesh. CleanUp looks at improving node connectivity, boundary and flange patterns, quad shape, and to some extent, quad size. CleanUp is currently used in conjunction with the Paver algorithm developed ...
متن کاملFast Finite Element Method Using Multi-Step Mesh Process
This paper introduces a new method for accelerating current sluggish FEM and improving memory demand in FEM problems with high node resolution or bulky structures. Like most of the numerical methods, FEM results to a matrix equation which normally has huge dimension. Breaking the main matrix equation into several smaller size matrices, the solving procedure can be accelerated. For implementing ...
