چکیده

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 optimized by ADP3D, a 3D mesh optimizer. In doing so, a conception of mesh optimization is formulated.

Automatic 3D Mesh Generation for a Domain with Multiple Materials

This paper describes an approach to construct unstructured tetrahedral and hexahedral meshes for a domain with multiple materials. We have developed an octree-based isocontouring method to construct unstructured 3D meshes for a single material domain. Based on it, we analyze each material change edge instead of sign change edge to figure out interfaces between two materials, and mesh each mater...

Automatic 3D Mesh Generation of Multiple Domains for Topology Optimization Methods

This paper presents an automatic approach to generate unstructured tetrahedral meshes in the context of composite or heterogeneous geometry. Using B-Rep concepts and specific adaptations of advancing front mesh generation algorithms, this approach guarantees, in a simple and natural way, mesh continuity and conformity across the interior boundaries of a composite domain. This method presents a ...

An Automatic 3D Mesh Generation Method for Domains with Multiple Materials.

This paper describes an automatic and efficient approach to construct unstructured tetrahedral and hexahedral meshes for a composite domain made up of heterogeneous materials. The boundaries of these material regions form non-manifold surfaces. In earlier papers, we developed an octree-based isocontouring method to construct unstructured 3D meshes for a single-material (homogeneous) domain with...

Substructure Topology Preserving Simplification of Tetrahedral Meshes

Interdisciplinary efforts in modeling and simulating phenomena have led to complex multi-physics models involving different physical properties and materials in the same system. Within a 3d domain, substructures of lower dimensions appear at the interface between different materials. Correspondingly, an unstructured tetrahedral mesh used for such a simulation includes 2d and 1d substructures em...
