چکیده

This paper gives a procedure to control the size variation in a mesh adaption scheme where the size speci cation (the so-called control space) is used to govern the mesh generation stage. The method consists in replacing the initial control space by a reduced one by means of size or metric. It allows to improve, a priori, the quality of the adapted mesh and to speed up the adaption procedure. Several numerical examples show the e ciency of the reduction scheme. ? 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Finite Elements in Analysis andDesign

Finite Elements in Analysis and Design ()-This paper gives a status on anisotropic mesh gradation. We present two 3D anisotropic formulations of mesh gradation. The metric at each point defines a well-graded smooth continuous metric field over the domain. The mesh gradation then consists in taking into account at each point the strongest size constraint given by all these continuous metric fiel...

Intelligent Initial Finite Element Mesh Generation for Solutions of 2D Problems

The new strategy for non-uniform initial FE mesh generation is presented in this paper. The main focus is set to a priori procedures that define the sizing function independent on the mesh generation algorithm. The sizing function used by the mesh generation algorithm is established by control sphere and control space concepts and fully controls mesh gradation in the complex 2D problem domains.

Analyzing the effect of gradation on specific gravity and viscosity of barite powder used in excavation mud

Barite is an important additive material to increase the weight of excavation mud. It has been used extensively in the excavation mud industry. The barite particle sizes used in excavation mud is very important. There is a direct relationship between the amount on the sift of 200 and 325 mesh. By reducing particle sizes of the 200 and 325 mesh, the specific gravity of the barite power increased...

High Quality Geometric Meshing of CAD Surfaces

A wide range of surfaces can be defined by means of composite parametric surfaces as is the case for most CAD modelers. There are, essentially, two approaches to meshing parametric surfaces: direct and indirect. Popular direct methods include the octree-based method, the advancing-front-based method and the paving-based method working directly in the tridimensional space. The indirect approach ...

Centroidal Voronoi diagrams for isotropic surface remeshing

This paper proposes a new method for isotropic remeshing of triangulated surface meshes. Given a triangulated surface mesh to be resampled and a user-specified density function defined over it, we first distribute the desired number of samples by generalizing error diffusion, commonly used in image halftoning, to work directly on mesh triangles and feature edges. We then use the resulting sampl...
