conclusions using 3d ct scan to produce a prototype and reconstruct the mandible with a custom-made ti-mesh tray was useful. patient was followed up for 14 months. mandibular deviation was largely corrected. there was no complication in the donor site. no sign of extra or intra oral fistula, dehiscence or infection was detected. ti-mesh technique has three major advantages over other methods: i...

The method of auxiliary mapping (MAM) introduced by Babu ska-Oh((10]) was eecient and successful in dealing with plane elliptic boundary value problems containing singularities. In this paper, MAM is generalized for elliptic PDEs on non-smooth domains in R 3 : This method is tested in the framework of the p-version of the nite element method (FEM) for the axisymmetric Poisson equations containi...

A new moving staggered mesh discretization for the numerical simulation of incompressible flow problems involving free-surfaces is presented. The method uses the staggered mesh to obtain speed and conservation properties. Mesh motion provides a high quality mesh in the interior and detailed resolution of the free-surface motion on the surface. Mesh flipping allows for optimal mesh connectivity ...

In this paper, we introduce a mesh-free numerical framework using the finite pointset method for modeling and simulation of injection molding processes. When compared to well-established mesh-based methods, which have been widely applied these applications, our approach avoids need extensive preprocessing enables accurate treatment free surfaces other associated phenomena. To accurately model p...
