Mesh Generation: Application to Finite Elements

by Pascal Frey, Paul Louis George

Overview

The aim of the second edition of this book is to provide a comprehensive survey of the different algorithms and data structures useful for triangulation and meshing construction. In addition, several aspects are given full coverage, such as mesh modification tools, mesh evaluation criteria, mesh optimization, adaptive mesh construction and parallel meshing techniques.
This new edition has been comprehensively updated and also includes a new chapter on mobile or deformable meshes.
