Mechanical engineering, an engineering discipline forged and shaped by the needs of the
industrial revolution, is once again asked to do its substantial share in the call for industrial …

The newest vertex strategy for local refinement in two dimensions is reviewed and
discussed. A recursive algorithm for local refinement of tetrahedral meshes in three …

This paper describes an effective anisotropic mesh adaptation procedure for general 3D
geometries using mesh modification operations. The procedure consists of four interacted …

In this paper I introduce a new mathematical tool for dealing with the refinement and/or the
improvement of unstructured triangulations: the Longest‐Edge Propagation Path associated …

A 3‐D refinement algorithm for tetrahedral meshes is presented and discussed. An empirical
study of the reduction of solid angle size due to repeated subdivisions has shown the …

This paper presents a parallel adaptation procedure (coarsening and refinement) for
tetrahedral meshes in a distributed environment. Coarsening relies upon an edge collapsing …

Let $\mathcal {T} $ be a tetrahedral mesh. We present a 3-D local refinement algorithm for
$\mathcal {T} $ which is mainly based on an 8-subtetrahedron subdivision procedure, and …

In this paper we present a novel approach to the development of a class of local simplicial
refinement strategies. The algorithm in two dimensions first subdivides certain edges. Then …

A mesh generation approach that allows the local modification of meshes of simplices is
reviewed and discussed. The generation and modification of sequences of nested irregular …

The finite-element method used in conjunction with adaptive mesh refinement algorithms
can be an efficient tool in many scientific and engineering applications. In this paper we …
