Outline of Final Research Achievements

The computer simulation is exploited in various areas such as physics, space science, medical science and so on. It is required to make calculations fast and accurately for complex and large scale simulations. The adaptive tetrahedral mesh is one of the modeling methods to represent target objects for the purpose of the accurate simulations. Besides, GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) provides the massively parallelization for high-speed calculations.
In this research, algorithms to generate the adaptive tetrahedral mesh of three dimensional objects and search adjoining cells in the mesh are developed. The mesh model is exploited for high speed and accurate radiation simulations. Furthermore, an application software to visualize the mesh model was developed.
