Research Abstract |
This research project aims at composing an algorithm fordecomposing the input 2D and 3D objects quadrilateral and hexahedral meshes, which aresets of quadrilaterals and hexahedra. This is an important process for transforming inputobjects into their discrete representations especially for finite element method analysis.Our idea is to synthesize an appropriate tensor field within the input object, and controlthe overall mesh topology by locating the degeneracy on the underlying tensor field. Thissuccessfully leads us to the generation of high-quality quadrilateral and hexahedralmeshes.
