Opis

This book develops basic meshing algorithms to deal with problems with specific requirements such as adaptive and anisotropic meshing and mesh optimization. It explains the fundamentals of popular techniques, describing and illustrating each approach with examples. Beyond the algorithms, the book also explores the practice of using metric tensor and strategies for generating anisotropic meshes. The authors provide illustrations of major meshing algorithms, pseudo codes, and programming codes in C++ or FORTRAN.

O autorze

Daniel S.H. Lo received his Doc-Ing from L’Ecole Nationale des Ponts et Chaussees in France. He is currently a professor at the Department of Civil Engineering of the University of Hong Kong, and has been working on mesh generation for more than 30 years. Apart from numerous journal papers on mesh generation and finite element technology, Lo has also been the guest editor for two special issues on finite element mesh adaptation, co-author of a book on the finite element method, and author of book chapters on mesh generation.
