Abstract A new algorithm for anisotropic triangular meshes generation in two dimension is presented. The inputs to the algorithm are the boundary geometry information and a metric tensor that specifies the desired element size and shape. The initial nodes are firstly distributed according to the above mentioned geometrical information, after bubble simulation, the optimized nodes set that meets the requirements of the metric tensor is obtained quickly. Then taking full advantage of the nodes set and the adjacency lists information provided by the process of node placement, a handful of non-satellite nodes are removed from the adjacency lists of the nodes… More >
