Image-based meshing is opening up exciting new possibilities for the application of
computational continuum mechanics methods (finite-element and computational fluid …

Automated hexahedral element meshing has been the 'Holy Grail'of mesh generation
research for years. The rigid connectivity and shape constraints of these meshes provide the …

From the Publisher: An Introduction to CAD/CAM/CAE is a timely text with coverage of many
modern topics, including: rapid prototyping, virtual engineering, NT-based solid modeling …

We describe an approach to construct hexahedral solid NURBS (Non-Uniform Rational B-
Splines) meshes for patient-specific vascular geometric models from imaging data for use in …

A mesh is a discretization of a geometric domain into small simple shapes, such as triangles
or quadrilaterals in two dimensions and tetrahedra or hexahedra in three. Meshes find use …

Applications of of the medial axis have been limited because of its instability and algebraic
complexity. In this paper, we use a simplification of the medial axis, the θ-SMA, that is …

Cutting-Edge Techniques to Better Analyze and Predict Complex Physical Phenomena
Geometric Modeling and Mesh Generation from Scanned Images shows how to integrate …

In this work a new method for CAD model simplification is presented. The method is
especially suited for simplifications performed in preparation for meshing the models. It uses …

Considerable progress has been made on automatic hexahedral mesh generation in recent
years. A few automated meshing algorithms (eg mapping, submapping, sweeping) have …

Whisker Weaving is an advancing front algorithm for all-hexahedral mesh generation. It uses
global information derived from grouping the mesh dual into surfaces, the STC, to construct …
