e-Design is the first book to integrate discussion of computer design tools throughout the
design process. Through this book, the reader will understand... Basic design principles and …

We propose a novel framework for computing the medial axis transform of 3D shapes while
preserving their medial features via restricted power diagram (RPD). Medial features …

In this paper, a quadtree-based mesh generation method is described to create guaranteed-
quality, geometry-adapted all-quadrilateral meshes with feature preservation for arbitrary …

New techniques are presented for using the medial axis to generate decompositions on
which high quality block-structured meshes with well-placed mesh singularities can be …

This paper proposes a framework for generating mesh sizing functions for assembly models.
Size control is crucial in obtaining a high-quality mesh with a reduced number of elements …

This paper presents an extension of the all-quad meshing algorithm called LayTracks to
generate high quality hex-dominant meshes of general solids. LayTracks3D uses the …

In the context of any domain decomposition meshing strategy, this paper describes a
quadrilateral mesh generation algorithm ideally suited for subdomains in which transition of …

Generalized Bézier patches with curved domains can represent complex, multi-sided
surfaces, but do not provide explicit control over the interior of the surface, as they are …

Two of the most successful methods to generate unstructured hexahedral meshes are the
grid-based methods and the advancing front methods. On the one hand, the grid-based …

In this paper, we present a novel hexagon-based mesh generation method which creates all-
quadrilateral (all-quad) meshes with guaranteed angle bounds and feature preservation for …
