Abstract:
<p>This is a Master’s thesis in how to make a tetrahedral mesh for use in a needle insertion simulator. It also describes how it is possible to make the simulator, and how to improve it to make it as realistic as possible. The medical simulator uses a haptic device, a haptic scene graph and a FEM for realistic soft tissue deformation and interaction. In this project a tetrahedral mesh is created from a polygon model, and then the mesh has been loaded into the HaptX haptic scene graph. The objects in the mesh have been made as different haptic objects, and then they have got a simple haptic sur

Abstract:
Mesh generation is a fundamental precursor to finite element implementations for solution of partial differential equations in engineering and science. This dissertation advances the field in three distinct but coupled areas. A robust and fast three dimensional mesh generator for arbitrarily shaped geometries was developed. It deploys nodes throughout the domain based upon user-specified mesh density requirements. The system is integer and pixel based which eliminates round off errors, substantial memory requirements and cpu intensive calculations. Linked, but fully detachable, to the mesh gen

Abstract:
In order to prepare modern finite element analysis a program for the efficient parallel generation of tetrahedral meshes in a wide class of three dimensional domains having a generalized cylindric shape is presented. The applied mesh generation strategy is based on the decomposition of some 2D-reference domain into single con- nected subdomains by means of its triangulations the tetrahedral layers are built up in parallel. Adaptive grid controlling as well as nodal renumbering algorithms are involved. In the paper several examples are incorporated to demonstrate both program's capabi

Abstract:
Parallel computing is being used more and more frequently in 3-D finite element (FE) mesh generation in electromagnetics, due to its improvements in efficiency. When applying parallel computing, the computational problem usually needs to be broken into discrete pieces, so that it can be solved simultaneously with multiple compute resources. Less time is then required than with a single compute resource. In this thesis, an algorithm for hierarchical tetrahedral---octahedral (HTO) subdivision was studied and implemented with a parallel message passing interface (MPI). The data structure was desi

The paper is concerned with algorithms for transforming hexahedral finite element meshes into tetrahedral meshes without introducing new nodes. Known algorithms use only the topological structure of the hexahedral mesh but no geometry information.

Abstract:
The ability to effectively adapt a mesh is a very important feature of high fidelity finite element modeling. In a finite element analysis, a relatively high node density is desired in areas of the model where there are high error estimates from an initial analysis. Providing a higher node density in such areas improves the accuracy of the model and reduces the computational time compared to having a high node density over the entire model. Node densities can be determined for any model using the sizing functions based on the geometry of the model or the error estimates from the finite element

Abstract:
We consider a posteriori error estimators that can be applied to anisotropic tetrahedral finite element meshes, i.e. meshes where the aspect ratio of the elements can be arbitrarily large. Two kinds of Zienkiewicz-Zhu (ZZ) type error estimators are derived which are both based on some recovered gradient. Two different, rigorous analytical approaches yield the equivalence of both ZZ error estimators to a known residual error estimator. Thus reliability and efficiency of the ZZ error estimation is obtained. Particular attention is paid to the requirements on the anisotropic mesh. The analysis is

Abstract:
Some boundary value problems yield anisotropic solutions, e.g. solutions with boundary layers. If such problems are to be solved with the finite element method (FEM), anisotropically refined meshes can be advantageous. In order to construct these meshes or to control the error one aims at reliable error estimators. For isotropic meshes such estimators are known but they fail when applied to anisotropic meshes. Rectangular (or cuboidal) anisotropic meshes were already investigated. In this paper an error estimator is presented for tetrahedral or triangular meshes which offer a much greater geom

Generating all hexahedral meshes on arbitrary geometries has been an area of important research in recent history. Hexahedral meshes have advantages over tetrahedral meshes in structural mechanics because they provide more accurate results with fewer degrees of freedom. Many different approaches have been used to create all-hexahedral meshes. Grid-based, inside-out, or superposition meshing all refer to a similar meshing approach that is a very common mesh generation technique.
