Automatic mesh generation in 2-D and 3-D objects

Abstract

The object of the paper is to propose a simple method of mesh generation for objects with complicated boundary configurations and present a program which can generate the element data required for Finite Element Analysis based on these methods. The area to be meshed is considered as a combination of different sub-areas which are further sub-divided into the required number of triangular elements. The main part of the program developed in FORTRAN is included in this paper.
