Abstract

A two-dimensional adaptive triangulation algorithm based on geometric features of problem boundaries is proposed.Boundary curves are discretized firstly with curvatures and adjacencies considered,and the latter are calculated using the skeleton property of the constrained Delaunay triangulation.Then a modified Advancing Front Technique(AFT) is used to generate well graded meshes inside problem domains conforming to adaptive boundary discretization results.Some procedures are finally integrated to enhance mesh quality further.Mesh examples demonstrate that the algorithm can produce computing meshes with high element and gradation quality.
