Abstract
For structure analysis with the finite element method (FEM), the hexahedral element is preferable to the tetrahedral one from the viewpoint of accuracy. Previously, we had introduced a label-driven subdivision method for a two-dimensional mesh and showed that the meshes generated by our method were useful for structural analyses. In this study, we extend our two-dimensional algorithm to three-dimensions and verify that the meshes generated by the proposed mesh-subdivision algorithm are useful for structural analyses.
