Abstract
En 中文
This paper presents a new mesh optimization approach aiming to improve the mesh quality on the boundary. The existing mesh untangling and smoothing algorithms (Vachal et al. in J Comput Phys 196: 627-644, 2004; Knupp in J Numer Methods Eng 48: 1165-1185, 2002), which have been proved to work well to interior mesh optimization, are enhanced by adding constrains of surface and curve shape functions that approximate the boundary geometry from the finite element mesh. The enhanced constrained optimization guarantees that the boundary nodes to be optimized always move on the approximated boundary. A dual-grid hexahedral meshing method is used to generate sample meshes for testing the proposed mesh optimization approach. As complementary treatments to the mesh optimization, appropriate mesh topology modifications, including buffering element insertion and local mesh refinement, are performed in order to eliminate concave and distorted elements on the boundary. Finally, the optimization results of some examples are given to demonstrate the effectivity of the proposed approach.
