SAE Transactions, Vol. 100, Section 5: JOURNAL OF MATERIALS & MANUFACTURING (1991), pp. 1070-1089 (20 pages) An approach for the automatic generation and refinement of three dimensional finite element ...

Mesh generation is a pivotal component in computer aided design, serving as the foundation for numerical simulations and finite element analyses in diverse engineering and scientific domains.

Parametric features are becoming more common in FEA packages. The key benefit of parametric features is that they let users see the effects of design changes quickly. With adequate planning, users can ...

Solid modeling is great for visualizing ideas but it's often misapplied in finite-element analysis. One of the latest methods of slashing development time is to use the 3D models that CAD users create ...
