Abstract
GARCIA, FRANCISCO; PALACIO, CARLOS and GARCIA, URIEL. UNESTRUCTURED MESH GENERATION FOR NUMERIC MODELS IMPLEMENTATION. Dyna rev.fac.nac.minas [online]. 2009, vol.76, n.157, pp.17-25. ISSN 0012-7353.
A numerical tool was used for the automatic generation of unstructured meshes in the finite element method implantation. The generated meshes are used in the development of two dimensional (2-D) numerical models in the simulation of oceanic phenomena. For it, a package developed in Matlab based on Delaunay unstructured triangular grid refinement algorithms was used and complemented by a set of diagnostic utilities to check and improve grid quality.
