ABSTRACT
Building complex meshes for large-scale numerical simulations presents immense difficulties in exploiting high-performance computers. Industry and research leaders will describe the current state of the art for generating meshes for such large scientific problems. This will be followed by a panel and general audience discussion of the algorithmic and architectural issues surrounding the generation of meshes with 107 to 109 grid points. (Note: The terms "mesh" and "grid" are used interchangeably in the literature.)

5-6-7 meshes
GI '12: Proceedings of Graphics Interface 2012We introduce a new type of meshes called 5-6-7 meshes. For many mesh processing tasks, low- or high-valence vertices are undesirable. At the same time, it is not always possible to achieve complete vertex valence regularity, i.e., to only have valence-6 ...
Adaptive LOD editing of quad meshes
AFRIGRAPH '10: Proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Computer Graphics, Virtual Reality, Visualisation and Interaction in AfricaWe present a method for editing the LOD of quad meshes, which supports both adaptive refinement and adaptive coarsening. Starting at a base mesh, we generate a quad-dominant mesh which is consistent with the Catmull-Clark subdivision. Consistency is ...
Adaptive mesh coarsening for quadrilateral and hexahedral meshes
Mesh adaptation methods can improve the efficiency and accuracy of solutions to computational modeling problems. In many applications involving quadrilateral and hexahedral meshes, local modifications which maintain the original element type are ...
