Hexahedral Mesh Generation Method Based on Sheet-Division

For the purpose of developing a hexahedral mesh generation technique which ensures the boundary quality, considers global information and has the potential to speed highly, we presented a hexahedral mesh generation method based on sheet-division. First, we extended the loop of the surface of a solid to a layer of hexahedral elements, and then divided the solid into two smaller sub-solids by the layer, finally dealt with them recursively until all the sub-solids are empty. A strategy of divide-and-conquer used in this method is suitable for parallelization. The testing results show that the quality of the meshes generated by this method is similar with those produced by the current state-of-art mesh generation methods.
