Abstract In this article a new mesh generation algorithm is presented. The algorithm is based on a new approach called the vertex label assignment scheme to provide the information for the mesh generation so that parallel processing becomes possible. The algorithm generates 2D meshes of quadrilaterals on the basis of individual faces; conformity and smoothness of the resultant mesh are automatically assured. Local and selective mesh‐refinements are also supported. A regular quadrilateral network which defines the geometry of the problem and an associated subdivision level assignment which specifies mesh density data on the network are the only input information.
