A sensitivity analysis has been used to determine the energy perturbation of the nodal position in a finite-element mesh. The sensitivity of the nodal position gives the refinement indication and can therefore be used in the adaptive procedure. This method provides an alternative approach to adaptive mesh generation and is illustrated by numerical examples.>
