A new method of unstructured mesh generation is presented. The advancing front method and Delauney triangulation have been commonly applied to it. In the former method, interior mesh nodes are generated based on the nodes on boundaries and parameters defined by the user. Unsuitable setting of parameters, however, may lead to failure in mesh generation. On the other hand, the latter method can accomplish mesh generation without failure, though the user has to set all the nodes. The present method, based on Delauney triangulation, requires the user to set only a few nodes on boundaries, and the other mesh nodes are generated automatically according to the curvature or proximity of boundaries. The perfomance of the presented method is illustrated in a region with multiple bodies.
