Towards a theory of automated elliptic mesh generation
Jeffrey Quinn Cordova · NASA Technical Reports Server (NASA) · 1992
The theory of elliptic mesh generation is reviewed and the fundamental problem of constructing computational space is discussed. It is argued that the construction of computational space is an NP-Complete problem and therefore requires a nonstandard approach for its solution. This leads to the development of graph-theoretic, combinatorial optimization and integer programming algorithms. Methods for the construction of two dimensional computational space are presented.
