A computer code for the generation of unstructured two-dimensional triangular meshes around arbitrary complex geometries has been developed. The code is based on Delaunay triangulation with an automatic point insertion scheme and a smoothing technique. The geometrical definition of the domain to be meshed is prescribed by means of B-spline curves obtained from two approaches of interest in Computer-Aided Geometric Design named inverse design and interpolation problems. The presented scheme is based on an interpolation procedure along a B-spline curve proposed by the author in a recent paper. This technique prevents that the resulting grid may overlap convex portions of the boundaries. The main goal is to study the possibility of extend the methodology of unstructured grid generation beginning with boundaries described by polylines to other in which they are prescribed by piecewise polynomials curves capable to drive more realistic problems. Several figures and examples from Computational Fluid Dynamics have been included to show the various steps of the algorithm. The results show that the code is able to solve the problem of automatic grid generation in a robust manner opening new perspectives for the development of a black-box grid generator. |
