SCIENTIFIC COMPUTATION SEMINAR
- Friday, May 26, 1988
Dr. R. Falconer Henry, of the Institute of Ocean
Sciences, will speak on ``Interactive Design of
Irregular Triangular Grids''.
TIME: 10:30 AM
ROOM: DC 1302
ABSTRACT
For modelling of lakes or tidal ocean bodies, it is
necessary to generate meshes that can conform to
complex boundary geometrics and whose elements areas
are controlled by the bottom topography of the body.
In this talk, a mesh generation system developed at IOS
will be described which combines an automatic mesh
generator with an interactive colour graphics mesh
editor. This system enables a modeller to generate
triangulations that conform to irregular coastlines, in
which the triangle areas are proportional to the local
water depth, and the triangles are nearly equilateral
in shape.ylfink@water.waterloo.edu (ylfink) (05/24/88)
