The objective of this work is to compare the influence of hexahedral mesh vs tetrahedral mesh in cervical spine and its effect to measure the biomechanical stresses and its motion at different motion segments. The model was meshed using linear hexahedral mesh and linear tetrahedral mesh. A ...
The first procedure is for purely tetrahedral grids; unfortunately, repeated anisotropic adaptation may significantly deteriorate the quality of the mesh. Hexahedral elements, on the other hand, can be subdivided anisotropically without mesh quality problems. Furthermore, hexahedral meshes yield more ...
(2009) [56], who could find good agreement for distal bone sections of the radius using longer bone sections (hence having damage far from the boundaries) and using tetrahedral elements. In the present study, we could improve the prediction agreement by using thinner elements in the cortex, ...
Tetrahedral Volume Elements The polyhedral mesh is derived directly from the tetrahedral mesh by forming polygons around each node in the tetrahedral mesh. Volume Element Counts Convergence The pressure residual for each mesh type is shown below. Pressure Residuals Monitor The solution on the polyhedral...

Mesh untanglingWhisker weavingWe investigate a well-motivated mesh untangling objective function whose optimization automatically produces non-inverted elements when possible. Examples show the procedure is highly effective on tetrahedral meshes and on many hexahedral meshes constructed via mapping or sweeping ...
Comparison of hexahedral, tetrahedral and polyhedral mesh for reproducing the flow field around an isolated building by LESPolyhedral mesh is very economic, which can achieve\nacceptable accuracy, while less calculation resource is required.\nBoundary layer mesh is important to reproduce accurate\n...
