Abstract
The problem of parametric surface meshing for the purpose of design optimisation using finite element analysis is considered. Here the surface mesh is generated as a solution of a suitably posed boundary value problem implemented on a 2D parameter space. A robust meshing scheme is presented where an initial mesh is manipulated, with the aid of the 2D parameter space, so as to obtain a suitable surface triangulation. This meshing scheme can then be used to create suitable finite element meshes with which accurate design optimisations can be carried out.
