Publications

This software is the culmination of our research efforts in serial dynamic meshing. The toolkit includes mesh warping, mesh quality improvement, and mesh untangling algorithms. In particular, the software in the toolkit includes implementations of the serial dynamic meshing algorithms described in the following publications and dissertations.

See the project website to access these publications. (Note: The publications and dissertations are numbered according to their numbering on the project website.)
