Title
The All-Hex Geode-Template for Conforming a Diced Tetrahedral Mesh to any Diced Hexahedral Mesh
Abstract
Abstract. Take a hexahedral,mesh and an adjoining tetrahedral mesh,that splits each boundary,quadrilateral into two triangles. Separate the meshes with a buffer layer of hexes. Dice the original hexes into eight, and the tetrahedra into four hexahedra. Then I show that the buffer layer hexes can be filled with the geode-template, creating a conforming,all-hex mesh of the entire model. The geode-template is composed,of 26 hexahedra. The hexahedra,have acceptable quality, depending on the geometry of the buffer layer. The method used to generate the geode-template is general, based on interleaving completed dual surfaces, and might be extended to other transition problems. keywords. mesh generation, hexahedra, tetrahedra, conforming, transition
