Abstract
Mesh generation has great consequences on the results of finite elemen t method. There are many ways of meshing, but there are both geometric al and physical constraints during the finite element spatial discreti sation. The proposed toolbox includes the main methods of mesh generat ion and mixes all kinds of elements (prisms, tetrahedrons, bricks) tha nks to a new element of pyramidal shape, and increases the conditionin g of Finite Element Analysis.
