Abstract
Automated mesh generation using a combined octree/Delaunay approach ty pically requires that rectangular elements be bounded by other rectang ular elements which are not more that one division smaller (i.e. 1/8 t he volume in 3D). This limitation is sometimes referred to as the 2:1 rule. This paper presents a modification which allows for any level of difference.
