Abstract
The present paper introduces an alternative approach for Delaunay tria ngulation, in which the triangulation is mapped from an equivalent con vex hull in a higher dimension. Furthermore, some fundamental aspects of a point creation algorithm for unstructured mesh generation have be en addressed based on numerical experiments. A point spacing tensor an d point insertion criterion have been introduced aiming to deal with a nisotropic meshes.
