Abstract
Adaptive grid generation is a relatively new scheme for finite element analysis. A number of algorithms have been suggested by several autho rs. The methods have many limitations in their implementation. In this paper a simplified method for adaptive mesh generation by dividing co mplex domain into convex polygons based on Joe and Simpson and Delauna y triangulation is presented. The algorithm is applied to a number of two-dimensional problems to demonstrate the suitability of the method.
