meshtyypit
Meshtyypit is a term used in computational geometry, computer graphics, and numerical simulation to classify the different categories and topologies of meshes that discretize geometric domains. Meshtyypit define how a continuous object is broken into discrete elements for processing by algorithms in finite element analysis, computational fluid dynamics, or visualization. The plural form emphasizes that there are multiple kinds of meshes that serve different purposes.
Common mesh types are divided into surface meshes and volume meshes. Surface meshes approximate two-dimensional manifolds
Mesh generation and quality: Meshes are produced by specialized algorithms: Delaunay-based triangulation, advancing-front methods, octree-based refinement,
Applications and considerations: Meshtyypit underpin simulations in engineering, physics, and graphics, including finite element method, finite
