1998 ANSYS Conference and Exhibition

MESHING
RESEARCH
CORNER

A poster session was held at the 1998 Ansys Conference and Exhibition at which several papers related to mesh generation were presented by members of the Ansys Technical Staff and Carnegie Mellon graduate students. Most of these papers have been previously submitted to the International Meshing Roundtable or published previously at the 1997 McNu Conference. For convenience they are all referenced here. Some are available for download.
