Introduction to meshing

Here, we will present you a meshing program called "maillage" in French. Meshing means dividing a domain for example a rectangular one into a set of triangle pieces perfectly superposed.

Context

Many issues in real life lead scientists to adopt a scientifical approach to respond correctly to these issues. This scientifical approach requires to perform mathematical operations. For instance, if we want to determine the temperature of a specific point of warmed plate using given temperatures of some area, Scientist will use scientific tools to respond to that question. Among these scientific tools, we can name operations on matrix, meshing of a domain, etc.

Actually, some of these operations are very hard to realize by a human. Because of the huge amount of data processing and the performance speed needed to perform some complex operations. So human rely on the capabilities of computers in term of time processing and storage to be able to response to issues faced in real life.

Problematic

Scientist need to perform some mathematical operations using computer. So there are plenty of programs to implement to automate those operations. Here, we will focus on creating a program to perform meshing operations in a convex domain. How to implement such a program?

Goals

• Being able to represent a convex domain in machin
• Being able to mesh this domain

Features of the program

This meshing program has many features:

• User can create, modify or delete a visible convex domain;
• After the convex domain is printed, User can launch meshing operation in this domain;
• Alternatively, user can charge a file containing already meshed domain, for mor ease;
• For a more friendly look to the meshing result printed, user can zoom the domain;
• Finally, he can save the meshing result in a file to be downloaded for future use;

Technologies used in program

• HTML
• CSS
• Javascript
• PHP

Running the program

Here, we will perform step by step actions to:

• Create a new convex domain;
• Proceed to the meshing operation of this domain:
• Save the meshed domain on a file for future use;

App Demo

1. Creating a convex domain

2. Meshing a convex domain
