A Comparison of Inexact Newton and Coordinate Descent Meshoptimization Technqiues

Conference ·
OSTI ID:15014454
We compare inexact Newton and coordinate descent methods for optimizing the quality of a mesh by repositioning the vertices, where quality is measured by the harmonic mean of the mean-ratio metric. The effects of problem size, element size heterogeneity, and various vertex displacement schemes on the performance of these algorithms are assessed for a series of tetrahedral meshes.
