Mesh Generation and Adaptation Cutting-Edge Techniques

The developments in mesh generation are usually driven by the needs of new applications and/or novel algorithms. The last decade has seen a renewed interest in mesh generation and adaptation by the computational engineering community, due to the challenges introduced by complex industrial problems.

Rubén Sevilla is a Professor at the Zienkiewicz Centre for Computational Engineering at Swansea University, Wales, UK. His research interest is the development, analysis and application of high-order methods. He is particularly interested in methods that are able to account for the exact boundary representation given by a CAD model. He is the current President of the UK Association for Computational Mechanics.
