Fully automatic advancing front type mesh generator to take care of crack and fracture problems has been presented. It is coupled with Zienkiewicz and Zhu error estimator, the reÿnement methodology depends on the concept of strain energy concentration for adaptive analysis of mixed-mode crack proble

## Abstract This paper presents a generalized method which generates linear, triangular, quadrilateral and pentahedral elements for the finite element method. Depending on geometrical and material variations, the region to be discretized is manually divided into blocks such as lines, triangles, qua
## Abstract To reduce the manual work involved in the application of the FEM in practice, preprocessors can be applied for the construction of network structures, which are complicated in generation strategy and do not form any optimum discrete structure. The time necessary for generation can be mi
