Mesh smoothing is demonstrated to be an e ective means of copying, morphing, and sweeping unstructured quadrilateral surface meshes from a source surface to a target surface. Construction of the smoother in a particular way guarantees that the target mesh will be a 'copy' of the source mesh, provide

✦ Synopsis
We present a new approach to quadrilateral mesh reÿnement, which reduces the problem to its structural core.
The resulting problem formulation belongs to a class of discrete problems, network-ow problems, which has been thoroughly investigated and is well understood. The network-ow model is exible enough to allow the simultaneous incorporation of various aspects such as the control of angles and aspect ratios, local density control, and templates (meshing primitives) for the internal reÿnement of mesh elements. We show that many di erent variants of the general quadrilateral mesh-reÿnement problem are covered. In particular, we present a novel strategy, which provably ÿnds a conformal reÿnement unless there is none.

In this paper, we obtain an improved discrete Wirtinger inequality associated with a nonlinear second order differential equation. We apply this result to prove a Bonnesen-style isoperimetric inequality for plane polygons and reinterpret the main theorem as a weighted exponential inequality.
In the paper the author presents a novel point of view for the refinement and derefinement algorithms of triangular nested meshes using fractal concepts and iterated function systems (IFS). The fractal behaviour can be understood in the sense that these meshes feature a remarkable amplifying invaria
Numerical simulations of viscous flow problems with complex moving and/or deforming boundaries commonly require the solution of the corresponding fluid equations of motion on unstructured dynamic meshes.
