Abstract
The quality of mesh elements including shape and size influences the performance of finite elements analysis, interpolation, and contouring. The existence of small angles is especially critical for conditioning of the stiffness matrix in finite elements methods. In this paper we present a boundary graded triangular mesh generation algorithm that allows for guaranteed bounds on angles. Our proof program shows that our algorithm bounds the minimum angle above 5.65.
