Summary: Mesh generation plays a fundamental role in numerical simulation for aeronautics, oil and gas exploration and computational mechanics (to name but a few). This research project concerns the development of a novel, flexible 3D meshing algorithm adapted to certain numerical simulations. The goal of the project is to consider some geometrical aspects of the problem (namely the fast and robust computation of a restricted Voronoi diagram).
