This article describes a cuboid structured mesh generator suitable for 3D numerical modelling using techniques such as finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) and transmission-line matrix (TLM). The mesh generator takes as its input an unstructured triangular surface mesh such as is available from many CAD systems, determines a suitable variable mesh discretisation and generates solid and surface meshes in a format suitable for import by the numerical solver. The mesher is implemented in the MATLAB language and is available as open source software.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
