Abstract
This paper proposes a method to evaluate the size quality as well as the shape quality of constrained surface meshes, the constraint being either a given metric or the geometric metric associated with the surface geometry. In the context of numerical simulations, the metric specifications are those related to the finite element method. The proposed measures allow to validate the surface meshes within a general mesh adaption scheme, the metric map being usually provided via an a posteriori error estimate. Several examples of surface meshes are proposed to illustrate the relevance of the approach. Copyright © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
