eng Abstract:
Triangulation 2D and 3D methods represent an import ant part of numerical modeling process (e.g. FEM). In many applications it is suitable to use triangulati ons with a regular structure. Moreover, decompositi on with a limited number of different types of tetrahedra ena bles to reduce the storage and computational demand s in the whole modeling process. The submitted contribution presents an overview of possible 3D decompositions using one tetrahedron (regular tilings). These decomposit ions are confronted with decompositions using six d ifferent types of tetrahedra (orthogonal structured tilings) . Considering the shape expressivity of particular methods, the paper presents a structure of possible decompositio ns and comparison of storage demands of the used decompositions.
