MeshQualityGoal

MeshQualityGoal

is an option for DiscretizeRegion and related functions that specifies a mesh cell quality goal for the result.

Details

  • Possible settings include:
  • Automaticquality automatically chosen
    "Minimal"minimal quality, no quality goal
    "Maximal"maximal quality
    qquality
  • The automatically chosen quality goal may depend on PerformanceGoal and other option settings.
  • The quality measure is computed so that for regular polygons and polyhedra and for degenerate polygons and polyhedra .
  • It is generally not possible to generate a mesh to satisfy MeshQualityGoal->1. In this case, the meshing routine will try for the best quality that can typically be achieved.

Basic Examples  (1)

Triangulate an octagon with a minimal number of triangles:

Triangulate with more regular triangles:

Scope  (2)

Triangulate an octagon with the "Minimal" and "Maximal" number of triangles:

Triangulate with more regular triangles, but no measure constraint:
