Summary
The importance of generating a quality mesh in order to obtain reliable computational
solutions was discussed. The hierarchy for a mesh element from the lowest to high-
est topology are points, lines, faces, and then volumes. Different mesh configura-
tions including structured (body-fitted, and multi-block) and unstructured (Delaunay
triangles), and meshing growth schemes (Quadtree, Octree, and Advancing Front)
