Reviews
This book provides a well-structured and thorough treatment of very recent research on mesh generation, in a single well organized document. The descriptions of methods and algorithms are complete and provide readers with all the necessary information needed to implement on their own the algorithms and methods discussed in the book. Numerical examples provide concrete measures of the performance of the algorithms and can serve as a reference for those interested in validating their own implementations. -Francois Guibault, Polytechnique Montreal, Canada ...there are very few books on this subject. Daniel Lo's book (examining the contents) offers a practical point of view and gives details on some topics which, I think, are not cover[ed] by the other books on meshing techniques. -Houman Borouchaki, Universite de Technologie de Troyes, France This book brings together the major propulsion system components with control oriented models and actuators to enable software and hardware-in-the-loop simulations. ... This book will provide students with a detailed set of component models and simulation tools to learn Rapid Control Prototyping methods. -Douglas J. Nelson, Professor of Mechanical Engineering, Virginia Tech

Author Information
Daniel S.H. Lo received his Doc-Ing from L’Ecole Nationale des Ponts et Chaussees in France. He is currently a professor at the Department of Civil Engineering of the University of Hong Kong, and has been working on mesh generation for more than 30 years. Apart from numerous journal papers on mesh generation and finite element technology, Lo has also been the guest editor for two special issues on finite element mesh adaptation, co-author of a book on the finite element method, and author of book chapters on mesh generation.
