“…Various existing surface mesh generation algorithms were investigated for their application as a mapping mesh generator for AM textile data generation, including:- indirect or parametric space types (Marur, 2005);
- advancing front types (Borouchaki et al , 2000); and
- direct and indirect sphere packing types (Shimada et al , 1997).
Additionally, several commercially available finite element (FE) pre‐processors were also explored, including:- Fluent Gambit (Fluent, 2011).
