Progress report on the wisker weaving all-hexahedral meshing algorithm

1996 
In this paper, a review of the Spatial Twist Contiuum and the basic whisker weaving algorithm are given. Progress in the detection and resolution of several types of degeneracies formed by whisker weaving are discussed. These examples include so-called knife doublets, triple doublets, through-cells and through-chords. Knife doublets and triple doublets are resolved by preventing their formation a-priori, which forces whisker weaving to remove the element(s) causing the degeneracy. Through-chords and through-cells are left in the weave and resolved after the weave has been closed. The paper concludes with three examples of geometries ``closed`` by whisker weaving.
