CN=CN+1 in the case of a cell splitting– C: Serial number of each cell, range of C is 1~CN

Minor Areas:– AN: Global total minor surface number– A: Global serial number of a minor surface– ALN: Local total minor surface number is a cell– AL: Local serial number of a minor surface in a cell– LA: It is a two dimensional array which links a local

surface number to its global surface number. LA(C, AL)=A

12


Nodes:– NN: Total nodal number– N: Global serial nodal number– NLN: Total nodal number in a minor surface, now

NLN=3– NL: Local serial nodal number in a surface, now

NL=1,2,3– LN: It a three dimensional array, which links a local node

number to its global node number. LN(C, NL)=N

13


Minor Area and its Nodes Relation Arrays – : The first node of a minor area;– : The second node of a minor area;– : The third node of a minor area;

Coordinates and displacements of nodes:– x: coordinates of nodes in x axis, x(N)– y: coordinates of nodes in y axis, y(N)– z: coordinates of nodes in z axis, z(N)– u: x directional displacement of nodes, u(N)– v: y directional displacement of nodes, v(N)– w: z directional displacement of nodes, w(N)

Surface property:– J: the surface energy in a unit area, which will have

different value correspondent to the surface contact property.

Meshing Algorithm

Local node number– Increase the nodal number with the increment of i, j;– From top pole to the equatorial nodal ring, the increment

of the nodal number is 6,– After equatorial nodal ring, the nodal number inversely

reduces in each nodal ring– Nodal coordinates

Aims of the algorithm for the cell division

To choose to proper spatial surfaces to “cut” a cell C into two cells C1, C2 under the condition of averaging the cell’s volume;

To mesh the new cut surfaces for the two cells

Meshing new interface

Connecting C to the 6 nodes located on the longitudes get 6 radial lines;

Inserting (n-abs(n-k))-1 nodes equably in each radial lines;

Connecting new nodes in same radial layer sequentially from inner to outer;

From inner to outer radial layer, each new circumferential line section is inserted 0, 1,…, (n-abs(n-k))-1 nodes equably;

All nodes connecting their neighbor nodes to consist triangle elements

Heritage Nodal and Elemental Number from Un-divided Cell

Cell C1– The nodal number and element number before the k

element belt will inherit from the cell C directly Cell C2

– Renumber both the element number and nodal number inversely in cell C

– Change the nodal number in each nodal ring to match the nodal

– Nodal number and element number before the (2n-k) element belt of cell C2 can inherit from reversed cell C directly
