Abstract: A computer (100) for generating a mesh of a computer modeled, mechanical structure includes a data entry device (105) for receiving model data representative of a model and a hexahedron mesher (128) for automatically generating a mesh of the model using hexahedral elements. The hexahedron mesher (128) operates without user intervention other than an initial user-initiated command. The computer (100) also includes an analyzer (140) for performing finite element analysis on the mesh and a presentation device, such as a display (125), for presenting results of the finite element analysis.
