AbstractThis Chapter presents a set of procedures that start from image data to construct a non-manifold geometric model that supports the effective generation of meshes with the types of mesh configurations and gradations needed for efficient simulations. The types of opera tions needed to process the image information be- fore and during the creation of the non-manifold geometric domains are outlined, with emphasis on those methods that are most appropriate for the analysis of mate- rials system’s behavior.
