Abstract
In this article, two possible ways to build volumetric meshes of simplexes are described. One structure uses the crystalline organization of carbon atoms in diamond and it is used to simulate the deformation under internal pressure of a container. The second structure is in layers and it is used to simulate human body tissues that could be cut. We also describe the cutting process for this layered structure.
