Abstract
The third chapter discusses very important issues of grid generation, connected with a description of grid quality measures in forms suitable for formulating grid techniques. The definitions of the grid quality measures are based on the metric tensors and on the relations between the metric elements considered in Chap. 2. Special attention is paid to the invariants of the metric tensors, which are the basic elements for the definition of many important grid quality measures. Clear algebraic and geometric interpretations of the invariants are presented.
