Few inverted or poor quality elements can ruin both the accuracy and efficiency of numerical solutions. This paper proposes improved mesh untangling and quality improvement methods using the modified mesh quality metric for 2D triangular meshes. The new mesh quality metric ensures highly inverted elements assign higher penalty when the signed area of the element is negative, and also produces more accurate signed areas for valid elements. Therefore, the proposed methods can quickly remove inverted elements and also improve worst element qualities compared with the existing methods. We also combine Delaunay-based edge flip with optimization-based mesh untangling and quality improvement methods to further improve worst element qualities. Numerical results show that the proposed methods yield better quality meshes for improvement of the worst quality and are faster than existing methods.

Existing mesh untangling algorithms are unable to untangle highly tangled meshes. In this study, we address this problem by proposing an iterative mesh untangling algorithm using edge flip. Our goal is to produce meshes with no inverted elements and good element qualities when inverted elements with poor element qualities are produced during mesh generation or mesh deformation process. Our proposed algorithm is composed of three steps: first, we iteratively perform edge flip; subsequently, optimization-based mesh untangling is conducted until all inverted elements are eliminated; finally, we perform mesh smoothing for generating high-quality meshes. Numerical results show that the proposed algorithm is able to successfully generate high-quality meshes with no inverted elements for highly tangled meshes.
