FINITE ELEMENT MESH DESIGN 
(LAI et al. - CAD/CAM Center/Maribor University)

Given a geometric structure and loadings/boundary conditions
Find an appropriate resolution for a finite element mesh

Examples: ten structures with appropriate meshes (cca. 650 edges)

Background knowledge: properties of edges and
relations between edges (neighbor, opposite)

ILP systems applied: GOLEM, CLAUDIEN

Many interesting rules discovered (according to expert evaluation)

Construction of expert system based on ILP-derived rules under way
