Developing an Extended IFC Data Schema and Mesh Generation Framework for Finite Element Modeling

Mesh generation plays an important role in determining the result quality of finite element modeling and structural analysis. Building information modeling provides the geometry and semantic information of a building, which can be utilized to support an efficient mesh generation. In this paper, a me...
