Topological integrity and geom etric embedding validity are carefully maintained. We apply these operator s strategically to block decompositions, so-called T-meshes or base comple xes, in the context of hexahedral mesh generation. This allows circumventi ng the expensive and unreliable global volumetric remapping step in the ve rsatile meshing pipeline based on 3D integer-grid maps. In essence, we red uce this step to simpler local cube mapping problems, for which reliable s olutions are available. As a consequence, the robustness of the mesh gener ation process is increased, especially when targeting coarse or block-stru ctured hexahedral meshes. We furthermore extend this pipeline to support f eature alignment constraints, and systematically respect these throughout, enabling the generation of meshes that align to points, curves, and surfa ces of special interest, whether on the boundary or in the interior of the domain.\n\nRegistration Category: Full Access\n\nSession Chair: Nicholas Sharp (NVIDIA) URL:https://asia.siggraph.org/2023/full-program?id=papers_695&sess=sess140 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
