A computer program for automatic mesh generation for the 2-D finite element program WILAX / N.A. Toews and Y.S. Yu, Mining Research Centre.M38-1/272-1973E-PDF

"This report describes a system of three computer programs (MSHGEN, MSHPLT and WXCONV), developed at the Mining Research Centre (MRC), for 'automatic' input data generation for the two-dimensional finite element program WILAX. These programs have been successfully used at MRC for the stress analysis of mining oriented problems, such as the analysis of open-pit slopes or underground openings. Meshes that formerly took several weeks of tedious work to prepare and check can now often be finished in a day or two. With some minor modifications this system can be easily adapted to most two dimensional finite element programs"--Abstract, page i.
