These weird shapes can be understood in terms of three-dimensional polyhedrons whose faces are glued together to create finite, multiply connected spaces.
Papers on two-dimensional algorithms address such topics as elliptic barrier-type grid generators for problems with moving boundaries, a class of quasi-isometric grids, triangle distortions under quasi-isometries, grid optimization and adaptation, moving mesh calculations in unsteady two-dimensional problems, generation of curvilinear grids in multiply connected domains of complex topology.
