Abstract
This paper examines the application of neural networks to
the partitioning of unstructured adaptive meshes for parallel
explicit time-stepping finite element analysis. The use
of Mean Field Annealing (MFA) technique, which is based
on the Mean Field Theory (MFT), for finding approximate
solutions to the partitioning of the finite element meshes
is investigated. The partitioning is based on the recursive
bisection approach. The method of mapping the mesh bisection
problem onto the neural network, the solution quality
and the convergence times are presented. All computational
studies were carried out using a single T800 transputer.
