  abstract =     "Input preprocessors have come to be recognized as
                 important components of modern finite element programs.
                 A method is described which utilizes interactive
                 computer graphics digitizing techniques to create a
                 powerful input preprocessor for finite element
                 analysis. A limited number of general mesh generators
                 based on linear blending functions permit the program
                 to handle virtually all two-dimensional topologies. The
                 processes of geometric input and specification of
                 problem-specific ``attributes'' have been kept separate
                 so that the mesh generation routines may be used with a
                 variety of analysis programs. Graphical editors have
                 been implemented to specify attributes for structural
                 mechanics problems. Although this type of graphical
                 preprocessor shows considerable promise for
                 applications in three dimensions, there are still
                 unresolved problems in the areas of geometrical
                 description, perception, and interactive hardware.",
