4. Summary of results#

4.1. Adaptation No. 1#

The transition from the initial mesh to mesh No. 1 is obtained by systematically cutting out all the triangles on the internal faces of the pipes. It can be seen that the support for these internal faces remains cylindrical.

4.2. Adaptation No. 2#

The transition from mesh No. 1 to mesh No. 2 is obtained by systematically cutting out all the triangles on the external faces of the pipes. It can be seen that the support for these external faces remains cylindrical.

4.3. Adaptations No. 3 and No. 4#

The transition from mesh No. 2 to mesh No. 3, then from mesh No. 3 to mesh No. 4, is obtained by systematically cutting all the segments of the lines of the intersection between the 2 pipes. The refinement of the description of the intersection is increasing.
