Abstract
An algorithm is presented which generates a triangular
mesh to approximate an equi-potential surface. The algorithm is
adaptive in the sense that the lengths of the sides of the triangles
in the mesh vary with the local curvature of the underlying surface.
A quantitative analysis of the accuracy of the algorithm is given
along with an empirical comparison with earlier algorithms.
