Fig. 13From: Finite cell method for functionally graded materials based on V-models and homogenized microstructuresDiscretizations of a the discontinuous tile: The mesh is refined twice around the coupling surface (yellow), which divides the upper (light blue) and lower domain (purple). b The \(C^0-\)continuous tile: The FCM mesh is refined once in the transition zone (cells in blue are unrefined, and cells in red are refined once). The grey mesh in the background corresponds to the octree for the integration. The \(C^1-\)continuous tile is meshed and refined analogouslyBack to article page
