A simple method to automatically update the finite element mesh of the analysis domain is proposed. The method considers the mesh as a fictitious elastic body subjected to prescribed displacements at selected boundary points. The mechanical properties of each mesh element are appropriately selected in order to minimize the deformation and the distortion of the mesh elements. Different selection strategies have been used and compared in their application to simple examples. The method avoids the use of remeshing in the solution of shape optimization problems and reduces the number of remeshing steps in the solution of coupled fluid–structure interaction problems.
