Robust Three-Dimensional Level-Set Method for Evolving Fronts on Complex Unstructured Meshes

Procedure 1

Search nearest point to on .
Input: ,
1: Cell set
2: Vertex set
3: if , then
4:   is not adjacent to the level set. Quit procedure and launch edge-based approach.
5: end if
6: for all Cells do
7:  Find the line segment (2D) or facet (3D) in belonging to via linear interpolation.
8:  Record the minimum distance and corresponding nearest point
9: end for
10: if that then
11:  Add neighboring vertices of to
12:  Repeat step 6 - 11 until step 10 returns false.
13: end if
14: return ,
