    The authors describe a mesh generator for constructing unstructured tetrahedral triangulations. The generation algorithm makes use of local optimization operations. Special 3D metric fields are introduced to construct anisotropic triangulations and triangulations of domains consisting of several subdomains. In the case of meshing thin and curved geometries a metric field that detects the local anisotropy of the geometry is generated automatically. In the case of several subdomains the most mesh generators produce for each subdomain a mesh separately. In contrast to this approach the presented mesh generator produces a single mesh which captures the interface between the subdomains. The mesh generation is based on a multidomain metric field which is generated by using a presence function for each subdomain. Some applications of the presented mesh generation algorithm are shown.
