Abstract: The presented article contains a 2D mesh generation routine optimized with the Metropolis algorithm. The procedure enables to produce meshes with a prescribed size h of elements. These finite element meshes can serve as standard discrete patterns for the Finite Element Method (FEM). Appropriate meshes together with the FEM approach constitute an effective tool to deal with differential problems. Thus, having them both one can solve the 2D Poisson problem. It can be done for different domains being either of a regular (circle, square) or of a non--regular type. The proposed routine is even capable to deal with non--convex shapes.
