Grid Generation and Adaptation by Functionals
نویسنده
چکیده
Abstract : Accuracy of a simulation is strongly depend on the grid quality. Here, quality means orthogonality at the boundaries and quasi-orthogonality within the critical regions, smoothness, bounded aspect ratios, solution adaptive behaviour, etc. We review various functionals for generating high quality structured quadrilateral meshes in two dimensional domains. Analysis of Winslow and Modified Liao functionals are presented. Numerical examples are also presented to support our theoretical analysis. We will demonstrate the use of the Area functional for generating adaptive quadrilateral meshes.

Adaptation of Structured Grid for Supersonic and Transonic Flows
Two distinct redistribution grids - adaptation techniques, spring analogy and elliptic grid generator are applied to two-dimensional steady, inviscid, shocked flows, and the ability of each technique is examined and compared. Euler equations are solved base on Roe's Reimann solver approach to simulate supersonic flow around a sphere, transonic flow about an airfoil and supersonic flow in a symm...
متن کاملAdaptive Unstructured Grid Generation Scheme for Solution of the Heat Equation
An adaptive unstructured grid generation scheme is introduced to use finite volume (FV) and finite element (FE) formulation to solve the heat equation with singular boundary conditions. Regular grids could not acheive accurate solution to this problem. The grid generation scheme uses an optimal time complexity frontal method for the automatic generation and delaunay triangulation of the grid po...
متن کاملEffects of Directional Subdividing on adaptive Grid-Embedding (RESEARCH NOTE)
The effects of using both directions and directional subdividing on adaptive gridembedding on the computational time and the number of grid points required for the same accuracy are considered. Directional subdividing is used from the beginning of the adaptation procedure without any restriction. To avoid the complication of unstructured grid, the semi-structured grid was used. It is used to so...
متن کاملSome Properties of Area Functionals in Numerical Grid Generation
In this paper we present some general properties concerning area functionals, both continuous and discrete, used in the variational approach of numerical grid generation. In particular we introduce a new proof of a theorem concerning the classical area functional which has served us as a guide in the design of new area functionals yielding better performance than the currently used. In particul...
متن کاملOn the Provably Tight Approximation of Optimal Meshing for Non-convex Regions
Automatic generation of smooth, non-overlapping meshes on arbitrary regions is the well-known problem. Considered as optimization task the problem may be reduced to finding a minimizer of the weighted combination of so-called length, area, and orthogonality functionals. Unfortunately, it has been shown that on the one hand, certain weights of the individual functionals do not admit the unique o...
