Anisotropic, adaptive meshing for flows around complex, three-dimensional bodies remains
a barrier to increased automation in computational fluid dynamics. Two specific advances …

Results presented at the Fifth Drag Prediction Workshop using CFL3D, FUN3D, and NSU3D
are described. These are calculations on the workshop-provided grids and drag-adapted …

In this paper we derive a multi-dimensional mesh adaptation method which produces
optimal meshes for quadratic functions, positive semi-definite. The method generates …

The scalable execution of parallel adaptive analyses requires the application of dynamic
load balancing to repartition the mesh into a set of parts with balanced work load and …

This paper presents ellipses as a convenient mean of representation for operating on
several tensor fields. The first part of this paper discusses the representation of tensors as …

A verification methodology for adaptive processes is devised. The mathematical claims
made during the process are identified and measures are presented in order to verify that …

A smoothing method specifically designed to treat hybrid meshes is presented in this paper.
This method, based on Riemannian metric comparison, minimizes a cost function …

Nomenclature α= Winslow coefficient β= Winslow coefficient γ= Winslow coefficient λ=
eigenvalues, inverse of principal length scales squared in Riemannian tensor Φ= physical u …

This paper presents an anisotropic mesh adaptation method applied to industrial
combustion problems. The method is based on a measure of the distance between two …

There are many ways to generate geometrical models for numerical simulation, and most of
them start with a segmentation step to extract the boundaries of the regions of interest. This …
