Hexahedral Curved Block-Structured Mesh Generation for Atmospheric Re-Entry
Thesis ·Numerical simulation codes in fluid mechanics fall into two main classes. The two classes correspond to the type of mesh used for simulations, structured meshes and unstructured meshes. These two types of mesh each have advantages and disadvantages. Structured hexahedral meshes are equivalent to regular grids. In this case, numerous calculation optimizations are possible, for example it...Curved Hexahedral Block Structure Generation by Advancing Front

This work aims to provide a method to generate block-structured meshes suitable for Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations of flows around vehicles during atmospheric re-entry. This method takes as input a tetrahedral mesh...
