  • Curved Hexahedral Block Structure Generation by Advancing Front

    SIAM International Meshing Roundtable Workshop 2024 (SIAM IMR 2024), Baltimore, Maryland, USA.

    Authors: Claire Roche, Jérôme Breil, Simon Calderan, Thierry Hocquellet, Franck Ledoux

    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...
  • Mixed-Order Meshes through rp-adaptivity for Surface Fitting to Implicit Geometries

    SIAM International Meshing Roundtable Workshop 2024 (SIAM IMR 2024), Baltimore, Maryland, USA.

    Authors: Ketan Mittal, Veselin A. Dobrev, Patrick Knupp, Tzanio Kolev, Franck Ledoux, Claire Roche, Vladimir Z. Tomov

    Computational analysis with the finite element method requires geometrically accurate meshes. It is well known that high-order meshes can accurately capture curved surfaces with fewer degrees of...
