Book Adaptive Mesh Refinement   Theory and Applications

Download or read book Adaptive Mesh Refinement Theory and Applications written by Tomasz Plewa and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2004-12-08 with total page 582 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advanced numerical simulations that use adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) methods have now become routine in engineering and science. Originally developed for computational fluid dynamics applications these methods have propagated to fields as diverse as astrophysics, climate modeling, combustion, biophysics and many others. The underlying physical models and equations used in these disciplines are rather different, yet algorithmic and implementation issues facing practitioners are often remarkably similar. Unfortunately, there has been little effort to review the advances and outstanding issues of adaptive mesh refinement methods across such a variety of fields. This book attempts to bridge this gap. The book presents a collection of papers by experts in the field of AMR who analyze past advances in the field and evaluate the current state of adaptive mesh refinement methods in scientific computing.

Book Mesh Adaption Strategies for Vortex dominated Flows

Download or read book Mesh Adaption Strategies for Vortex dominated Flows written by Sean Javad Kamkar and published by Stanford University. This book was released on 2011 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new adaptive mesh refinement strategy that is based on a coupled feature-detection and error-estimation approach is developed. The overall goal is to apply the proper degree of refinement to key vortical features in aircraft and rotorcraft wakes. The refinement paradigm is based on a two-stage process wherein the vortical regions are initially identified for refinement using feature-detection, and then the appropriate resolution is determined by the local solution error. The feature-detection scheme uses a local normalization procedure that allows it to automatically identify regions for refinement with threshold values that are not dependent upon the convective scales of the problem. An error estimator, based on the Richardson Extrapolation method, then supplies the identified features with appropriate levels of refinement. The estimator is shown to be well-behaved for steady-state and time-accurate aerodynamic flows. The above strategy is implemented within the Helios code, which features a dual-mesh paradigm of unstructured grids in the near-body domain, and adaptive Cartesian grids in the off-body domain. A main objective of this work is to control the adaption process so that high fidelity wake resolution is obtained in the off-body domain. The approach is tested on several theoretical and practical vortex-dominated flow-fields in an attempt to resolve wingtip vortices and rotor wakes. Accuracy improvements to rotorcraft performance metrics and increased wake resolution are simultaneously documented.

Book Adaptive Local Grid Refinement in Computational Fluid Mechanics

Download or read book Adaptive Local Grid Refinement in Computational Fluid Mechanics written by Richard E. Ewing and published by . This book was released on 1987 with total page 19 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Several promising new techniques for efficient and accurate numerical solution of large-scale fluid flow problems have been developed. These methods include self-adaptive mesh modification techniques for applications requiring front-tracking and local grid refinement as well as new preconditioning ideas for efficient implementation. Properties of systems of hyperbolic conservation laws have been obtained which will aid in development of accurate front-tracking algorithms. Adaptive grid refinement techniques developed include moving grid methods, local, fixed refinement involving linked-list data structures, and certain local patch refinement ideas which have great potential for ease of implementation in existing large scale codes. Domain decomposition concepts for obtaining efficient preconditioners for iterative techniques have proved quite useful both for local patch refinement and for the solution of problems with rapidly varying coefficients. The fast adaptive algorithms being developed have high potential for both parallelization and vectorization. The algorithms have been designed to take advantage of the emerging parallel and vector-oriented computer architectures. Finally, the incorporation of these fast algorithms in accurate finite element, collocation, and finite difference methods is underway.

Book Mesh Generation and Adaptation

Download or read book Mesh Generation and Adaptation written by Rubén Sevilla and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-05-18 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The developments in mesh generation are usually driven by the needs of new applications and/or novel algorithms. The last decade has seen a renewed interest in mesh generation and adaptation by the computational engineering community, due to the challenges introduced by complex industrial problems.Another common challenge is the need to handle complex geometries. Nowadays, it is becoming obvious that geometry should be persistent throughout the whole simulation process. Several methodologies that can carry the geometric information throughout the simulation stage are available, but due to the novelty of these methods, the generation of suitable meshes for these techniques is still the main obstacle for the industrial uptake of this technology.This book will cover different aspects of mesh generation and adaptation, with particular emphasis on cutting-edge mesh generation techniques for advanced discretisation methods and complex geometries.

Book Adaptive Mesh Refinement Method for CFD Applications

Download or read book Adaptive Mesh Refinement Method for CFD Applications written by Oscar Luis Antepara Zambrano and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main objective of this thesis is the development of an adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) algorithm for computational fluid dynamics simulations using hexahedral and tetrahedral meshes. This numerical methodology is applied in the context of large-eddy simulations (LES) of turbulent flows and direct numerical simulations (DNS) of interfacial flows, to bring new numerical research and physical insight. For the fluid dynamics simulations, the governing equations, the spatial discretization on unstructured grids and the numerical schemes for solving Navier-Stokes equations are presented. The equations follow a discretization by conservative finite-volume on collocated meshes. For the turbulent flows formulation, the spatial discretization preserves symmetry properties of the continuous differential operators and the time integration follows a self-adaptive strategy, which has been well tested on unstructured grids. Moreover, LES model consisting of a wall adapting local-eddy-viscosity within a variational multi-scale formulation is used for the applications showed in this thesis. For the two-phase flow formulation, a conservative level-set method is applied for capturing the interface between two fluids and is implemented with a variable density projection scheme to simulate incompressible two-phase flows on unstructured meshes. The AMR algorithm developed in this thesis is based on a quad/octree data structure and keeps a relation of 1:2 between levels of refinement. In the case of tetrahedral meshes, a geometrical criterion is followed to keep the quality metric of the mesh on a reasonable basis. The parallelization strategy consists mainly in the creation of mesh elements in each sub-domain and establishes a unique global identification number, to avoid duplicate elements. Load balance is assured at each AMR iteration to keep the parallel performance of the CFD code. Moreover, a mesh multiplication algorithm (02) is reported to create large meshes, with different kind of mesh elements, but preserving the topology from a coarser original mesh. This thesis focuses on the study of turbulent flows and two-phase flows using an AMR framework. The cases studied for LES of turbulent flows applications are the flow around one and two separated square cylinders, and the flow around a simplified car model. In this context, a physics-based refinement criterion is developed, consisting of the residual velocity calculated from a multi-scale decomposition of the instantaneous velocity. This criteria ensures grid adaptation following the main vortical structures and giving enough mesh resolution on the zones of interest, i.e., flow separation, turbulent wakes, and vortex shedding. The cases studied for the two-phase flows are the DNS of 2D and 3D gravity-driven bubble, with a particular focus on the wobbling regime. A study of rising bubbles in the wobbling regime and the effect of dimensionless numbers on the dynamic behavior of the bubbles are presented. Moreover, the use of tetrahedral AMR is applied for the numerical simulation of gravity-driven bubbles in complex domains. On this topic, the methodology is validated on bubbles rising in cylindrical channels with different topology, where the study of these cases contributed to having new numerical research and physical insight in the development of a rising bubble with wall effects.
