Development of Elliptic and Hyperbolic Grid Generation

It has been found that partial differential equations (PDE's) could be used to efficiently generate high quality structured grids. The grid discretizes the physical domain to computational domain, typically an array data structure in Fortran. This study concentrates on elliptic and hyperbolic m...

description It has been found that partial differential equations (PDE's) could be used to efficiently generate high quality structured grids.

The elliptic method uses the Laplace equations to transfonn the physical domain to computational domain and finite difference to generate the grids.
