3D Composite Grids Using Bezier Curves and Surfaces in Component Adaptive Methods

Abstract

We discuss the use of component adaptive methods for the solution of time-dependent partial differential equations on complex geometries. After a brief exposition of the system and language requirements for an efficient use of these methods, we describe a grid generation procedure M*E*S*H, built upon Bezier constructs, coupled with a graphical editor VOUS to serve as a visualization platform, and a programming language Vorpal designed to facilitate their implementation. We also discuss the interaction of the various components of our system and their interfaces.
