In the context of scientific computing, the mesh is used as a discrete support for the
considered numerical methods. As a consequence, the mesh greatly impacts the efficiency …

There has been an intensive international effort to develop high-order Computational Fluid
Dynamics (CFD) methods into design tools in aerospace engineering during the last one …

Most forecasts predict an annual airline traffic growth rate between 4.5 and 5% in the
foreseeable future. To sustain that growth, the environmental impact of aircraft cannot be …

We first describe the well-established unstructured mesh generation methods as involved in
the computational pipeline, from geometry definition to surface and volume mesh …

This paper studies if adaptive grid refinement combined with finite-volume simulation of the
incompressible RANS equations can be used to obtain grid-independent solutions of …

Mesh quality is critical for the numerical accuracy of CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics).
Although various techniques have been developed to improve mesh applicability to complex …

In this work we propose and investigate the performance of a metric-based refinement
criteria for adaptive meshing used for improving the numerical solution of an elliptic problem …

We present a goal-oriented error analysis for the calculation of low Reynolds steady
compressible flows with anisotropic mesh adaptation. The error analysis is of a priori type. Its …

This paper presents a method for gradient-based shape optimization using unsteady models
of turbulent flowfields, for which forward simulations are already expensive and adjoint …

A method for finding a nearly optimal computational grid or, more generally, filter-width
distribution for a large eddy simulation is proposed and assessed. The core idea is that the …
