Abstract

Parallel block-based adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) finite-volume methods have been developed previously using body-fitted multi-block meshes for flows involving a wide range of complicated physical and chemical phenomena, as well as complex flow geometries, by Groth and co-researchers [1-4], amongst others. Despite the success of this previous research, one major limitation of these isotropic AMR techniques has been the efficient and accurate treatment of multi-scale anisotropic physics. Recently, Zhang and Groth [5] proposed a treatment that addresses this challenge by considering a parallel anisotropic block-based AMR method for solutions of a model linear advection-diffusion equation as well as the fully non-linear Euler equations governing two-dimensional inviscid, compressible, gaseous flows.
