Abstract
In the 90’s, nonlinear CFD methods must begin to routinely simulate viscous unsteady flow of complete aircraft configurations. While the best approach for such simulations has yet to be determined, it is argued that the discretization requirements for unsteady viscous flow simulation of complex configurations will best be satisfied using either composite overset structured grids or a composite of prismatic and unstructured meshes — or a hybrid of these two.
