Adaptive gridding in three dimensions for studying complex shock interactions
Abstract
A method for adapting a current three-dimensional algorithm to capture accurately the reflected shocks and contact discontinuities from multiple sources in complex shock interactions is presented. The method uses moving grids in many dimensions based on the concept of coarse/fine zones. A formalism is used to pass information from coarse to fine zones. This zonal approach is implemented with a differencing technique.
