Abstract
Two new ideas for anisotropic adaptation of unstructured triangular grids are presented with particular emphasis to fluid flows computations. The first concept enables a suitable extension of our mesh adaptation to the case of systems of PDE like Navier-Stokes equations and the second makes possible a correct boundary layer computation which was until now one of the major weakness of anisotropic adaptations in CFD.
