AbstractIn this paper, a method to generate large unstructured meshes on parallel computers is demonstrated. Using the Message Passing Interface, a coarse-grained parallel harness has been developed, that allows the use of sequential generators in a parallel environment. Meshes of over 500 million elements will be shown.
