Abstract
In recent years several new moving grid methods have shown promising potential for applications in the numerical solution of time dependent differential equations. In this paper, a deformation method is reviewed and some new developments related to the method are presented. In particular, the method is applied to grid morphing and adaptive grid generation on domains with moving boundary. The method works for both structured and unstructured grid generation.
