Space Adaptive Methods/Meshing

This chapter describes space adaptive approaches developed by six TILDA partners for the application in scale-resolving simulations. They are designed to provide sufficient spatial resolution in regions where required and to allow a lower resolution elsewhere for efficiency reasons. Adaptation techniques considered include mesh (h-refinement), order refinement of the spatial discretization (p-refinement) or a combination of both (hp-refinement). Furthermore, near-wall local mesh refinement, refinement using feature-based indicators and indicators obtained from the Variational Multiscale Method are considered.
