Abstract

The efficient representation and handling of complicated geometries is one of the main challenges of today’s numerical simulation. In the area of computational fluid dynamics, e.g., geometry plays a more and more predominant part. Especially for problems with moving interfaces, when we think of the cost of a successive remeshing in a finite element context, e. g., those geometric aspects seem to be at least as important as the construction of appropriate discretization schemes and solvers.
