Abstract

In numerical calculations based on partial differential equations the kind of discretization, in particular the kind of mesh that can be used is of atmost importance. Unfortunately, meshing is a rather unsolved discipline, especially in three dimensions. Although some occasional solutions exists there is hardly a tool that has integrated possibilities to handle this problem. This paper presents a numerical method for adaptive mesh relaxation, applicable in three dimensions, where with little effort a big benefit can be reached by adaptive mesh relaxation for a numerical simulation.
