An Implementation Of The Solution-Adaptive-Grid Method

NASA technical memorandum discusses solution-adaptive-grid method and Self Adaptive Grid Evolution (SAGE) computer code, which implements method. Provides for redistribution of points in grids used to compute flows, especially supersonic and hypersonic flows containing shocks, and other strong gradient regions, discontinuities, and sheer layers. Performed on basis of flow solution obtained on initial grid, then flow recomputed on adapted grid.
