Improved Blending-Function Algebraic Generation Of Grids

Abstract

Method of algebraic generation of grids used in computing flows incorporates blending-function techniques to obtain high degree of orthogonality of each grid on its bounding surfaces and to blend grid smoothly, making it conform to all boundaries. Demonstrated in two dimensions, and applied in continuing development of software for real-time interactive generation of three-dimensional grids with color graphical displays. Software used routinely in generating grids for computing flows of practical interest.
