Abstract:
I
will describe the approach we are taking to develop an algorithmic and software
framework for adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) in support of a diverse set of
problems in applied partial differential equations. I will first give a brief
overview of the target algorithms and applications, followed by a description
of our approach to software design. Finally, I will discuss some of the issues
we are having to address in using our tools to develop
AMR algorithms for geophysical fluid flow problems.
