List of research projects
Research projets have been classified into three categories related to adaptive meshing techniques, innovative numerical methods and scientific visualisation.A. Mesh generation and adaptation.
A1. Mesh adaptation for an Arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian (ALE) method.
R. Abgrall, C. Dobrzynski, P.H. Maire (Bordeaux I)
The physical model that will be considered throughtout this study is based on the equations of fluid dynamics. More specifically, we will be concerned by the simulation of multimaterial compressible fluid flows, such as those encountered in the domain of Inertial Confinement Fusion (ICF). Read More...

A2. Local Topological Modification of Hexahedral Meshes Using Dual-Based Operations.
T. Tautges (Argonne Natl. Lab.)
Local topological modification is widely used to improve mesh quality after automatic generation of tetrahedral and quadrilateral meshes. These same techniques are also used to support adaptive refinement of these meshes. Read More...

A4. DEFORMA: High deformation and mesh reconnection.
B. Després, S. Del Pino (CEA-DAM DIF)
High deformation flows may generate pathological meshes. This is particularly true in the Lagrangian context. So one needs specific algorithms, to reconnect the mesh lines for example. Read More...

A5. Geometry correction
G. Alleon (EADS, Toulouse)
Industrial CAD models often contains patterns which make them difficult to use for numerical computation (i.e. difficult to mesh). The goal of this project is to provide jCAE based tools to remove some of such elements. Read More...

A6. Co-refinement of fault surfaces
P. Havé, A. Benali, L. Agelas (IFP)
Modern geologic simulations on complex geometries require specific modeling tools for the accurate representations of heterogeneous components. The associated meshes evolve according to a displacement field provided by a geologist, which must preserve the initial heterogeneity distribution. Read More...

C2. Large mesh decimation and visualisation
G. Alleon (EADS, Toulouse)
jCAE include a still very prototypical large mesh viewer. This viewer is based on an out-of-core octree. One limitation is that it currently rely on the geometry for far viewing. In many case the geometry used to do the mesh is not available. The goal of this project is to create a multi-level representation of the mesh for far and mid distance view, using decimation.
