! Purpose of Grid Generation
Divide volume of space surrounding complex geometries into a very large number of small volumes in which physical laws are modeled
! Method of Grid Generation Investigated
Parallel Hierarchical Unstructured Cartesian Mesh Generation (P-HUGG grid generation software system)
! Research Needs
Effective dynamic solution-adaptive grid generation algorithm
Adaptive grid refinement capability, to resolve complex geometries and evolving multiple-scale localized solution physics
Scalable parallel method for generating and partitioning large-scale grids

! Develop Enhanced Grid Generation Capabilities
Isotropic and anisotropic grid refinement for dynamic adaptationto evolving solutions
Optimization-based and linear-elastic smoothing for quality in dynamically adapting grids
Parallel capability for inserting very thin, surface conforming local grid refinement necessary for high resolution of viscous flow physics
! Evaluate New Capabilities
Primary Test Application - Dynamic adaptive grids for surface-ship maneuvering and sea-keeping in high sea states
