Mesh adaptation based on error estimation has become a key technique to improve th eaccuracy o fcomputational-fluid-dynamics computations. The adjoint-based approach for error estimation is one of the most promising techniques for computational-fluid-dynamics applications. Nevertheless, the level of implementation of this technique in the aeronautical industrial environment is still low because it is a computationally expensive method. In the present investigation, a new mesh refinement method based on estimation of truncation error is presented in the context of finite-volume discretization. The estimation method uses auxiliary coarser meshes to estimate the local truncation error, which can be used for driving an adaptation algorithm. The method is demonstrated in the context of two-dimensional NACA0012 and three-dimensional ONERA M6 wing inviscid flows, and the results are compared against the adjoint-based approach and physical sensors based on features of the flow field.

An automatic Mesh Generation Preprocessor for BE Programs with a considerable of capabilities has been developed. This program allows almost any kind of geometry and tipology to be defined with a small amount of external data, and with an important approximation of the boundary geometry. Also the error checking possibility is very important for a fast comprobation of the results.

Finite element hp-adaptivity is a technology that allows for very accurate numerical solutions. When applied to open region problems such as radar cross section prediction or antenna analysis, a mesh truncation method needs to be used. This paper compares the following mesh truncation methods in the context of hp-adaptive methods: Infinite Elements, Perfectly Matched Layers and an iterative boundary element based methodology. These methods have been selected because they are exact at the continuous level (a desirable feature required by the extreme accuracy delivered by the hp-adaptive strategy) and they are easy to integrate with the logic of hp-adaptivity. The comparison is mainly based on the number of degrees of freedom needed for each method to achieve a given level of accuracy. Computational times are also included. Two-dimensional examples are used, but the conclusions directly extrapolated to the three dimensional case.

A simplified CFD wake model based on the actuator disk concept is used to simulate the wind turbine, represented by a disk upon which a distribution of forces, defined as axial momentum sources, are applied on the incoming non-uniform flow. The rotor is supposed to be uniformly loaded, with the exerted forces function of the incident wind speed, the thrust coefficient and the rotor diameter. The model is tested under different parameterizations of turbulence models and validated through experimental measurements downwind of a wind turbine in terms of wind speed deficit and turbulence intensity.

Applications that operate on meshes are very popular in High Performance Computing (HPC) environments. In the past, many techniques have been developed in order to optimize the memory accesses for these datasets. Different loop transformations and domain decompositions are com- monly used for structured meshes. However, unstructured grids are more challenging. The memory accesses, based on the mesh connectivity, do not map well to the usual lin- ear memory model. This work presents a method to improve the memory performance which is suitable for HPC codes that operate on meshes. We develop a method to adjust the sequence in which the data are used inside the algorithm, by means of traversing and sorting the mesh. This sorted mesh can be transferred sequentially to the lower memory levels and allows for minimum data transfer requirements. The method also reduces the lower memory requirements dra- matically: up to 63% of the L1 cache misses are removed in a traditional cache system. We have obtained speedups of up to 2.58 on memory operations as measured in a general- purpose CPU. An improvement is also observed with se- quential access memories, where we have observed reduc- tions of up to 99% in the required low-level memory size.

The solution to the problem of finding the optimum mesh design in the finite element method with the restriction of a given number of degrees of freedom, is an interesting problem, particularly in the applications method. At present, the usual procedures introduce new degrees of freedom (remeshing) in a given mesh in order to obtain a more adequate one, from the point of view of the calculation results (errors uniformity). However, from the solution of the optimum mesh problem with a specific number of degrees of freedom some useful recommendations and criteria for the mesh construction may be drawn. For 1-D problems, namely for the simple truss and beam elements, analytical solutions have been found and they are given in this paper. For the more complex 2-D problems (plane stress and plane strain) numerical methods to obtain the optimum mesh, based on optimization procedures have to be used. The objective function, used in the minimization process, has been the total potential energy. Some examples are presented. Finally some conclusions and hints about the possible new developments of these techniques are also given.

El principal objetivo de la presente tesis es el de desarrollar y probar un código capaz de resolver las ecuaciones de Maxwell en el dominio del tiempo con Malla Refinada Adaptativa (AMR por sus siglas en inglés). AMR es una técnica de cálculo basada en dividir el dominio físico del problema en distintas mallas rectangulares paralelas a las direcciones cartesianas. Cada una de las mallas tendrá distinta resolución y aquellas con mayor resolución se sitúan allí dónde las ondas electromagnéticas se propagan o interaccionan con los materiales, es decir, dónde mayor precisión es requerida. Como las ondas van desplazándose por todo el dominio, las mayas deberán seguirlas. El principal problema al utilizar esta metodología se puede encontrar en las fronteras internas, dónde las distintas mallas se unen. Ya que el método más corrientemente utilizado para resolver las ecuaciones de Maxwell es el de las diferencias finitas en el dominio del tiempo (FDTD por sus siglas en inglés) , el trabajo comenzó tratando de adaptar AMR a FDTD. Tras descubrirse que esta interacción resultaba en problemas de inestabilidades en las fronteras internas antes citadas, se decidió cambiar a un método basado en volúmenes finitos en el dominio del tiempo (FVTD por sus siglas en inglés). Este se basa en considerar la forma en ecuaciones de conservación de las ecuaciones de Maxwell y aplicar a su resolución un esquema de Godunov. Se ha probado que es clave para el correcto funcionamiento del código la elección de un limitador de flujo que proteja los extremos de la onda de la disipación típica de los métodos de este tipo. Otro problema clásico a la hora de resolver las ecuaciones de Maxwell es el de tratar con las condiciones de frontera física cuando se simulan dominios no acotados, es decir, dónde las ondas deben salir del sistema sin producir ninguna reflexión. Normalmente la solución es la de disponer una banda absorbente en las fronteras físicas. En AMREM se ha desarrollado un nuevo método basado en los campos característicos que con menor requisito de CPU funcina suficientemente bien incluso en los casos más desfaborables. El código ha sido contrastado con soluciones analíticas de diferentes problemas y también su velocidad ha sido comparada con la de Meep, uno de los programas más conocidos del ámbito. También algunas aplicaciones han sido simuladas con el fin de demostrar el amplio espectro de campos en los que AMREM puede funcionar como una útil herramienta.
