SUMMARYAn adaptive refinement/derefinement algorithm of nested meshes is presented. Some definitions are introduced. The main properties of the derefinement algorithm are remarked upon and its efficiency is shown through two numerical examples: a time-dependent convection-diffusion problem with dominant convection and a quasistationary problem.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
