New paper on sliding geometries in Journal of Computational Physics

10 January 2025 paper

Simulating parts that rotate or translate, such as rotors and pressure cascades, means moving the mesh and bridging the non-conformal interface between the static and moving regions without losing accuracy. In a new paper in Journal of Computational Physics, M. Lahooti, E. Laughton, J. Ye, C. D. Cantwell and D. Moxey apply a point-to-point interpolation technique within the high-order discontinuous Galerkin method, which can handle interfaces that are difficult for other interpolation approaches.
