A grid generation module


Example of Cartesian overset mesh automatically generated around a helicopter rotor, fuselage and strut.


Example of an octree mesh generated around a helicopter fuselage and strut.

Generator module provides functions to generate basic grids, such as Cartesian grids, cylindrical grids, … It also provides basic grid generation functions such as transfinite interpolation, remapping, hole filling algorithms... More advanced features, such as automatic overset Cartesian grids generation [Fig] or octree mesh generation [Fig] are also available in this module.
