PMESH - A Massively Parallel Mesh Generator

abstract

The Parallel Mesh Generation (PMESH) Project is an LLNL effort to develop a
unique mesh generation system that can construct large calculational meshes
(of up to 10**9 elements) on massively parallel processors (MPPs). Such a
capability will remove a critical roadblock to unleashing the power of MPPs
for physical analysis. PMESH will support a variety of LLNL 3-D physics
codes in the areas of electromagnetics, structural mechanics, thermal analysis,
and hydrodynamics.
