This is the final report of a three-year, Laboratory Directed Research and Development (LDRD) project at the Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL). The project objective was to develop and disseminate adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) algorithms for structured and unstructured meshes. Development of ARM algorithms will continue along several directions. These directions include algorithms for parallel architectures, techniques for the solution of partial differential equations on adaptive meshes, mesh generation, and algorithms for nontraditional or generic applications of AMR. Dissemination of AMR algorithms is also a goal of the project. AMR algorithms are perceived as difficult to meld to current algorithms. The authors are developing tools that diminish this perception and allow more computational scientists to use AMR within their own work.
