Paramesh Description

Parallel adaptive mesh refinement for your Mac PARAMESH is a package of Fortran 90 subroutines designed to provide an application developer with an easy route to extend an existing serial code which uses a logically cartesian structured mesh into a parallel code with adaptive mesh refinement(AMR).Alternatively, in its simplest use, and with minimal effort, it can operate as a domain decomposition tool for users who want to parallelize their serial codes, but who do not wish to use adaptivity.The package builds a hierarchy of sub-grids to cover the computational domain, with spatial resolution varying to satisfy the demands of the application. These sub-grid blocks form the nodes of a tree data-structure (oct-tree in 3D OR quad-tree in 2D). Each grid block has a logically cartesian mesh. The package supports 1, 2 and 3D models.NOTE: Paramesh is released under the NASA Open Source Agreement. Here are some key features of "Paramesh": · AMR · Multidimensional · Structured Grid Blocks · Parallelized FORTRAN 90 and C · Portable · Uses MPI · User Tunable Load Balancing · Support for Conservation Laws · Distribution contains source code · Builds upon user's existing codes · User's Manual written in HTML
