CubismAMR -- A C++ library for Distributed Block-Structured Adaptive Mesh Refinement

Abstract: We present CubismAMR, a C++ library for distributed simulations with block-structured grids and Adaptive Mesh Refinement. A numerical method to solve the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations is proposed, that comes with a novel approach of solving the pressure Poisson equation on an adaptively refined grid. Validation and verification results for the method are presented, for the flow past an impulsively started cylinder.
