A New Re-redistribution Scheme for Weighted State Redistribution with Adaptive Mesh Refinement (2309.06372v1)

Abstract: State redistribution (SRD) is a recently developed technique for stabilizing cut cells that result from finite-volume embedded boundary methods. SRD has been successfully applied to a variety of compressible and incompressible flow problems. When used in conjunction with adaptive mesh refinement (AMR), additional steps are needed to preserve the accuracy and conservation properties of the solution if the embedded boundary is not restricted to a single level of the mesh hierarchy. In this work, we extend the weighted state redistribution algorithm to cases where cut cells live at or near a coarse-fine interface within the domain. The resulting algorithm maintains conservation and is demonstrated on several two- and three-dimensional example problems.
