Abstract

- How can we generate more effcient and objectively built multiscale meshes for shallow water flow solvers? - The finite element mesh development process often is challenging and time consuming. 1. Accurate representation of boundaries while maintaining numerical stability. 2. Efficient and objective placement of resolution that does not exhaust your computing resources. - Many model developers employ the expensive but reliable place-high-resolution-everywhere approach and run with a timestep between 0.25 s and 1 s. - This is a suboptimal solution and perhaps we can place resolution only where it is necessary to produce lighter grids.
