Remapping of Data Between One-Dimensional Meshes

Abstract

In this report we present two approaches to data remapping between one-dimensional meshes implemented with the c++ programming language. Our goal was to test the performance of two search algorithms, linear and binary, and verify the accuracy of our implementations of the two methods. We first introduce the concept of data remap and meshing components, as well as their various uses. We then delve into the differences between point-wise and conservative remap, the algorithms used in the implementations, and lastly confirm the implementations work as intended when given various inputs. We expect that, after profiling, the binary search algorithm will be more efficient than the linear algorithm for sorted sets of data, the point-wise remap implementation to accurately approximate the data transfer between two meshes, and the conservative remap implementation to conserve the area underneath the curve of two distinct meshes.
