A New Method for the Accurate Calculation of Derivatives at Structured Multiblock Grid Singularities
The new Structured Mapping At Reduced dimension Topology elements (SMART) method for the accurate calculation of derivatives at multiblock structured grid block interfaces is presented. In the SMART method, a ’local’ curvilinear mapping is defined at each interface point, giving a consistent multidimensional definition of the derivatives. The resulting system of equations is overdetermined, and a least squares method is used to determine the value of the derivatives in the local coordinate system. In the special case of a nonsingular interface point, the SMART method automatically recovers the spatial differencing stencils used at the interior points in the neighboring grid blocks.
