I think it would be interesting to do fully coupled simulations with model equations of varying dimension. E.g. do Navier-Stokes in a 3D part of the domain coupled to depth-averaged shallow water in a 2D part. Structures type people seem to like being able to mix beam shell and brick elements, too. --- Roy ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure contains a definitive record of customers, application performance, security threats, fraudulent activity and more.
