Introduction High-order mesh curving is an emerging technology that will greatly benefit those that utilize finite-element methods (FEM) within the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) solver community. Finite-element techniques offer increased accuracy with lower element counts over traditional CFD methods such as finite-volume and finite-difference methods. The increased accuracy is achieved by introducing additional vertices (new degrees of freedom) to edges, faces, and interiors of linear elements....

It’s no secret that the automotive industry is constantly evolving. From the newest models to the latest technology, there’s always something exciting happening in this area. One of the most interesting developments in recent years has been the use of simulation technology to design and test vehicles for improved fuel economy and vehicle aerodynamics. Moreover, especially with fuel efficiency standards such as the CAFE targets...
