Interactive Topology Generation and Grid Viewer for GridPro / az3000
Published in 1996
A powerful interactive graphical manager has been established for GridPro® / az3000, the multiblock grid generation system which is fully automatic once a grid topology is given. While the generation of grid topology represents a substantially smaller task, the next question is how fast and easily can that task be accomplished. The answer given here comes with the use of interactive graphics. The subject of this paper is even more inclusive since the integrated use of graphics is employed to manage the entire grid generation process.

Grid Generation for Aerospace Applications
Hauser J., Spel M., Muylaert J., Eiseman P.R.
Published in 1995
These lecture notes are the nonmathematical version of a general report on grid generation. These notes are the continuation of courses in grid generation that have been given at the Von Karman Institute in March, 1992, the International Space Course at the Technical University of Munich, October, 1993, and at the Istituto per Applicacione del Calculo (IAC), Rome, September, 1994.
With the advent of parallel computers, much more complex problems can be solved, provided computational grids of sufficient quality can be generated. The recent Aerothermodynamics Workshop at the European Space Agency (November 1994) has proved that grid generation is one of the pacing items in CFD.

With examples, we illustrate how implicitly specified surfaces can be used for grid generation with GridPro/az3000. The particular examples address two questions: (1) How do you model intersecting tubes with fillets? and (2) How do you generate grids inside the intersected tubes? The implication is much more general. With the results in a forthcoming paper which develops an easy-to-follow procedure for implicit surface modeling, we provide a powerful means for rapid prototyping in grid generation.

Applications of Multiblock Grid Generations with Automatic Zoning
Eiseman P.R., Cheng Z., Hauser J.
Published in 1994
This paper is centered on the applications of a new grid generation package entitled GridProTM / az3000. The effects of grid topology on various problems are shown. These have ranged from cases with only a few blocks to cases with thousands of blocks. More than five distinct CFD codes have been successfully run on the generated grids. The grids are smooth and nearly orthogonal.
