Results

Evaluation results on unstructured grid generation. CDT3D is compared with state-of-the-art technology AFLR v16.9.19. CDT3D’s runs are performed with 1 and 12 hardware cores. AFLR is a sequential code. This table lists the parameters of the evaluation. The sliver elements have a dihedral angle smaller than 2° or larger than 178°. The initial grid includes Delaunay tetrahedralization and Boundary Recovery. The I/O time is not included. The experiments were performed on a Dell workstation with Linux Ubuntu 12.10, using a 12-core Intel Xeon CPU X5690@3.47 GHz, and 96 GB RAM.

The included sorting time is reported in parenthesis. The sliver elements have a dihedral angle smaller than 2◦ or larger than 178◦. #Iter is the number of grid generation passes. The experiments performed on a DELL workstation with Linux Red Hat Enterprise, 24 hardware cores Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2697v2@2.70 GHz, and 757 GB RAM. Hyper-Threading is enabled when nthreads > 24.
