description | Anisotropic mesh adaptation is important for accurately simulating physical phenomena at reasonable computational costs. Previous work in anisotropic mesh adaptation has been restricted to studies in two- or three-dimensional computational domains. However, in order to accurately simulate time-dependent physical phenomena in three dimensions, a four-dimensional mesh adaptation tool is needed. This work develops a four-dimensional anisotropic mesh adaptation tool to support time-dependent three-dimensional numerical simulations. Anisotropy is achieved through the use of a background metric field and the mesh is adapted using a dimension-independent cavity framework. Metric-conformity – in the sense of edge lengths, element quality and element counts – is effectively demonstrated on four-dimensional benchmark cases within a unit tesseract in which the background metric is prescribed analytically. Next, the metric field is optimized to minimize the approximation error of a scalar function with discontinuous Galerkin discretizations on four-dimensional domains. We demonstrate that this four-dimensional mesh adaptation algorithm achieves optimal element sizes and orientations. To our knowledge, this is the first presentation of anisotropic four-dimensional meshes.
