Introduction

AFLR2 AIM Overview

A module in the Computational Aircraft Prototype Syntheses (CAPS) has been developed to interact with the unstructured, surface grid generator AFLR2 [1] [2].

The AFLR2 AIM provides the CAPS users with the ability to generate "unstructured, 2D grids" using an "Advancing-Front/Local-Reconnection (AFLR) procedure." Both triangular and quadrilateral elements may be generated.

An outline of the AIM's inputs, outputs and attributes are provided in AIM Inputs and AIM Outputs and AIM attributes, respectively.

The complete AFLR documentation is available at the SimCenter.
