Dynamic mesh adaption on unstructured grids is a powerful tool for efficiently computing
unsteady problems to resolve solution features of interest. Unfortunately, this causes load
imbalance among processors on a parallel machine. This paper describes the parallel
implementation of a tetrahedral mesh adaption scheme and a new global load balancing
method. A huristic remapping algorithm is presented that assigns partitions to processors
such that the redistribution cost is minimized. Results indicate that the paralel performance …
