Abstract

We present an adaptive moving mesh strategy endowed with a mass conservation property for the numerical solution of the two-dimensional linear transport equation. We achieve this through the solution of an auxiliary moving mesh problem driven by a gradient based monitor function. The method we propose is of staggered type, hence requires an appropriate data transfer operator over different meshes. We make use of an L 2 projection operator that requires the construction of a supermesh for evaluation. We summarise extensive numerical experiments aimed at testing the robustness of the method and its ability to approximate challenging numerical features.
