Application of Three-Dimensional Quasi-Conformal Mappings to Grid Construction

Аннотация

Two-dimensional conformal mappings are a powerful and elegant tool for solving many mathematical and physical problems. The conformal mapping method is suitable for constructing two-dimensional grids. The quasi-conformal mappings constructed in this paper naturally generalize the application of conformal mappings to grid construction in the three-dimensional case. For a steady irrotational flow of an ideal incompressible fluid, in addition to the velocity potential, two stream functions are introduced. Generalized Cauchy–Riemann conditions from which three-dimensional quasi-conformal mappings follow are presented. The mappings constructed can be represented as a sequence of two-dimensional conformal mappings. Examples of grid construction using the theory of quasi-conformal mappings are given. The best proof of these results is their visualization.
