More descriptive subject please ? There are ways to "regularise" grids. But when you say irregular/regular, what do you mean exactly ?

I mean I have irregular grid but I want to convert the grid into regular one.

1) You have a non-uniform grid which you want to map to a uniform grid. 2) You have a non-uniform grid which you want to smoothen (regularise). 3) You have an unstructured grid which you want to map to a uniform grid. 4) You have a BAD grid (bad angles, skewed cells, non-orthogonality) which you want to correct. 5) You just have an arbitrary distribution of nodes and you want to do something with that, maybe triangulate it.

Let (a,b) be the transformed coordinates and let da, db be the constant grid spacing in the computational plane. Mapping the grid is trivial
a(i,j) = i*da b(i,j) = j*db Now you want to solve your pde on the transformed plane. So you must first transform your pde e.g., df/dx = (df/da)(da/dx) + (df/db)(db/dx) Next you must approximate (da/dx), (db/dx), ...... using finite differences (since you do not have exact transformation relations). It is easier to calculate (dx/da), ........ rather than the above quantities. For example (dx/da)_(i,j) = [ x(i+1,j) - x(i-1,j) ]/da Using these and some more formulae which you can find in a cfd book you can estimate the required transformation coefficients. |
