On the Potential Impact of Curved Meshing for Higher-order Adaptive Mesh Simulations

Higher order, adaptive finite element methods have demonstrated the ability to significantly reduce the human and computational cost of accurately approximating the solution to partial differential equations (PDEs). In this thesis, we consider the potential advantages of incorporating higher-order e...
