Abstract

This paper presents a novel mesh-update technique for unsteady free-surface Newtonian flows using spectral element method and relying on the arbitrary Lagrangian---Eulerian kinematic description for moving the grid. Selected results showing compatibility of this mesh-update technique with spectral element method are given
