Abstract
This paper describes the development of a parallel model refinement tool REVOCAP_Refiner and its application to efficient large scale finite element analyses. The model refinement tool is implemented into parallel solvers as common library, and model refinement is performed completely in parallel without any communication among processors. A user does not need to handle the refined large scale model directly, and a process of producing large scale mesh can be shortened dramatically. To demonstrate its practical performances, it is implemented into a parallel solid solver named FrontISTR and a parallel flow solver named FrontFlow/blue, respectively, and some numerical examples are given.
