Dune-SPGrid

The DUNE module dune-spgrid provides a structured, parallel grid (SPGrid). It was developed by Martin Nolte during his phd thesis.

Though the dune-grid module already contains two structured grids, SGrid and YaspGrid, both lack several important features. For example, YaspGrid is not able to communicate data attached to edges or faces. See Features for more details.

The SPGrid implementation has been shown to be very efficent in serial programs as well as in massively parallel ones, provided the macro grid is sufficiently fine.
