Abstract
This paper considers the main algorithmic issues associated with
developing parallel mesh adaptivity software for use with tetrahedral-based parallel
finite element or finite volume solvers for tra.nsient computational mechanics
problems in three space dimensions. Issues that are addressed include the use of
different parallel data structures, the modification of these data structures when
adaptivity occurs and the dynamic maintenance of load-balance in the parallel solver.
