Abstract

An approach to volume tracking three materials is presented that, in contrast with the so‐called β€˜onion‐skin’ methodology, assumes the existence of a β€˜triple point’ at which two interfaces between three materials intersect. The reconstruction of any cell that contains three materials is iterative: the approach is to locate a point of intersection between two interfaces that minimizes a given error expression. The advantages and limitations of the algorithm are presented via a series of advection tests that demonstrate that triple points can be reconstructed and advected just as well as simpler interfaces in typical applications.

## Model reduction by continued-fraction expansion about two or more points, including the general point s = a, is shown to be a real alternative to the methods which guarantee stability. Suitable choice of a is seen to overcome the problem of unstable reduced models while still retaining the maximu
