Block-Structured (regular) grid:
Block structure grids with overlapping
blocks are also called composite or Chimera
grids.
Disadvantage is that it is difficult to enforce
conservation of properties at the interface.
Easily handle complex domains.
It can be used to follow moving bodies; one
block is attached to the body and moves
with it, while a stagnant grid covers the
surroundings.

Un-Structured (irregular) grid:
For very complex geometries, the most flexible type of grid is
one which can fit an arbitrary solution domain boundary.
In principle, such grids could be used with any discretization
scheme, but they are best adapted to the finite volume and
finite element approaches.
In practice, grids made of triangles or quadrilaterals in 2D,
and tetrahedra or hexahedra in 3D are most often used.

Orthogonal Quality:
It is an indicator of grid quality.
It is defined as the angle between face normal and vector
joining cell centers.
If both are parallel the grid is of good quality. The deviation
from being parallel defines the degree of worseness of a cell.
Aspect Ratio:
It is a measure of the stretching of the cell.
Aspect Ratio = A/B
A should be maximum of all.
B should be minimum of all.
Sudden and large changes in cell aspect
ratios in areas of large gradients should
be avoided.
