This article presents a two-grid approach for developing a black-box iterative solver for a large class of real-life problems in continuum mechanics (heat and mass transfer, fluid dynamics, elasticity, electromagnetism, and others). The main requirements on this (non-)linear blackbox solver are: (1) robustness (the lowest number of problem-dependent components), (2) efficiency (close-tooptimal algorithmic complexity), and (3) parallelism (a parallel robust algorithm should be faster than the fastest sequential one). The basic idea is to use the auxiliary structured grid for more computational work, where (non-)linear problems are simpler to solve and to parallelize, i.e., to combine the advantages of unstructured and structured grids: simplicity of generation in complex domain geometry and opportunity to solve (non-)linear (initial-)boundary value problems by using the Robust Multigrid Technique.
