Explicit procedures for the solution of equation systems in conservation law form, on unstructured tetrahedral meshes, have been parallelised and applied to the simulation of a number of different problem areas which are of interest in aerospace engineering. Methods which will allow the application of the approach to simulations involving very large meshes have been proposed and implemented and outstanding difficulties have been identified. For certain classes of problems, further developments in solution algorithm technology will be required before the approach can be widely employed in the design environment.
