A uniform grid is deformed to a grid clustered around a circle. The circle could be located anywhere in the domain. This is an application of the static mode. The circle is initially located with its center at (0.5,0.5) and radius 0.2. The suceeding circles retain the same radius but its center is moved to the point (0.5,0.5 - 0.05n), where n = 1, . . . , 10.

A 50 x 50 grid was used on the unit square [0,1] x [0,1]. The time step dt = 0.025. Five runs of the deformation method was used to generate each grid.
