APMA 2821G - High-Performance Discontinuous Galerkin Solvers

Institution:

Brown University

Subject:

Description:

Addresses strategies and algorithms in devising efficient discontinuous Galerkin solvers for fluid flow equations such as Euler and Navier-Stokes. The course starts with an introduction to discontinuous Galerkin methods for elliptic and hyperbolic equations and then focuses on the following topics: 1) Serial and parallel implementations of various discontinuous Galerkin operators for curvilinear ele- ments in multiple space dimensions. 2) Explicit, semi-explicit and implicit time discretizations. 3) Multigrid (multi-level) solvers and preconditioners for systems arising from discontinuous Galerkin approximations of the partial differential equations.
