  1. 6. A vertex-centered discontinuous Galerkin method for flow problems

    Author : Sven-Erik Ekström; Martin Berggren; Per Lötstedt; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Beräkningsvetenskap med inriktning mot numerisk analys; Scientific Computing with specialization in Numerical Analysis;

    Abstract : The understanding of flow problems, and finding their solution, has been important for most of human history, from the design of aqueducts to boats and airplanes. The use of physical miniature models and wind tunnels were, and still are, useful tools for design, but with the development of computers, an increasingly large part of the design process is assisted by computational fluid dynamics (CFD).

  2. 7. Matrix-Less Methods for Computing Eigenvalues of Large Structured Matrices

    Author : Sven-Erik Ekström; Maya Neytcheva; Stefano Serra-Capizzano; Carlo Garoni; Lothar Reichel; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Toeplitz matrices; eigenvalues; eigenvalue asymptotics; polynomial interpolation; extrapolation; generating function and spectral symbol; Beräkningsvetenskap med inriktning mot numerisk analys; Scientific Computing with specialization in Numerical Analysis;

    Abstract : When modeling natural phenomena with linear partial differential equations, the discretized system of equations is in general represented by a matrix. To solve or analyze these systems, we are often interested in the spectral behavior of these matrices. READ MORE

  3. 8. Multiscale Methods and Uncertainty Quantification

    Author : Daniel Elfverson; Axel Målqvist; Frédéric Legoll; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; multiscale methods; finite element method; discontinuous Galerkin; Petrov-Galerkin; a priori; a posteriori; complex geometry; uncertainty quantification; multilevel Monte Carlo; failure probability; Beräkningsvetenskap med inriktning mot numerisk analys; Scientific Computing with specialization in Numerical Analysis;

    Abstract : In this thesis we consider two great challenges in computer simulations of partial differential equations: multiscale data, varying over multiple scales in space and time, and data uncertainty, due to lack of or inexact measurements.We develop a multiscale method based on a coarse scale correction, using localized fine scale computations.

  4. 9. On discontinuous Galerkin multiscale methods

    Author : Daniel Elfverson; Axel Målqvist; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Beräkningsvetenskap med inriktning mot numerisk analys; Scientific Computing with specialization in Numerical Analysis;

    Abstract : In this thesis a new multiscale method, the discontinuous Galerkin multiscale method, is proposed. The method uses localized fine scale computations to correct a global coarse scale equation and thereby takes the fine scale features into account. READ MORE

  5. 10. Stable Numerical Methods with Boundary and Interface Treatment for Applications in Aerodynamics

    Author : Sofia Eriksson; Jan Nordström; Gunilla Kreiss; Thomas Hagstrom; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; summation by parts; simultaneous approximation term; accuracy; stability; finite difference methods; Beräkningsvetenskap med inriktning mot numerisk analys; Scientific Computing with specialization in Numerical Analysis;

    Abstract : In numerical simulations, problems stemming from aerodynamics pose many challenges for the method used. Some of these are addressed in this thesis, such as the fluid interacting with objects, the presence of shocks, and various types of boundary conditions. READ MORE
