2 SCIRun : Application to Atmospheric Dispersion Problems Using Unstructured
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present an overview of SCIRun, a scientiic problem solving environment that allows the interactive construction, debugging, and steering of large-scale scientiic computations. Using this \computational work-bench," a scientist can design and modify simulations interactively via a dataaow programming model. SCIRun enables scientists to design and modify model geometry, interactively change simulation parameters and boundary conditions, and interactively visualize geometric models and simulation results. We show an integrated prototype problem solving environment for computational uid dynamics may be constructed by combining SCIRun with the Tetrad/CSPRINT codes. The success of the approach is illustrated by using the resulting code to solve an atmospheric diiusion example consisting of time dependent p.d.e.s on unstructured tetrahedral spatial meshes.

متن کاملApplication of the multidimensional positive de nite advection transport algorithm (MPDATA) to environmental modelling on adaptive unstructured grids
Twenty years ago, the multidimensional, positive de nite, advection transport algorithm was introduced by Smolarkiewicz. Over the two decades since, it has been applied countless times to numerous problems, however almost always on rectilinear grids. One of the few exceptions is the Operational Multiscale Environment model with Grid Adaptivity (OMEGA), an atmospheric simulation system originall...
