Logically rectangular finite volume methods with adaptive refinement on the sphere.
The logically rectangular finite volume grids for two-dimensional partial differential equations on a sphere and for three-dimensional problems in a spherical shell introduced recently have nearly uniform cell size, avoiding severe Courant number restrictions. We present recent results with adaptive mesh refinement using the GeoClaw software and demonstrate well-balanced methods that exactly ma...
متن کاملThe GeoClaw software for depth-averaged flows with adaptive refinement
Many geophysical flow or wave propagation problems can be modeled with two-dimensional depth-averaged equations, of which the shallow water equations are the simplest example. We describe the GeoClaw software that has been designed to solve problems of this nature, consisting of open source Fortran programs together with Python tools for the user interface and flow visualization. This software ...
متن کاملLogically Rectangular Grids and Finite Volume Methods for PDEs in Circular and Spherical Domains
We describe a class of logically rectangular quadrilateral and hexahedral grids for solving PDEs in circular and spherical domains, including grid mappings for the circle, the surface of the sphere, and the three-dimensional ball. The grids are logically rectangular and the computational domain is a single Cartesian grid. Compared to alternative approaches based on a multiblock data structure o...
متن کاملHigh-Order Finite-Volume Methods on Locally-Structured Grids
For many problems in astrophysics and space sciences, it is desirable to compute solutions in a way that preserves spherical symmetry, so that the dynamics of small perturbations about the spherically symmetric case are not overwhelmed by numerical error. Traditionally, such calculations have been done by discretizing the equations expressed in spherical coordinates. This approach has significa...
متن کاملDetonation Structure Simulation with AMROC
Numerical simulations can be the key to the thorough understanding of the multi-dimensional nature of transient detonation waves. But the accurate approximation of realistic detonations is extremely demanding, because a wide range of different scales needs to be resolved. In this paper, we summarize our successful efforts in simulating multidimensional detonations with detailed and highly stiff...
