A general multigrid framework is discussed for obtaining textbook e ciency to solutions of the compressible Euler and Navier Stokes equations in conservation law form The general methodology relies on a distributed relaxation procedure to reduce errors in regular smoothly varying ow regions separate and distinct treatments for each of the factors elliptic and or hyperbolic are used to attain op...

We discuss some issues that arise in the implementation of numerical algorithms for computational fluid dynamics (CFD) on multiprocessor systems such as hypercubes. We identify several important kernel numerical algorithms from CFD that map well onto the hypercube architecture. We emphasize the importance of considering the optimal mapping for a collection of kernel algorithms used in an applic...

Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations are aimed to reconstruct the reality of fluid motion and behaviour as accurately as possible, to better understand the natural phenomena under specified conditions. Ideally, computational models would need to cover different scales and geometric configurations, and the classic CFD solvers most often require long computational times to satisfy the c...

I read this book by Peyret and Taylor with pleasure. At last there is an introductory book on computational fluid dynamics that is intelligent, fairly wellinformed, and reasonably up-to-date. Its perspective is not, however, fully consistent with a mathematician's point of view. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is the process of solving problems in fluid dynamics numericallyon a computer. It ...

In a Priority Program on Massively Parallel Computing, eight Dutch research groups (http://www.phys.uu.nl/~mpr/) cooperate since 1995 to develop new algorithms and software to simulate the non-linear dynamics of thermonuclear, geo-physical, and astrophysical plasmas. As one result of this collaboration, the general-purpose Versatile Advection Codemonstrated excellent scaling properties across a...
