Visualization Methods In High Performance Computing And Flow Simulation

Visualization Methods in High Performance Computing and Flow Simulation

The developments of new algorithms in applied mathematics, of new concepts in computer sciences, and of new hardware in computer technology have led to an immense output of data streams describing the solutions of important physical or technological problems. In order to understand and to explore the results of calculations, new visualization methods have been developed. These novel methods are indispensable for mathematicians and engineers working with problems such as flow theory or elasticity. These proceedings contain selected contributions from the DFG-workshop on visualization, held at the University of Paderborn, January 18--20, 1994, and will be of interest to researchers in the above mentioned fields.

Visualization Methods in High Performance Computing and Flow Simulation

Direct and Large-Eddy Simulation II

Progress in the numerical simulation of turbulence has been rapid in the 1990s. New techniques both for the numerical approximation of the Navier-Stokes equations and for the subgrid-scale models used in large-eddy simulation have emerged and are being widely applied for both fundamental and applied engineering studies, along with novel ideas for the performance and use of simulation for compressible, chemically reacting and transitional flows. This collection of papers from the second ERCOFTAC Workshop on Direct and Large-Eddy Simulation, held in Grenoble in September 1996, presents the key research being undertaken in Europe and Japan on these topics. Describing in detail the ambitious use of DNS for fundamental studies and of LES for complex flows of potential and actual engineering importance, this volume will be of interest to all researchers active in the area.
