Download or read book An Assessment of Linear Versus Non linear Multigrid Methods for Unstructured Mesh Solvers written by Dimitri Mavriplis and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The relative performance of a non-linear FAS multigrid algorithm and an equivalent linear multigrid algorithm for solving two different non-linear problems is investigated. The first case consists of a transient radiation-diffusion problem for which an exact linearization is available, while the second problem involves the solution of the steady-state Navier-Stokes equations, where a first-order discrete Jacobian is employed as an approximation to the Jacobian of a second-order accurate discretization. When an exact linearization is employed, the linear and non-linear multigrid methods converge at identical rates, asymptotically, and the linear method is found to be more efficient due to its lower cost per cycle. When an approximate linearization is employed, as in the Navier-Stokes cases, the relative efficiency of the linear approach versus the non-linear approach depends both on the degree to which the linear system approximates the full Jacobian as well as the relative cost of linear versus non-linear multigrid cycles. For cases where convergence is limited by a poor Jacobian approximation, substantial speedup can be obtained using either multigrid method as a preconditioner to a Newton-Krylov method.

Download or read book Adaptive High order Methods In Computational Fluid Dynamics written by Zhi Jian Wang and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2011-03-24 with total page 471 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book consists of important contributions by world-renowned experts on adaptive high-order methods in computational fluid dynamics (CFD). It covers several widely used, and still intensively researched methods, including the discontinuous Galerkin, residual distribution, finite volume, differential quadrature, spectral volume, spectral difference, PNPM, and correction procedure via reconstruction methods. The main focus is applications in aerospace engineering, but the book should also be useful in many other engineering disciplines including mechanical, chemical and electrical engineering. Since many of these methods are still evolving, the book will be an excellent reference for researchers and graduate students to gain an understanding of the state of the art and remaining challenges in high-order CFD methods.
Download or read book Numerical Methods for Partial Differential Equations written by Sandip Mazumder and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2015-12-01 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Numerical Methods for Partial Differential Equations: Finite Difference and Finite Volume Methods focuses on two popular deterministic methods for solving partial differential equations (PDEs), namely finite difference and finite volume methods. The solution of PDEs can be very challenging, depending on the type of equation, the number of independent variables, the boundary, and initial conditions, and other factors. These two methods have been traditionally used to solve problems involving fluid flow. For practical reasons, the finite element method, used more often for solving problems in solid mechanics, and covered extensively in various other texts, has been excluded. The book is intended for beginning graduate students and early career professionals, although advanced undergraduate students may find it equally useful. The material is meant to serve as a prerequisite for students who might go on to take additional courses in computational mechanics, computational fluid dynamics, or computational electromagnetics. The notations, language, and technical jargon used in the book can be easily understood by scientists and engineers who may not have had graduate-level applied mathematics or computer science courses. - Presents one of the few available resources that comprehensively describes and demonstrates the finite volume method for unstructured mesh used frequently by practicing code developers in industry - Includes step-by-step algorithms and code snippets in each chapter that enables the reader to make the transition from equations on the page to working codes - Includes 51 worked out examples that comprehensively demonstrate important mathematical steps, algorithms, and coding practices required to numerically solve PDEs, as well as how to interpret the results from both physical and mathematic perspectives

This book was released on 2002 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The simulation of radiation transport in the optically thick flux-limited diffusion regime has been identified as one of the most time-consuming tasks within large simulation codes. Due to multimaterial complex geometry, the radiation transport system must often be solved on unstructured grids. In this paper, we investigate the behavior and the benefits of the unstructured P sub 1 nonconforming finite element method, which has proven to be flexible and effective on related transport problems, in solving unsteady implicit nonlinear radiation diffusion problems using Newton and Picard linearization methods. Key words. nonconforrning finite elements, radiation transport, inexact Newton linearization, multigrid preconditioning.
