Book A Parallel  Adaptive Discontinuous Galerkin Method for Hyperbolic Problems on Unstructured Meshes

Download or read book A Parallel Adaptive Discontinuous Galerkin Method for Hyperbolic Problems on Unstructured Meshes written by Andrew Giuliani and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis is concerned with the parallel, adaptive solution of hyperbolic conservation laws on unstructured meshes. First, we present novel algorithms for cell-based adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) on unstructured meshes of triangles on graphics processing units (GPUs). Our implementation makes use of improved memory management techniques and a coloring algorithm for avoiding race conditions. The algorithm is entirely implemented on the GPU, with negligible communication between device and host. We show that the overhead of the AMR subroutines is small compared to the high-order solver and that the proportion of total run time spent adaptively refining the mesh decreases with the order of approximation. We apply our code to a number of benchmarks as well as more recently proposed problems for the Euler equations that require extremely high resolution. We present the solution to a shock reflection problem that addresses the von Neumann triple point paradox. We also study the problem of shock disappearance and self-similar diffraction of weak shocks around thin films. Next, we analyze the stability and accuracy of second-order limiters for the discontinuous Galerkin method on unstructured triangular grids. We derive conditions for a limiter such that the numerical solution preserves second order accuracy and satisfies the local maximum principle. This leads to a new measure of cell size that is approximately twice as large as the radius of the inscribed circle. It is shown with numerical experiments that the resulting bound on the time step is tight. We also consider various combinations of limiting points and limiting neighborhoods and present numerical experiments comparing the accuracy, stability, and efficiency of the corresponding limiters. We show that the theory for strong stability preserving (SSP) time stepping methods employed with the method of lines-type discretizations of hyperbolic conservation laws may result in overly stringent time step restrictions. We analyze a fully discrete finite volume method with slope reconstruction and a second order SSP Runge-Kutta time integrator to show that the maximum stable time step can be increased over the SSP limit. Numerical examples show that this result extends to two-dimensional problems on triangular meshes. Finally, we propose a moment limiter for the discontinuous Galerkin method applied to hyperbolic conservation laws in two and three dimensions. The limiter works by finding directions in which the solution coefficients can be separated and limits them independently of one another by comparing to forward and backward reconstructed differences. The limiter has a precomputed stencil of constant size, which provides computational advantages in terms of implementation and runtime. We provide examples that demonstrate stability and second order accuracy of solutions.

Book A Spacetime Discontinuous Galerkin Method for Hyperbolic Conservation Laws

Download or read book A Spacetime Discontinuous Galerkin Method for Hyperbolic Conservation Laws written by Jayandran Palaniappan and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 85 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The basic SDG approximation is a simple Bubnov-Galerkin projection that is not prone to global patterns of spurious oscillations. However, it does require stabilization to eliminate local overshoot and undershoot in the immediate vicinity of shocks and other discontinuous solution features. We address this requirement with a diffusion operator whose intensity is controlled by a shock indicator that measures the relative strength of the high-frequency components of the SDG approximation. Results demonstrating the performance of the SDG method, the h-adaptive refinement scheme, and the diffusion operator for applications of the inviscid Euler equations in one and two spatial dimensions are presented.

Book Parallel Implementation of the Discontinuous Galerkin Method

Download or read book Parallel Implementation of the Discontinuous Galerkin Method written by Abdalkader Baggag and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 14 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: "This paper describes a parallel implementation of the discontinuous Galerkin method. Discontinuous Galerkin is a spatially compact method that retains its accuracy and robustness on non-smooth unstructured grids and is well suited for time dependent simulations. Several parallelization approaches are studied and evaluated. The most natural and symmetric of the approaches has been implemented in an object-oriented code used to simulate aeroacoustic scattering. The parallel implementation is MPI-based and has been tested on various parallel platforms such as the SGI Origin, IBM SP2, and clusters of SGI and Sun workstations. The scalability results presented for the SGI Origin show slightly superlinear speedup on a fixed-size problem due to cache effects."

Book The Runge Kutta Discontinuous Galerkin Method for Conservation Laws V  Multidimensional Systems

Download or read book The Runge Kutta Discontinuous Galerkin Method for Conservation Laws V Multidimensional Systems written by Bernardo Cockburn and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the fifth paper in a series in which we construct and study the so-called Range-Kutta Discontinuous Galerkin method for numerically solving hyperbolic conservation laws. In this paper, we extend the method to multidimensional nonlinear systems of conservation laws. The algorithms are described and discussed, including algorithm formulation and practical implementation issues such as the numerical fluxes, quadrature rules, degrees of freedom, and the slope limiters, both in the triangular and the rectangular element cases. Numerical experiments for two dimensional Euler equations of compressible gas dynamics are presented that show the effect of the (formal) order of accuracy and the use of triangles or rectangles, on the quality of the approximation.

Book The Discontinuous Galerkin Method on Cartesian Grids with Embedded Geometries

Download or read book The Discontinuous Galerkin Method on Cartesian Grids with Embedded Geometries written by Ruibin Qin and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this thesis, we analyze theoretical properties of the discontinuous Galerkin method (DGM) and propose novel approaches to implementation with the aim to increase its efficiency. First, we derive explicit expressions for the eigenvalues (spectrum) of the discontinuous Galerkin spatial discretization applied to the linear advection equation. We show that the eigenvalues are related to the subdiagonal [p/p+1] Pade approximation of exp( -z) when the p-th degree basis functions are used. Then, we extend the analysis to nonuniform meshes where both the size of elements and the composition of the mesh influence the spectrum. We show that the spectrum depends on the ratio of the size of the largest to the smallest cell as well as the number of cells of different types. We find that the spectrum grows linearly as a function of the proportion of small cells present in the mesh when the size of small cells is greater than some critical value. When the smallest cells are smaller than this critical value, the corresponding eigenvalues lie outside of the main spectral curve. Numerical examples on nonuniform meshes are presented to show the improvement on the time step restriction. In particular, this result can be used to improve the time step restriction on Cartesian grids. Finally, we present a discontinuous Galerkin method for solutions of the Euler equations on Cartesian grids with embedded geometries. Cutting an embedded geometry out of the Cartesian grid creates cut cells, which are difficult to deal with for two reasons. One is the restrictive CFL number and the other is the integration on irregularly shaped cells. We use explicit time integration employing cell merging to avoid restrictively small time steps. We provide an algorithm for splitting complex cells into triangles and use standard quadrature rules on these for numerical integration. To avoid the loss of accuracy due to straight sided grids, we employ the curvature boundary conditions. We show that the proposed method is robust and high-order accurate.

Book A Cartesian Grid Embedded Boundary Method for Hyperbolic Conservation Laws

Download or read book A Cartesian Grid Embedded Boundary Method for Hyperbolic Conservation Laws written by and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We present a second-order Godunov algorithm to solve time-dependent hyperbolic systems of conservation laws on irregular domains. Our approach is based on a formally consistent discretization of the conservation laws on a finite-volume grid obtained from intersecting the domain with a Cartesian grid. We address the small-cell stability problem associated with such methods by hybridizing our conservative discretization with a stable, nonconservative discretization at irregular control volumes, and redistributing the difference in the mass increments to nearby cells in a way that preserves stability and local conservation. The resulting method is second-order accurate in L1 for smooth problems, and is robust in the presence of large-amplitude discontinuities intersecting the irregular boundary.

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.

Book Discontinuous Galerkin Methods

Download or read book Discontinuous Galerkin Methods written by Bernardo Cockburn and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A class of finite element methods, the Discontinuous Galerkin Methods (DGM), has been under rapid development recently and has found its use very quickly in such diverse applications as aeroacoustics, semi-conductor device simula tion, turbomachinery, turbulent flows, materials processing, MHD and plasma simulations, and image processing. While there has been a lot of interest from mathematicians, physicists and engineers in DGM, only scattered information is available and there has been no prior effort in organizing and publishing the existing volume of knowledge on this subject. In May 24-26, 1999 we organized in Newport (Rhode Island, USA), the first international symposium on DGM with equal emphasis on the theory, numerical implementation, and applications. Eighteen invited speakers, lead ers in the field, and thirty-two contributors presented various aspects and addressed open issues on DGM. In this volume we include forty-nine papers presented in the Symposium as well as a survey paper written by the organiz ers. All papers were peer-reviewed. A summary of these papers is included in the survey paper, which also provides a historical perspective of the evolution of DGM and its relation to other numerical methods. We hope this volume will become a major reference in this topic. It is intended for students and researchers who work in theory and application of numerical solution of convection dominated partial differential equations. The papers were written with the assumption that the reader has some knowledge of classical finite elements and finite volume methods.

Book Efficient High Order Discretizations for Computational Fluid Dynamics

Download or read book Efficient High Order Discretizations for Computational Fluid Dynamics written by Martin Kronbichler and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-01-04 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book introduces modern high-order methods for computational fluid dynamics. As compared to low order finite volumes predominant in today's production codes, higher order discretizations significantly reduce dispersion errors, the main source of error in long-time simulations of flow at higher Reynolds numbers. A major goal of this book is to teach the basics of the discontinuous Galerkin (DG) method in terms of its finite volume and finite element ingredients. It also discusses the computational efficiency of high-order methods versus state-of-the-art low order methods in the finite difference context, given that accuracy requirements in engineering are often not overly strict. The book mainly addresses researchers and doctoral students in engineering, applied mathematics, physics and high-performance computing with a strong interest in the interdisciplinary aspects of computational fluid dynamics. It is also well-suited for practicing computational engineers who would like to gain an overview of discontinuous Galerkin methods, modern algorithmic realizations, and high-performance implementations.
