1. Hybrid Methods for Unsteady Fluid Flow Problems in Complex Geometries
Sammanfattning : In this thesis, stable and efficient hybrid methods which combine high order finite difference methods and unstructured finite volume methods for time-dependent initial boundary value problems have been developed. The hybrid methods make it possible to combine the efficiency of the finite difference method and the flexibility of the finite volume method. LÄS MER
2. Error analysis of summation-by-parts formulations : Dispersion, transmission and accuracy
Sammanfattning : In this thesis we consider errors arising from finite difference operators on summation-by-parts (SBP) form, used in the discretisation of partial differential equations. The SBP operators are augmented with simultaneous-approximation-terms (SATs) to weakly impose boundary conditions. LÄS MER
3. Summation-by-Parts Finite Difference Methods for Wave Propagation and Earthquake Modeling
Sammanfattning : Waves manifest in many areas of physics, ranging from large-scale seismic waves in geophysics down to particle descriptions in quantum physics. Wave propagation may often be described mathematically by partial differential equations (PDE). Unfortunately, analytical solutions to PDEs are in many cases notoriously difficult to obtain. LÄS MER
