  5. 10. High order summation-by-parts methods in time and space

    Författare :Tomas Lundquist; Jan Nordström; Peter Eliasson; David A. Kopriva; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; summation-by-parts; time integration; stiff problems; weak initial conditions; high order methods; simultaneous-approximation-term; finite difference; discontinuous Galerkin; spectral methods; conservation; energy stability; complex geometries; non-conforming grid interfaces; interpolation;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis develops the methodology for solving initial boundary value problems with the use of summation-by-parts discretizations. The combination of high orders of accuracy and a systematic approach to construct provably stable boundary and interface procedures makes this methodology especially suitable for scientific computations with high demands on efficiency and robustness.
