36th CFD / ADIGMA course on hp-adaptive and hp-multigrid methods


From October 26 to October 30, 2009

von Karman Institute for Fluid Dynamics, Rhode-St-Genèse, Belgium

 

 

VKI-LS

Schemes with order of accuracy higher than two have be come an important subject of research in CFD, and the perspective of applying them in industrial aeronautical context (as investigated in the EU ADIGMA project) is realistic within the next decade. This second VKI-ADIGMA lecture series focuses on the technologies which are necessary to make higher order discretization schemes really efficient and robust: h-multigrid, p-multigrid, hp-multigrid and hp-adaptive mesh algorithms based on either mesh refining (h) or increasing the order (p). Other necessary ingredients that will be discussed are residual based and goal oriented error estimators, as well as adaptive grid generation algorithms. Applications are foreseen in the area of steady and unsteady (e.g. helicopter rotor) compressible aerodynamics.

The course is organized in collaboration with the EU targeted research project ADIGMA and is oriented towards both junior and experienced engineers and researchers involved with CFD algorithm and code development. This implies that the course will be a balanced mix between introductory and advanced lectures.

The fee for the researchers involved in the ADIGMA project is of 675 euro. These prices include 21% VAT.


The Director of the Lecture Series is Prof. H. Deconinck of the von Karman Institute
