Programma dettagliato e risultati di apprendimento attesi
Course objective The aim of the course is to enable graduate students to develop and employ modern algorithms for simulating both steady and unsteady incompressible flows giving a survey of state-of-the-art numerical methods. The course presents numerical methods for the numerical solution of the equations expressing the conservation laws of mass and momentum of an incompressible fluid. Spatial discretizations of local type (finite differences, volumes and elements) and of global type (spectral methods) will be considered to deal with problems of both engineering and fundamental interest.
Contents 1. Spatial discretization * Finite differences and the immersed-boundary method * Finite elements * Spectral and spectral-element methods * Stabilization for convection-dominated flows 2. Time discretization * Monolithic approach: time discretization (finite differences and Runge-Kutta schemes) * Time-splitting methods: exact-splitting methods, fractional-step methods.
