Solution Techniques for Large-Scale Cfd Problems

Current CFD problems of interest are typically of a large-scale nature, characterized by a size and complexity demanding the combined efforts of interdisciplinary teams from engineering, mathematics, computer science and physics. This book thus groups a prestigious cross-section of internationally known scientists invited to expound on the following themes: Algorithms for vector, parallel and virtual-parallel architectures Algorithms for massively parallel architectures Convergence enhancement techniques, namely preconditioned interative methods for implicit or fully-coupled approaches Convergence enhancement techniques, such as defect correction, multigrid, formulation preconditioning and zonal methods Application of these techniques to large-scale CFD analysis and design. This book should prove equally valuable for CFD developers, practitioners and graduate students.Habashi, Wagdi G. is the author of 'Solution Techniques for Large-Scale Cfd Problems' with ISBN 9780471958109 and ISBN 0471958107.
