The course presents computational methods for incompressible and compressible viscous flows at an intermediate level. Topics are chosen from: grid generation techniques; finite volume schemes; stability analysis; artificial viscosity; explicit and implicit schemes; flux-vector splitting; monotonic advection schemes; multigrid methods; particle-based simulation methods. Students who have received credit for AE/ME 3103 will not receive credit for AE/ME 6108.
Prerequisites
fluid dynamics; an introductory course in numerical methods for partial differential equations; programming language experience)
