Spectral/HP Element Methods for Computational Fluid Dynamics

by George E.M. Karniadakis and Spencer Sherwin

Book Overview

Spectral methods have long been popular in direct and large eddy simulation of turbulent flows, but their use in areas with complex-geometry computational domains has historically been much more limited. More recently the need to find accurate solutions to the viscous flow equations around complex configurations has led to the development of high-order discretization procedures on unstructured meshes, which are also recognized as more efficient for...
