MAI0122 Course Information

Course Aims

The course intends to give the student knowledge about
  • Fundamental properties for initial boundary value problems (IBVP's). The concepts of well-posedness for the IBVP. The crucial role of boundary conditions.
  • Fundamental properties for numerical methods applied to the IBVP. Methods for analysis of finite difference schemes for IBVP's.
  • Higher order finite difference approximations, in particular the summation-by-parts (SBP) simultaneous approximation term (SAT) technique.
  • Extension of SBP-SAT to complex geometries: multi-block methods, unstructured finite volume methods, discontinuous Galerkin methods.
