High-Order Discontinuous Galerkin Methods for Conservation Laws
Start Date: 5/22/2013Start Time: 3:00 PM
End Date: 5/22/2013End Time: 4:00 PM

Event Description
Speaker: Per-Olof Persson, Assistant Professor of Mathematics, University of California, Berkeley
 
Abstract:  It is widely believed that high-order accurate numerical methods, for example discontinuous Galerkin (DG) methods, will eventually replace the traditional low-order methods in the solution of many problems, including fluid flow, solid dynamics, and wave propagation. I will explain what DG methods are and demonstrate what these methods can do in real-world problems, such as the analysis of flapping flight (e.g. the flight of birds and bats), microelectromechanical systems (MEMS), and wind turbines.
