This paper provides theoretical estimates that quantify and clarify the savings associated to the use of element-level static condensation as a first step of an iterative solver. These estimates are verified numerically. ...

The PRIMULA code, a multi scale and multithreads open source framework based on finite elements applicable to the numerical resolution of partial differential equations is presented. PRIMULA is portable to LINUX/UNIX, where ...

This paper discuss a coupling strategy of two different software packages to provide fluid structure interaction (FSI) analysis. The basic idea is to combine the advantages of the two codes to create a powerful FSI solver ...

This paper presents a method for the fluid-structure interaction by a hybrid approach that uses lattice-Boltzmann method (LBM) for the fluid dynamics analysis and fixed-grid FEM (FGFEM) for the structural analysis. The ...

Electrophoretic separations comprise a group of analytical techniques such as capillary zone electrophoresis, isoelectric focusing, isotachophoresis, and free flow electrophoresis. These techniques have been miniaturized ...

Abstract. We propose a high performance computing strategy (HPC) to simulate the deformation of a solid body through time as a consequence of the internal forces provoked by its temperature change, using the Finite ...

We introduce and study an adaptive finite element method (FEM) for the Stokes system based on an Uzawa outer iteration to update the pressure and an elliptic adaptive inner iteration for velocity. We show linear convergence ...

This thesis presents novel contributions for microwave heating simulations, inside a single mode rectangular cavity, via numerical solvers. Although, the thermalelectromagnetic problem is weakly coupled, in many situations, ...

We present significant improvements and validations of a deterministic neutron transport code (NEUTRO) dedicated to solving the Boltzmann Transport Equation. The code is integrated as a module in the Alya software package ...
