In this paper we describe the history, performance, and design concepts of direct solvers for algebraic systems resulting from Galerkin discretizations of partial differential equations. Popular direct solver implementations ...

We study the performance of direct solvers on linear systems of equations resulting from isogeometric analysis. The problem of choice is the canonical Laplace equation in three dimensions. From this study we conclude that ...

This paper derives theoretical estimates of the computational cost for isogeometric multi-frontal direct solver executed on parallel distributed memory machines. We show theoretically that for the Cp-1 global continuity ...

This work presents the verification of using OpenFOAM software applied to supersonic velocity fluid flow over cones. Using three OpenFOAM solvers simulations are made to find the value of the frontal drag coefficient. To ...

SUMMARY: We compare the computational efficiency of isogeometric Galerkin and collocation methods for partial differential equations in the asymptotic regime. We define a metric to identify when numerical experiments have ...

RESUMEN: El propósito de la presente investigación fue observar y analizar el comportamiento del fluido en las hélices contrarrotativas del motor de rotor abierto al realizar variaciones en las geometrías de estas. ...

La tesis tiene como objetivo reproducir los fenómenos que ocurren en la poza de disipación en el Reservorio Poechos y obtener información relevante sobre la erosión en las proximidades de los cimientos de la presa. Con tal ...

This work was divided into three parts. In the first part we obtained the experimental drying kinetics for Mexican softwood (Pinus pseudostrobus). In the second part, from experimental data we have developed a semi-empirical ...

This work presents a numerical investigation of three dimensional viscoelastic free surface flows. In particular, using two different numerical methodologies, we have simulated a typical free-surface benchmark flow ...
