Filtering in the numerical simulation of turbulent compressible flow with sysmmetry preserving discretizations 

    Baez Vidal, Aleix (Date of defense: 2019-01-10)

    The present thesis investigates how explicit filters can be useful in numerical simulations of turbulent, compressible flow with symmetry preserving discretizations. Such explicit filters provide stability to simulations ...

    Parallel algorithms for computational fluid dynamics on unstructured meshes 

    Borrell Pol, Ricard (Date of defense: 2012-10-31)

    La simulació numèrica directa (DNS) de fluxos complexes és actualment una utopia per la majoria d'aplicacions industrials ja que els requeriments computacionals son massa elevats. Donat un flux, la diferència entre els ...

    Parallel multigrid algorithms for computational fluid dynamics and heat transfer 

    Soria Guerrero, Manel (Date of defense: 2000-07-18)

    The main purpose of the dissertation is to contribute to the development of numerical techniques for computational heat transfer and fluid flow, suitable for low cost (loosely coupled) parallel computers. It is focused on ...
