DUNE Summer School "Discretization of Evolution Equations"

DUNE Summer School

"Discretization of Evolution Equations"

R. Klöfkorn

The focus of the course is the discretization of evolution equations using the DUNE-Fem module of DUNE. The cource is split into two parts. The first part provides the necessary basic knowledge of the DUNE-Grid interface based on the DUNE-Grid-Howto. This knowledge is needed to attend to the more interesting second part of the Summer School. For those who are already familiar with the DUNE-Grid interface this part can be seen as optinal.

DUNE Part 1 - A short Introduction to DUNE

(announcement german)

This course will focus on an introduction into the DUNE grid interface based on the DUNE-Grid-Howto. This course provides the necessary knowledge of the DUNE-Grid interface for the second part of the Summer School.

DUNE Part 2 -
Discretization of Evolution Equations using DUNE-Fem

(announcement german)

This course will focus on the numerical treatment of evolution equations by using Continuous and Discontinuous Galerkin Methods applied to evolutions equations of the form
$\displaystyle \partial_t U + \nabla \cdot \Big ( F(U) - D(U) \nabla U \Big) + S(U) = 0 \, .$    
Participants will learn how to use DUNE-Fem to discritize equations of the above form and how to apply local grid adaptivity and how to perform parallel simulations by using the interfaces of DUNE and DUNE-Fem.
