Math 388.03 Title: Computational fluid dynamics: Numerical methods and modeling Instructor: Anita Layton We will begin with a tutorial on computational fluid dynamics, and survey a variety of numerical methods for computing solutions to the Stokes and Navier-Stokes equations. We will then proceed to discuss more advanced numerical methods, including methods for simulating the hydrodynamics arising from the interactions of a viscous fluid and an immersed solid structure. If time permits, we will talk about a few applications that involve computational fluid dynamics. This mini-course is intended for graduate students and postdocs with some knowledge of numerical partial differential equations. Prior experience with computational fluid dynamics is not required.
