Although slope limiters are widely used to maintain monotonicity near discontinuities, typical limiting procedures violate closure laws at the discrete level when applied to multi-material hydrodynamics equations. Due to this, the high-order expansions of quantities related by the closure laws are no longer consistent. The commonly observed symptom of this consistency-violation is that the numerical method fails to maintain constant pressure and velocity across material interfaces. This leads to sub-optimal convergence rates for smooth multi-material problems as well. Specialized limiting procedures that satisfy consistency while maintaining conservation need to be developed for such equations. A novel procedure that re-instates consistency into slope-limited high-order discretizations applied to the multi-material hydrodynamics equations is presented here. Using simple examples, it is demonstrated that the presented method satisfies closure laws at the discrete level, while maintaining conservative properties of the high-order method. Furthermore, this procedure involves a projection step which relies on the compact basis of the underlying spatial discretization, i.e. for discontinuous schemes (viz. DG and FV) the projection is local, and does not involve global matrix solves. Comparisons with conventional approaches emphasizes the necessity of the consistent closure-law preserving limiting approach, in order to maintain design order of accuracy for smooth multi-material problems.}, journal={JOURNAL OF COMPUTATIONAL PHYSICS}, author={Pandare, Aditya K. and Waltz, Jacob and Li, Weizhao and Luo, Hong and Bakosi, Jozsef}, year={2023}, month={Oct} }

In the presented method, a higher-order piece-wise polynomial is reconstructed based on the underlying discontinuous Galerkin (DG) solution. This reconstruction is done by using a newly developed variational formulation. The variational reconstruction (VR) can be seen as an extension of the compact finite difference (FD) schemes to unstructured grids. The reconstructed variables are obtained by solving an extreme-value problem, which minimizes the jumps of the reconstructed piece-wise polynomials across the cell interfaces, and therefore maximizes the smoothness of the reconstructed solution. Intrinsically, the stencils of the presented reconstruction are the entire mesh, so this method is robust even on tetrahedral grids. A variety of benchmark test cases are presented to assess the accuracy, efficiency and robustness of this rDG method. The numerical experiments demonstrate that the developed rDG method based on variational formulation can maintain the linear stability, obtain the designed high-order accuracy, and outperform the rDG counterpart based on the least-squares reconstruction for both inviscid and viscous compressible flows.}, journal={JOURNAL OF COMPUTATIONAL PHYSICS}, author={Li, Lingquan and Liu, Xiaodong and Luo, Hong}, year={2022}, month={Oct} }

The hybrid finite-element/finite-volume discretization circumvents the well-known Ladyzhenskaya–Babuška–Brezzi conditions for stability, and does not require special treatment to filter pressure modes by either Rhie–Chow interpolation or by using a Petrov–Galerkin finite element formulation. The use of a co-velocity with a high-resolution advection method and a linearly consistent edge-based treatment of viscous/diffusive terms yields a robust algorithm for a broad spectrum of incompressible flows. The high-resolution advection method is shown to deliver second-order spatial convergence on mixed element topology meshes, and the implicit advective treatment significantly increases the stable time-step size. The algorithm is robust and extensible, permitting the incorporation of features such as porous media flow, RANS and LES turbulence models, and semi-/fully-implicit time stepping. A series of verification and validation problems are used to illustrate the convergence properties of the algorithm.

The rDG ( P n P m ) + CG ( P n ) method is designed to increase the accuracy of the hybrid DG ( P n ) + CG ( P n ) method and yet still satisfy Ladyženskaja–Babuška–Brezzi (LBB) condition, thus avoiding the pressure checkerboard instability. An upwind method is used to discretize the nonlinear convective fluxes in the momentum equations in order to suppress spurious oscillations in the velocity field. A number of incompressible flow problems for a variety of flow conditions are computed to numerically assess the spatial order of convergence of the rDG ( P n P m ) + CG ( P n ) method. The numerical experiments indicate that both rDG ( P 0 P 1 ) + CG ( P 1 ) and rDG ( P 1 P 2 ) + CG ( P 1 ) methods can attain the designed 2nd order and 3rd order accuracy in space for the velocity respectively.

However, efforts on porting implicit PDE solvers to massively parallel shared-memory heterogeneous architectures, such as general-purpose graphics processing units (GPGPUs), have largely avoided BILU, leaving their enormous performance potential unfulfilled in many applications where the use of implicit schemes and BILU-type preconditioners/solvers is highly preferred. Indeed, strong inherent data dependency and high memory bandwidth demanded by block matrix operations render naive adoptions of existing sequential BILU algorithms extremely inefficient on GPGPUs. In this study, we present a fine-grained BILU (FGBILU) scheme which is particularly effective on GPGPUs. A straightforward one-sweep wavefront ordering is employed to resolve data dependency. Granularity is substantially refined as block matrix operations are carried out in a true element-wise approach. Particularly, the inversion of diagonal blocks, a well-known bottleneck, is accomplished by a parallel in-place Gauss–Jordan elimination. As a result, FGBILU is able to offer low-overhead concurrent computation at O(n2N2) scale on a 3D PDE domain with a linear scale of N. FGBILU has been implemented with both OpenACC and CUDA and tested as a block-sparse linear solver on a structured 3D grid.

The idea behind this hybrid method is to combine the orthogonality and directionality of a structured grid, the efficiency and simplicity of a Cartesian grid, and the flexibility and ease of an unstructured grid in an attempt to develop an automatic, robust, and fast hybrid mesh generation method for configurations of engineering interest. A semistructured quadrilateral grid is first generated on the wetted surfaces. A background Cartesian grid, covering the domain of interest, is then constructed using a Quadtree-based Cartesian Method. Those Cartesian cells overlapping with the semistructured grids or locating outside of computational domain are then removed using an Alternating Digital Tree method. Finally, an unstructured grid generation method is used to generate unstructured triangular cells to fill all empty regions in the domain as a result of the trimming process. The automatic placement of sources at the geometrical irregularities is developed to render these regions isotropic, thus effectively overcoming the difficulty of generating highly stretched good-quality elements in these regions. The self-dividing of the exposed semistructured elements with high aspect ratio and the adaptation of the background mesh using the cell size information from the exposed semistructured elements for generating Cartesian cells are introduced to improve the quality of unstructured triangular elements and guarantee the success of the unstructured grid generation in the void regions.

A variety of compressible flow problems for a wide range of flow conditions from low Mach number to supersonic in both two-dimensional and three-dimensional configurations are computed to demonstrate the performance ofthisp-multigrid method. The numerical results obtained strongly indicate the order-independent property of this p-multigrid method and demonstrate that this method is orders-of-magnitude faster than its explicit counterpart The performance comparison with a finite volume method shows that using this p-multigrid method, the discontinuous Galerkin method, provides a viable, attractive, competitive, and probably even superior alternative to the finite volume method for computing compressible flows at all speeds.}, number={3}, journal={AIAA JOURNAL}, author={Luo, Hong and Baum, Joseph D. and Lohner, Rainald}, year={2008}, month={Mar}, pages={635–652} }

It is found that a simple modification of signal velocities in the HLLC scheme based on the eigenvalues of the preconditioned system is only needed to reduce excessive numerical diffusion at the low Mach number. The modified scheme has been implemented and used to compute a variety of flow problems in both two and three dimensions on unstructured grids. Numerical results obtained indicate that the modified HLLC scheme is accurate, robust, and efficient for flow calculations across the Mach-number range. ISTORICALLY, numerical algorithms for the solution of the Euler and Navier‐Stokes equations are classified as either pressure-based or density-based solution methods. The pressurebased methods, originally developed and well suited for incompressible flows, are typically based on the pressure correction techniques. They usually use a staggered grid and solve the governing equations in a segregated manner. The density-based methods, originally developed and robust for compressible flows, use time-arching procedures to solve the hyperbolic system of governing equations in a coupled manner. In general, density-based methods are not suitable for efficiently solving low Mach number or incompressible flow problems, because of large ratio of acoustic and convective timescales at the low-speed flow regimes. To alleviate this stiffness and associated convergence problems, time-derivative preconditioning techniques have been developed and used successfully for solving low-Machnumber and incompressible flows by many investigators, including Chorin, 1 Choi and Merkle, 2 Turkel, 3 Weiss and Smith, 4 and Dailey and Pletcher, 5 among others. Such methods seek to modify the time component of the governing equations so that the convergence can be made independent of Mach number. This is accomplished by altering the acoustic speeds of the system so that all eigenvalues become of the same order, and thus condition number remains bounded independent of the Mach number of the flows. Over the last two decades characteristic-based upwind methods have established themselves as the methods of choice for prescribing the numerical fluxes for compressible Euler equations. When these upwind methods are used to compute the numerical fluxes for the preconditioned Euler equations, solution accuracy at low speeds can be compromised, unless the numerical flux formulation is modified to take into account the eigensystem of the precondi}, number={6}, journal={AIAA JOURNAL}, author={Luo, H and Baum, JD and Lohner, R}, year={2005}, month={Jun}, pages={1160–1166} }
