Adaptive numerical techniques for the long term dynamics of dissipative partial differential equations

PI: Bosco García Archilla

Abstract: We study and develo numerical techniques for time-integration and continuation in dissipative partial differential equations (PDEs). Starting from the most advanced time-integration techniques, we simplify those parts of the computation with negligible effect on the final result. Similar results will be used in continuation methods for parameter-dependent steady problems. The resulting techniques will be applied to natural convection problems in fluid mechanics, in order to complete stability and bifurcation diagrams, which cannot be computed with existing software.
