- Title
Think Before You Compute: A Prelude to Computational Fluid Dynamics.
- Authors
Heil, Matthias
- Abstract
It discusses alternative spatial discretisations (finite elements and spectral methods), time stepping and linear algebra. Boundary integral methods, fast Poisson solvers and fast multipole methods are all covered in a few pages. A chapter on particle methods provides a brief overview of a wide range of such techniques for modelling fluids and granular materials, highlighting the methods' strengths and weaknesses, with the latter occasionally conveyed in very strong statements such as "I see no useful role for this approach".
