PyFR: An open source framework for solving advection–diffusion type problems on streaming architectures using the flux reconstruction approach

TL;DR: The Flux Reconstruction (FR) approach unifies various high-order schemes for unstructured grids within a single framework, and is thus able to run efficiently on modern streaming architectures, such as Graphical Processing Units (GPUs).
Journal ArticleDOI

On the utility of GPU accelerated high-order methods for unsteady flow simulations

TL;DR: This study systematically compares accuracy and cost of the high-order Flux Reconstruction solver PyFR running on GPUs and the industry-standard solver STAR-CCM+ running on CPUs when applied to a range of unsteady flow problems.
Proceedings Article

Deep Dynamical Modeling and Control of Unsteady Fluid Flows

TL;DR: The proposed approach, grounded in Koopman theory, is shown to produce stable dynamical models that can predict the time evolution of the cylinder system over extended time horizons and is able to find a straightforward, interpretable control law for suppressing vortex shedding in the wake of the cylinders.
Journal ArticleDOI

On the identification of symmetric quadrature rules for finite element methods

TL;DR: A methodology for the identification of symmetric quadrature rules inside of quadrilaterals, triangles, tetrahedra, prisms, pyramids, and hexahedra is described and many of the rules appear to be new, and an improvement over those tabulated in the literature.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Towards green aviation with python at petascale

TL;DR: Application of PyFR, a Python based computational fluid dynamics solver, to petascale simulation of unsteady turbulent flow is demonstrated, and a range of software innovations will be detailed, including use of runtime code generation, which enables PyFR to efficiently target multiple platforms, including heterogeneous systems, via a single implementation.
