High-Order Methods for Incompressible Fluid Flow

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an approach for approximating the Stokes and Navier-Stokes equations for elliptic problems with respect to orthogonal polynomials and discrete transforms.
Journal ArticleDOI

An Overlapping Schwarz Method for Spectral Element Solution of the Incompressible Navier-Stokes Equations

TL;DR: A finite element-based additive Schwarz preconditioner using overlapping subdomains plus a coarse grid projection operator which is applied directly to the pressure on the interior Gauss points can yield as much as a fivefold reduction in simulation time over previously employed methods based upon deflation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Direct Numerical Simulation of Turbulent Pipe Flow at Moderately High Reynolds Numbers

TL;DR: In this paper, a high-order spectral element method was used to study the flow of an incompressible viscous fluid in a smooth circular pipe of radius R and axial length 25R in the turbulent flow regime at four different friction Reynolds numbers Reτ = 180, 360, 550 and 1\text{,}000.
Journal ArticleDOI

Wall-induced forces on a rigid sphere at finite Reynolds number

TL;DR: In this article, a spectral element method is employed to perform the simulations of a rigid sphere translating parallel to a flat wall in an otherwise quiescent ambient fluid, and the effect of the wall on the onset of unsteadiness is explored.
