The Piecewise Parabolic Method (PPM) for Gas Dynamical Simulations
Phillip Colella,Paul R. Woodward +1 more
TL;DR: This work recognizes the need for additional dissipation in any higher-order Godunov method of this type, and introduces it in such a way so as not to degrade the quality of the results.
Journal ArticleDOI
The aerodynamics of insect flight
TL;DR: The basic physical principles underlying flapping flight in insects, results of recent experiments concerning the aerodynamics of insect flight, as well as the different approaches used to model these phenomena are reviewed.

A low-diffusion flux-splitting scheme for Navier-Stokes calculations
TL;DR: In this article, the development of a new flux-splitting approach for perfect-gas reacting-gas Navier-Stokes computations is presented, which is designed to capture a stationary contact discontinuity without excess numerical diffusion while providing a monotone resolution of strong normal shock waves.
Journal ArticleDOI
An immersed boundary method for complex incompressible flows
TL;DR: An immersed boundary method for time-dependent, three-dimensional, incompressible flows is presented, and the predictions show good agreement with previous computational and experimental results.
