[BOOK][B] Implementing spectral methods for partial differential equations: Algorithms for scientists and engineers

DA Kopriva - 2009 - books.google.com
This book explains how to solve partial differential equations numerically using single and
multidomain spectral methods. It shows how only a few fundamental algorithms form the …

A conservative staggered-grid Chebyshev multidomain method for compressible flows

DA Kopriva, JH Kolias - Journal of computational physics, 1996 - Elsevier
We present a new multidomain spectral collocation method that uses a staggered grid for the
solution of compressible flow problems. The solution unknowns are defined at the nodes of …

A staggered-grid multidomain spectral method for the compressible Navier–Stokes equations

DA Kopriva - Journal of computational physics, 1998 - Elsevier
We present a flexible, non-conforming staggered-grid Chebyshev spectral multidomain method
for the solution of the compressible Navier–Stokes equations. In this method, subdomain …

Split form nodal discontinuous Galerkin schemes with summation-by-parts property for the compressible Euler equations

GJ Gassner, AR Winters, DA Kopriva - Journal of Computational Physics, 2016 - Elsevier
Fisher and Carpenter (2013) [12] found a remarkable equivalence of general diagonal norm
high-order summation-by-parts operators to a subcell based high-order finite volume …

A conservative staggered-grid Chebyshev multidomain method for compressible flows. II. A semi-structured method

DA Kopriva - Journal of computational physics, 1996 - Elsevier
We present a Chebyshev multidomain method that can solve systems of hyperbolic equations
in conservation form on an unrestricted quadrilateral subdivision of a domain. Within each …

Metric identities and the discontinuous spectral element method on curvilinear meshes

DA Kopriva - Journal of Scientific Computing, 2006 - Springer
We study how to approximate the metric terms that arise in the discontinuous spectral
element (DSEM) approximation of hyperbolic systems of conservation laws when the element …

Computation of electromagnetic scattering with a non‐conforming discontinuous spectral element method

DA Kopriva, SL Woodruff… - International journal for …, 2002 - Wiley Online Library
In this paper we solve electromagnetic scattering problems by approximating Maxwell's
equations in the time‐domain with a high‐order quadrilateral discontinuous spectral element …

A comparison of the dispersion and dissipation errors of Gauss and Gauss–Lobatto discontinuous Galerkin spectral element methods

G Gassner, DA Kopriva - SIAM Journal on Scientific Computing, 2011 - SIAM
We examine the dispersion and dissipation properties of the Gauss and Gauss–Lobatto
discontinuous Galerkin spectral element methods (DGSEMs), for linear wave propagation …

On the quadrature and weak form choices in collocation type discontinuous Galerkin spectral element methods

DA Kopriva, G Gassner - Journal of Scientific Computing, 2010 - Springer
We examine four nodal versions of tensor product discontinuous Galerkin spectral element
approximations to systems of conservation laws for quadrilateral or hexahedral meshes. …
