The Mass-Conserving Level-Set method combines the efficiency of a Level-Set algorithm with the mass conserving properties of the Volume Of Fluid method. It avoids the work intensive interface construction of the former method and imposes a mass-conserving correction to the distance function of the latter. The interface capturing algorithm...

The demand for large FE meshes increases as parallel computing becomes the standard in FE simulations. Direct and iterative solution methods are used to solve the resulting linear systems. Many applications concern composite materials, which are characterized by large discontinuities in the material properties. An example of such a material is...

We present an implementation of Two-Level Preconditioned Conjugate Gradient Method for the GPU. We investigate a Truncated Neumann Series based preconditioner in combination with deflation and compare it with Block Incomplete Cholesky schemes. This combination exhibits fine-grain parallelism and hence we gain considerably in execution time. It’s...

Despite their geometric flexibility and high accuracy, an important drawback of Discontinuous Galerkin (DG) methods is that the resulting linear systems cannot be solved efficiently by standard iterative solution methods. In search of an effective preconditioning strategy for these systems, we cast a uniform spectral two-level preconditioner...

Large discontinuities in material properties, such as encountered in composite materials, lead to ill-conditioned systems of linear equations. These discontinuities give rise to small eigenvalues that may negatively affect the convergence of iterative solution methods such as the Preconditioned Conjugate Gradient (PCG) method. This paper...

This report gives an overview of the development and experiences of using Mumie [1] at TU Delft during the academic year 2010-2011. Mumie is an e-learning platform that can be used for mathematical courses and acquired the interest of TU Delft at the beginning of 2009 in order to be used in their first years mathematical courses, in particular...

In this document the Mumie pilot that took place in March 2010 for the Linear Algebra course (wi1403lr) at Aerospace Engineering will be evaluated. This pilot is the result of an interest in using an e-learning platform that can improve the level of education for first year mathematical courses at TU Delft. In order to be successful with such...

The inexact Newton method is widely used to solve systems of non-linear equations. It is well-known that forcing terms should be chosen relatively large at the start of the process, and be made smaller during the iteration process. This paper explores the mechanics behind this behavior theoretically using a simplified problem, and presents...

Biogrout is a new method for soil reinforcement, which is based on microbialinduced carbonate precipitation. Bacteria and reactants are flushed through the soil, resulting in calcium carbonate precipitation and consequent soil reinforcement. Bacteria are crucially important in the Biogrout process since they catalyse the reaction. Hence, to...

Current and future developments in the power system industry demand fast power flow solvers for larger power flow problems. The established methods are no longer viable for such problems, as they are not scalable in the problem size. In this paper, the use of Newton-Krylov power flow methods is proposed, and a multitude of preconditioning...

Many applications in computational science and engineering concern composite materials, which are characterized by large discontinuities in the material properties. Such applications require fine-scale finite-element meshes, which lead to large linear systems that are challenging to solve with current direct and iterative solutions algorithms....

In the last decade many multi class kinematic wave (MCKW) traffic ow models have been proposed. MCKW models introduce heterogeneity among vehicles and drivers. For example, they take into account differences in (maximum) velocities and driving style. Nevertheless, the models are macroscopic and the ow is modeled as a continuum flow, without...

The present work explores the massively parallel capabilities of the most advanced architecture of graphics processing units (GPUs) code named “Fermi”, on a two-dimensional unstructured cell-centred finite volume code. We use the SIMPLE algorithm to solve the continuity and momentum equations that was fully ported to the GPU. The benefits of...

This paper deals with fast and reliable numerical solution methods for the incompressible non-Newtonian Navier-Stokes equations. To handle the nonlinearity of the governing equations, the Picard and Newton methods are used to linearize these coupled partial differential equations. For space discretization we use the finite element method and...
