ABSTRACT:


During the last decade, provably stable high order methods for initial-boundary-
value-problems have been developed. The stability is due to the use of so-called
Summation-By-Parts (SBP) operators , penalty techniques for implementing boundary
and interface conditions using Simultaneous Approximation Terms (SAT), and the
energy method for proving stability.

In this talk we will present SBP-SAT technique and relate it to the approximated
initial-boundary-value-problem.

In particular we will discuss the coupling of incompressible and compressible
Navier-Stokes equations, encapsulation techniques for difference operators on
curvilinear grids, inflow boundary conditions for internal flow calculations,
provably stable filtering techniques and multigrid methods for hyperbolic problems.

Applications can be found in aeronautics, weather prediction, oceanography and
all kinds of problems involving signal and sound propagation.
