Sergei K. Godunov
Sergei Konstantinovich Godunov (russian: Серге́й Константи́нович Годуно́в; born July 17, 1929) is a Soviet and Russian professor at the Sobolev Institute of Mathematics of the Russian Academy of Sciences in Novosibirsk, Russia. Biography Godunov's most influential work is in the area of applied and numerical mathematics, particularly in the development of methodologies used in Computational Fluid Dynamics ( CFD) and other computational fields. Godunov's theorem (Godunov, 1959) (also known as Godunov's order barrier theorem) : ''Linear numerical schemes for solving partial differential equations, having the property of not generating new extrema (a monotone scheme), can be at most first-order accurate''. Godunov's scheme is a conservative numerical scheme for solving partial differential equations. In this method, the conservative variables are considered as piecewise constant over the mesh cells at each time step and the time evolution is determined by ...

Moscow
Moscow ( , US chiefly ; rus, links=no, Москва, r=Moskva, p=mɐskˈva, a=Москва.ogg) is the capital and largest city of Russia. The city stands on the Moskva River in Central Russia, with a population estimated at 13.0 million residents within the city limits, over 17 million residents in the urban area, and over 21.5 million residents in the metropolitan area. The city covers an area of , while the urban area covers , and the metropolitan area covers over . Moscow is among the world's largest cities; being the most populous city entirely in Europe, the largest urban and metropolitan area in Europe, and the largest city by land area on the European continent. First documented in 1147, Moscow grew to become a prosperous and powerful city that served as the capital of the Grand Duchy that bears its name. When the Grand Duchy of Moscow evolved into the Tsardom of Russia, Moscow remained the political and economic center for most of the Tsardom's history. When th ...

Riemann Problem
A Riemann problem, named after Bernhard Riemann, is a specific initial value problem composed of a conservation equation together with piecewise constant initial data which has a single discontinuity in the domain of interest. The Riemann problem is very useful for the understanding of equations like Euler conservation equations because all properties, such as shocks and rarefaction waves, appear as characteristics in the solution. It also gives an exact solution to some complex nonlinear equations, such as the Euler equations. In numerical analysis, Riemann problems appear in a natural way in finite volume methods for the solution of conservation law equations due to the discreteness of the grid. For that it is widely used in computational fluid dynamics and in computational magnetohydrodynamics simulations. In these fields, Riemann problems are calculated using Riemann solvers. The Riemann problem in linearized gas dynamics As a simple example, we investigate the properties of ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Matematicheskii Sbornik
''Matematicheskii Sbornik'' (russian: Математический сборник, abbreviated ''Mat. Sb.'') is a peer reviewed Russian mathematical journal founded by the Moscow Mathematical Society in 1866. It is the oldest successful Russian mathematical journal. The English translation is ''Sbornik: Mathematics''. It is also sometimes cited under the alternative name ''Izdavaemyi Moskovskim Matematicheskim Obshchestvom'' or its French translation ''Recueil mathématique de la Société mathématique de Moscou'', but the name ''Recueil mathématique'' is also used for an unrelated journal, '' Mathesis''. Yet another name, ''Sovetskii Matematiceskii Sbornik'', was listed in a statement in the journal in 1931 apologizing for the former editorship of Dmitri Egorov, who had been recently discredited for his religious views; however, this name was never actually used by the journal. The first editor of the journal was Nikolai Brashman, who died before its first issue (dedicated to hi ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Upwind Scheme
In computational physics, the term upwind scheme (sometimes advection scheme) ''typically'' refers to a class of numerical discretization methods for solving hyperbolic partial differential equations, in which so-called upstream variables are used to calculate the derivatives in a flow field. That is, derivatives are estimated using a set of data points biased to be more "upwind" of the query point, with respect to the direction of the flow. Historically, the origin of upwind methods can be traced back to the work of Courant, Isaacson, and Rees who proposed the CIR method. Model equation To illustrate the method, consider the following one-dimensional linear advection equation : \frac + a \frac = 0 which describes a wave propagating along the x-axis with a velocity a. This equation is also a mathematical model for one-dimensional linear advection. Consider a typical grid point i in the domain. In a one-dimensional domain, there are only two directions associated with point i – l ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Total Variation Diminishing
In numerical methods, total variation diminishing (TVD) is a property of certain discretization schemes used to solve hyperbolic partial differential equations. The most notable application of this method is in computational fluid dynamics. The concept of TVD was introduced by Ami Harten. Model equation In systems described by partial differential equations, such as the following hyperbolic advection equation, :\frac + a\frac = 0, the total variation (TV) is given by :TV(u(\cdot,t)) = \int \left, \frac \ \mathrmx , and the total variation for the discrete case is, :TV(u^n) = TV(u(\cdot,t^n)) = \sum_j \left, u_^n - u_j^n \ . where u_^n=u(x_,t^n). A numerical method is said to be total variation diminishing (TVD) if, :TV \left( u^\right) \leq TV \left( u^\right) . Characteristics A numerical scheme is said to be monotonicity preserving if the following properties are maintained: *If u^ is monotonically increasing (or decreasing) in space, then so is u^. proved the follow ...

Riemann Solver
A Riemann solver is a numerical method used to solve a Riemann problem. They are heavily used in computational fluid dynamics and computational magnetohydrodynamics. Definition Generally speaking, Riemann solvers are specific methods for computing the numerical flux across a discontinuity in the Riemann problem. They form an important part of high-resolution schemes; typically the right and left states for the Riemann problem are calculated using some form of nonlinear reconstruction, such as a flux limiter or a WENO method, and then used as the input for the Riemann solver. Exact solvers Sergei K. Godunov is credited with introducing the first exact Riemann solver for the Euler equations, by extending the previous CIR (Courant-Isaacson-Rees) method to non-linear systems of hyperbolic conservation laws. Modern solvers are able to simulate relativistic effects and magnetic fields. More recent research shows that an exact series solution to the Riemann problem exists, which may c ...

Mikhail Lavrentyev
Mikhail Alekseevich Lavrentyev (or Lavrentiev, russian: Михаи́л Алексе́евич Лавре́нтьев) (November 19, 1900 – October 15, 1980) was a Soviet Union, Soviet mathematician and hydrodynamics, hydrodynamicist. Early years Lavrentiev was born in Kazan, where his father was an instructor at a college (he later became a professor at Kazan University, then Moscow University). Lavrentiev entered Kazan University, and, when his family moved to Moscow in 1921, he transferred to the Department of Physics and Mathematics of Moscow University. He graduated in 1922. He continued his studies in the university in 1923-26 as a graduate student of Nikolai Luzin. Although Luzin was alleged to plagiarize in science and indulge in anti-Sovietism by some of his students in 1936, Lavrentiev did not participate in the notorious political persecution of his teacher which is known as the Nikolai Luzin#The Luzin affair of 1936, Luzin case or Nikolai Luzin#The Luzin affair of 19 ...
