Computational Problem:

Large-scale 3D transport phenomenon arising in fluid mechanics and porous media applications. My current work involves parallel simulation of such processes coupled with adaptive mesh techniques.


Abstract

My current research is focused on coupling adaptive meshing techniques with large-scale parallel computing platforms for efficiently simulating coupled transport processes. I am currently using PETSC for solving sparse linear systems in parallel. I feel that this workshop will be an excellent opportunity for me to learn more about PETSC and other ACTS tools. with drag
