IMEX Methods: Attempts to get the best from Implicit and Explicit Methods Mathematisches Kolloquium Referent: Prof. Dr. Willem Hundsdorfer, CWI Amsterdam Raum: S2 14 / 24 Zuvor findet um 16.45 Uhr die Teerunde in Raum 244 des Mathematikgebäudes, Schlossgartenstr. 7, statt.Abstract:
In this talk numerical methods are discussed for solving hyperbolic differential equations with stiff relaxation terms. It will be seen that explicit time-step methods are more suited for hyperbolic equations with large solution gradients than implicit methods. On the other hand, stiff terms should be treated explicitly. Implicit and explicit methods can be combined in the so-called IMEX methods. The question is: do we then combine the advantages of the methods or their disadvantages? |
