11th international conference on numerical methods in fluid dynamics. (Proceedings of the conference held in Williamsburg, Virginia, June 27- July 1, 1988) (English)
[The articles of this volume will not be indexed individually.] The proceedings contain 103 papers, 7 of which are based on invited lectures. These begin with a personal view of computational fluid dynamics by \textit{M. Y. Hussaini}, in which he identifies the two themes of the subject as engineering applications to provide reliable engineering predictions, and scientific investigations to elucidate fluid phenomena hard to obtain in the laboratory. \textit{K. V. Brushlinsky} reviews computational models in plasma dynamics, particularly work in the Soviet Union. Enhancements possible with parallel computing are described by \textit{Tsutomu Hoshino}, and the computation of flow fields associated with hypersonic, airbreathing aircraft are discussed by \textit{Ajay Kumar}, who also shows by example the impact of good graphics. A survey is made of multigrid methods for the steady-state incompressible Navier-Stokes equations by \textit{J. Linden}, \textit{G. Lonsdale}, \textit{B. Steckel}, and \textit{K. Stüben}, and upwind differencing techniques are surveyed by \textit{P. L. Roe}. The invited section concludes with a description by \textit{R. Temam} of new algorithms for the solution of the incompressible, unsteady Navier-Stokes equations over large time intervals. As can be seen from the titles, the invited papers lean towards the second of the two themes identified by Hussaini, and the same is true for the contributed papers. Most types of fluid flow are represented in these papers, including inviscid or viscous, incompressible or compressible, with or without shocks, laminar or turbulent, subsonic, transonic, supersonic, or hypersonic, and so on. Anyone working, or considering working in computational fluid dynamics can expect to find at least some papers of interest.
