Convergence of discrete adjoints

Posted July 6, 2010 at 12:12 by praveen (CFD, Numerical Analysis, Scientific Computing)

Interesting result on discrete adjoints: They show that discrete adjoint for scalar conservation law converges pointwise everywhere except at shocks, provided the numerical dissipation increases as the grid is refined. The number of points across the shock must increase as the grid is refined.

List of threads useful for building OpenFOAM and other Third Party tools

Posted April 8, 2010 at 14:05 by wyldckat
Updated December 8, 2013 at 09:37 by wyldckat (Added a few more links...)

Well, I've been meaning to this for a while now, so here goes - This a list of threads that could prove useful to new comers to OpenFOAM on how to build it as well as the Third Party tools.

Keep in mind:
  • That this isn't going to answer all of the questions you might have, but should help you with the more usual issues you might have.
  • The solution you seek might only come along after reading most of the thread each link points to.

Due to blog post constraint to 10000...

Open Foam for Mold Flow analysis

Posted March 20, 2010 at 10:12 by KyleL (Injection Molding applications for OpenFoam)

Hello all and welcome to my blog.

It appears to me after going through most of the tutorials that Open Foam is the ideal candidate for an open source mold flow analysis tool.
Open Foam is a very powerful, robust C++ library for computational programming.I see no reason why Open Foam can not be just as popular as the bigger names,i.e. MOLDFLOW & FLOW-3Din injection moulding, and even easier to use.The best benefit would be the support of the open source community and our willingness...
