A method for computing the numerical solution of Vlasov type equations on massively parallel computers is presented. In contrast with Particle In Cell methods which are known to be noisy, the method is based on a semi-Lagrangian algorithm that approaches the Vlasov equation on a grid of phase space.

A parallel solver based on domain decomposition is presented for the solution of large algebraic systems arising in the finite element discretization of mechanical problems. It is hybrid in the sense that it combines a direct factorization of the local subdomain problems with an iterative treatment
Industries in general and automotive industries in particular, use Finite Element Analysis (FEA) for better solutions to the engineering problems they encounter. The reliability of the Finite Element method can be improved to a larger extent by Adaptive Finite Element Analysis (AFEA). As we look tow
We present a novel approach to automatic adaptivity in higher-order finite element methods (hp-FEM) which is free of analytical error estimates. This means that a computer code based on this approach can be used to solve adaptively a wide range of PDE problems. A posteriori error estimation is done
