Front Tracking and the Interaction of Nonlinear Waves
Abstract
The research program has emphasized innovative computations and theory. The computations and theory support and enhance each other. A coherent approach was used which depends upon abstracting important mathematical concepts and computational methods from individual applications to a wide range of applications involving complex continua, including wave refractions, flows in elastic and plastic media, and complex fluid mixing. Adaptive computational methods were developed for flows with discontinuities and implemented on modern parallel computers.
