Wavelet Methods in Computational Fluid Dynamics

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: ICASE/NASA LaRC Series ((ICASE/NASA))

Abstract

We discuss in this paper the numerical solution of boundary value problems for partial differential equations by methods relying on compactly supported wavelet approximations. After defining compactly supported wavelets and stating their main properties we discuss their application to boundary value problems for partial differential equations, giving a particular attention to the treatment of the boundary conditions. Finally, we discuss application of wavelets to the solution of the Navier-Stokes equations for incompressible viscous fluids.
