*********************************
Euler equations, in [...]conservation form: continuity equation, momentum equation, energy equation. “Short form†of the full Euler equations using vector notation, and the analogy with the 1D convection equation that allows us to use the same schemes that we have been studying thus far.

*********************************
Burgers’ equation [...]debrief—What happens with MacCormack method? Watch out for the possibility of over-shoots destroying stability! As you decrease CFL number, there are more dispersive oscillations. Among these schemes, which is best? Lax-Friedrichs, Lax-Wendroff, MacCormack? When solving Burgers’ equation with the implicit Beam & Warming method, you use the Thomas algorithm to solve a tri-diagonal system. If you use a source like Wikipedia for the Thomas algorithm, watch out! We have boundary conditions ...

*********************************
Burgers’ equation [...]debrief—Review of the discretization in conservative form. For hyperbolic equations, we have ‘strong solutions’ and ‘weak solutions’; the conservarive form lets us obtain weak solutions (e.g., shocks). What happens with the Lax-Friedrichs scheme? It is a first-order scheme and exhibits numerical diffusion; stability requires CFL less than 1 (defining CFL number with the maximum value of velocity)f. With different CFL numbers, we see more numerical diffusion as the CFL number is decreased and the quality of the solution deteriorates. Note that there is cancellation of errors with CFL=2 and the solution is exact! (similarly to the linear convection example with CFL=1.) With the Lax-Wendroff scheme, which is second order, we see dispersion errors; with different CFL numbers, we see more oscillations as CFL decreases.

Digital Pedagogy in Three Parts - Prof Barba at the BU CEIT Instructional Innovation Conference
NEW ! (August 2014) Prof. Barba is teaching a MOOC titled "Practical Numerical Methods with Python." Check it out:
http://openedx.seas.gwu.edu/courses/GW/MAE6286/2014_fall/about
*********************************
The digital pedagogy in my [...]course titled “Bio-aerial Locomotion†stands on a tripod. One leg is class presentation, recording and online dissemination. The second leg is a course blog, with student assignments publicly available online. The third leg is a program of distinguished invited speakers participating in the course via Skype.
The course is one of a set of ten modules in the College of Engineering’s offerings under the Introduction to Engineering umbrella. All incoming freshmen choose two modules, with topics varying from mechanical design, photonics, biomedical engineering environments, among others. This module is aimed at motivating the subject of bio-inspired engineering through the study of the way animals move in the air by either falling, gliding, or flying.

*********************************
Spectral analysis of numerical [...]schemes III — Analysis of Lax-Friedrichs: amplitudes strongly damped for smaller values of CFL number; no diffusion error at phase angle=180º explains odd-even decoupling (error oscillation of wavelength 2 mesh widths); dispersion error always greater than 1 (leading phase error). Analysis Lax-Wendroff: large range of phase angles with very low diffusion error; dispersion error mostly lagging type. Analysis of leapfrog: it has no diffusion errors (i.e., leapfrog scheme is particularly useful in long-term simulations, e.g., long weather forecasts); dispersion error is of lagging type; neutral stability can cause problems, as high-frequency errors will not be damped. Leaprog is not recommended for high-speed flows where shocks can occur! Presentation of the explicit Beam-Warming method, using second-order backward-difference (upwind) scheme. Analysis of Beam-Warming: wide region of accuracy with respect to diffusion error; dispersion error greater than one (oscillations move ahead of solution). Final note: a key quantity is the number of mesh points per wavelength.
