Computational Fluid Dynamics And Magnetohydrodynamics

Numerical simulations of various problems in space physics, astrophysics, engineering, and plasma dynamics. Finite-volume and finite-difference, shock-capturing and shock-fitting methods for hyperbolic equations, including gas dynamics, MHD, and shallow water equations. The hierarchy of numerical methods is introduced in a systematic way, starting from standard linear schemes and arriving at modern discontinuity-capturing non- linear methods.
