Therefore, in writing this book, beyond the description of the algorithms, I have also tried to provide information on the mathematical and computational, as well as implementational characteristics of the methods. The book contains three parts. The first is intended to present the fun­ damentals of the Fourier and Chebyshev methods for the solution of differ­ ential problems. The second part is entirely devoted to the solution of the N avier-Stokes equations, considered in vorticity-streamfunction and velocity-pressure formulations. The third part is concerned with the so­ lution of stiff and singular problems, and with the domain decomposition method. In writing this book, lowe a great debt to the joint contribution of several people to whom I wish to express my deep gratitude. First, I express my friendly thanks to L. Sirovich, editor of the series "Applied Mathematical Sciences," who suggested that I write the book. Many thanks are also addressed to my colleagues and former students who contributed to the completion of the book in various ways. I am happy to thank P. Bontoux, O. Botella, J.A. Desideri, U. Ehrenstein, M.Y. Forestier, J. Frohlich, S.

This book collects the lecture notes concerning the IUTAM School on Advanced Turbulent Flow Computations held at CISM in Udine September 7–11, 1998. The course was intended for scientists, engineers and post-graduate students interested in the application of advanced numerical techniques for simulating turbulent flows. The topic comprises two closely connected main subjects: modelling and computation, mesh pionts necessary to simulate complex turbulent flow.

In developing this book, we decided to emphasize applications and to provide methods for solving problems. As a result, we limited the mathematical devel­ opments and we tried as far as possible to get insight into the behavior of numerical methods by considering simple mathematical models. The text contains three sections. The first is intended to give the fundamen­ tals of most types of numerical approaches employed to solve fluid-mechanics problems. The topics of finite differences, finite elements, and spectral meth­ ods are included, as well as a number of special techniques. The second section is devoted to the solution of incompressible flows by the various numerical approaches. We have included solutions of laminar and turbulent-flow prob­ lems using finite difference, finite element, and spectral methods. The third section of the book is concerned with compressible flows. We divided this last section into inviscid and viscous flows and attempted to outline the methods for each area and give examples.
