Foil 3 Further Remarks on CPS713 Case Study II) Computational Fluid Dynamics and Numerical Relativity

From Overview of CFD and Numerical Relativity Case Study CPSP713 -- Autumn Semester 1994. by Geoffrey C. Fox


1 Our numerical relativity example will be the collision of two black holes which is focus of a major NSF Grand Challenge involving NPAC with seven other institutions in a collaboration led by Richard Matzner at Texas.
2 Note that Numerical Relativity involves solution of Einstein's equations which include as a special case Maxwell's equations used to describe electromagnetic phenomena.
3 Thus issues of relevance to computational electromagnetics (used in study of antennas and radar cross-sections of military aircraft) are implicitly included in this case study.
4 Nearly all partial differential equations which are commonly encountered can be found by choosing parameters or limits in CFD or NR.
