Space-time methods ================== WS 2023/2024 Lecturer: Wick/Fischer/Roth Leibniz University Hannover, Institute of Applied Mathematics Format: 2+1 (90 minutes lecture per week; 45 minutes exercise per week) Times: Thu 17:15 - 18:45 Place: Room C311 First lecture: Oct 12, 2023 Last lecture: Jan 25, 2024 Summary ======= This lecture is devoted to space-time finite element methods. First, we concentrate on formulations, numerical modeling and their discretization. Therein, the focus is on space-time finite element discretizations with discontinuous Galerkin (dG) methods in time and continuous Galerkin (cG) schemes in space. The governing concepts of the numerical solution will be introduced as well. Afterward, we dive into concepts of goal-oriented error control and adaptivity. We finish with current developments of space-time goal-oriented error-controlled adaptivity applied to model order reduction. Note ==== The main focus of this course is on the computer-based numerical solution of time-dependent partial differential equations in space-time. Prototypical applications include the heat, wave, elastodynamics or Navier-Stokes equations. Please do not confuse this course with a physics lecture on special or general relativity.
