NCM Workshop on Numerical Methods for PDE

The workshop will be held during 16–27 December 2024 at IIPE, Visakhapatnam.

I will be giving some lectures on Discontinuous Galerkin methods for conservation laws. This page gives some resources for attending these lectures.

Codes for lectures

The codes will be written in C++ using deal.II library. The codes can be read here: fem

Download them using git

git clone https://github.com/cpraveen/fem

Many of these codes are still being made and updated, so you should download them frequently to get the latest version. E.g., using git

cd fem
git pull

The DG codes are in the sub-directories dg1d and dg2d. See the readme files and follow the instructions.

For optimal experience, use Linux or MacOS; if you are on Windows, then you must install WSL, and install/work inside that.

You must have deal.II installed and working in order to run these codes. Instructions on how to install are given here

For most users, it is recommended to use Docker or the “Automated installation” process. Expert users can consider installation using spack.

If you use Docker, you can also install deal.II through that which gives you a full installation of deal.II with all external dependencies.
