...solvers and solution strategies are crucial for efficient simulation. While many standard methods are used across disciplines, their design, optimization, and implementation must be tailored to the underlying physics, the coupling of subsystems, and the relevant time scales. Developing new and effective...
Historical background Our engagement with surface water and flooding events dates back to the early 2000s and originates from mathematical research on high-resolution schemes for hyperbolic conservation and balance laws conducted by our current research manager before joining SINTEF. In 2003, we initiated...
