t8code – the open-source library for extremely efficient simulations with adaptive grids

t8code is a software library for efficient management of dynamic adaptive grids and data on them.Any simulation software that uses grids can benefit from t8code as a plugin, because it supports and enhances various simulation applications. t8code is very general-purpose because it supports just about any grid needed by numerical simulation software.
t8code is a C/C++ library to manage parallel adaptive meshes with various element types. t8code uses a collection (a forest) of multiple connected adaptive space-trees in parallel and scales to at least one million MPI ranks and over 1 Trillion mesh elements.
Finite Element and Finite Volume Methods for Heat Transfer and Fluid Dynamics
By J. N. Reddy; N. K. Anand; P. Roy , Introduces the two most common numerical methods for heat transfer and fluid dynamics equations, using clear and accessible language. This unique approach covers all necessary mathematical preliminaries at the beginning of the book for the reader to sail smoothly through the chapters. Students will work step-by-step through the most common benchmark heat transfer and fluid dynamics problems, firmly grounding themselves in how the governing equations are discretized, how boundary conditions are imposed
Lewis Fry Richardson
(11 October 1881 – 30 September 1953) was an English mathematician, physicist, meteorologist, psychologist and pacifist who pioneered modern mathematical techniques of weather forecasting.
Born into a prosperous Quaker family Richardson was the youngest of seven children. He began his education at Newcastle Preparatory School, and at the age of 12 was sent to York to attend the Quaker boarding school Bootham School.

(more…)Finite Difference Method
The Finite Difference Method (FDM) is an Eulerian method that involves approximating the derivative of a function using finite differences. It relies on a previously defined spatial discrete mesh of nodes. The starting point is the Newton-Raphson method, where the derivative of the function at a point equals the slope of the tangent line to the function (curve) at that point.
