A parallel adaptive Vlasov solver based on hierarchical finite element interpolation

摘要

We present a parallel adaptive scheme for the Vlasov equation. Our method is based on a way of reducing dependencies between data, thanks to a hierarchical finite element interpolation approach. A specific data distribution pattern yields an efficient implementation. Numerical results are exhibited for a classical beam simulation in the ID phase space. (c) 2005 Published by Elsevier B.V.
