Topics include: finite volume and finite element approximations; overview of turbulence models, including Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS), Large Eddy Simulation (LES), and Variational Multi-Scale (VMS); time-marching schemes; methods to solve system of linear equations (e.g. GMRES, Conjugate Gradient); grid generation and adaptation; and post-processing of the solution using VisIt and ParaView. Also includes an introduction to parallel computing.
