Implicit-explicit Runge--Kutta schemes for hyperbolic systems and kinetic equations in the diffusion limit

S Boscarino, L Pareschi, G Russo - SIAM Journal on Scientific Computing, 2013‏ - SIAM
We consider implicit-explicit (IMEX) Runge--Kutta (RK) schemes for hyperbolic systems with
stiff relaxation in the so-called diffusion limit. In such a regime the system relaxes towards a …

Large time step and asymptotic preserving numerical schemes for the gas dynamics equations with source terms

C Chalons, M Girardin, S Kokh - SIAM Journal on Scientific Computing, 2013‏ - SIAM
We propose large time step and asymptotic preserving schemes for the gas dynamics
equations with external forces and friction terms. By asymptotic preserving, we mean that the …

Well-balanced or asymptotic preserving schemes are receiving an increasing amount of
interest. This paper gives a precise setting for studying both properties in the case of Euler …

High-order asymptotic-preserving methods for fully nonlinear relaxation problems

S Boscarino, PG LeFloch, G Russo - SIAM Journal on Scientific Computing, 2014‏ - SIAM
We study solutions to nonlinear hyperbolic systems with fully nonlinear relaxation terms in
the limit of, both, infinitely stiff relaxation and arbitrary late time. In this limit, the dynamics is …

Asymptotic-preserving Monte Carlo methods for transport equations in the diffusive limit

We develop a new Monte Carlo method that solves hyperbolic transport equations with stiff
terms, characterized by a (small) scaling parameter. In particular, we focus on systems which …

A realizability-preserving discontinuous Galerkin method for the M1 model of radiative transfer

E Olbrant, CD Hauck, M Frank - Journal of Computational Physics, 2012‏ - Elsevier
The M1 model for radiative transfer coupled to a material energy equation in planar
geometry is studied in this paper. For this model to be well-posed, its moment variables must …
