Title: "Stable Discretization and Robust Preconditioner for Some Multi-physics Models"

Abstract:

After some brief introduction to advanced iterative methods for large scale linear algebraic systems, I will present some stable discretizations and robust preconditioners for complex fluids models and Navier-Stokes equations coupled with elasticity equations. I will then give some theoretical analysis and numerical examples of these methods.
