In this workshop we wish to share experiences on application of time-stepping techniques, for example parallel time integration, encapsulation of time integration and implicit time integration. As before the format of the on-line workshop will involve a series of 3 short 15-minutes talks followed by a group discussions and a summary session. The event’s programme […]

Congratulations to PRISM’s Principal Investigator Prof. Spencer Sherwin (Imperial College London) for being awarded a 2020 ECCOMAS Prandtl medal. The Prandtl Medal is awarded for outstanding and sustained contributions to the area of computational fluid dynamics. ECCOMAS, the European Community on Computational Methods in Applied Sciences, is a scientific organization grouping together European associations with interests […]
Learn MoreIn a gas turbine engine, the pressure expansion through the high- and low-pressure turbines (LPT) is achieved in a number of subsequent stages. The interaction of multiple stages of rotors and stators is a crucial source of deterministic unsteadiness which has repercussions on the loss production mechanisms, and it is thus of great importance to […]
Learn MoreImplementation of high-performance GPU kernels in Nektar++ Due to the recent evolution of high performance computing hardware from single-core central processing units (CPUs) to multi-core CPUs and the emergence of general purpose graphics processing units (GPGPUs or short GPUs), these shared memory systems are now characterised by a high degree of parallelism. They also possess […]
Learn MoreDate: Wed, 30 September 2020, 14:00 – 16:00 Summary: Beyond CFD: In this workshop we wish to share experiences on application of PDE solvers which go beyond CFD tools, for example composable solvers, stability analysis, inverse problems, data assimilation and uncertainty quantification. The format of the on-line workshop will involve a series of 3 short […]
Learn MoreResearch Software Engineering and PRISM Photo by Glenn Carstens-Peters on Unsplash The PRISM platform is characterised by its group of advanced scientific research software and the teams that build and maintain this software. Software engineering expertise is therefore a significant part of PRISM. The term Research Software Engineering or RSE is becoming increasingly common within the research community. Indeed, the […]
Learn MoreWe are delighted to announce that Prof Piggotty, PRISM Co-I, has been successful in being awarded the following EPSRC grants: EPSRC Impact Acceleration award “Multi-scale adjoint-enabled modelling to improve operational storm surge forecasting at the Flood Forecasting Centre (FFC) and support the wider modelling community” funded for 12 months to work on translational impact activities […]
Learn MoreAn EPSRC Impact Acceleration grant was awarded to Co-I Colin Cotter to fund a research associate (Dr Jack Betteridge) for six months from October 1 2019 to March 30 2020 to accelerate the impact of EPSRC-funded research (through the Mathematics of Planet Earth Centre for Doctoral Training) on hybridisable implicit solvers for atmospheric dynamical cores […]
Learn MorePRISM workshop on best practices for software training and workshops: Exploring online teaching in a post-pandemic era! Date: 21st May 2020 Location: on-line Summary: In this workshop we wish to share experiences and best practices on the use of workshops and tutorials for the PRISM related software. In light of the currently changes due to […]
Learn MoreIntroduction Nektar++ is a sophisticated computational fluid dynamics codebase developed for multiple operating systems with an involved set of build dependencies. Current development relies on a Continuous Integration and Delivery (CI/CD) pipeline based on a Buildbot farm with test environments provided by virtual machines using on-premises compute infrastructure as execution hosts. Code hosting is provided […]
