The series comprises invited talks on a range of topics related to the theory of high-order Flux Reconstruction schemes, their implementation in the PyFR (www.pyfr.org) flow solver, and their application to industrially relevant flow problems. The overarching objective of the series is to help bridge the gap between academic research activities and real-world industrial requirements. […]

Conference on the Numerical Solution of Differential and Differential-Algebraic Equations (NUMDIFF-16) took place on 6 September — 10 September 2021 in Germany. This conference is devoted to all numerical aspects of time-dependent differential equations and differential-algebraic equations. PRISM’s team member, Prof Colin Cotter, organised mini-symposum during this event wich was dedicated to “Fluid dynamics: innovative […]
Learn MoreWe are delighted to announced that former PRISM PDRA Dr Jemma Shipton has been promoted to a lecturer position at University of Exeter. This is a fantastic achievement warmly welcomed by PRIMS team.
Learn MoreThe fifth Firedrake user and developer workshop was held online between 15-17 September 2021.The workshop was an opportunity for Firedrake users and developers to engage with each other to communicate the ways that Firedrake can be used in simulation science, the latest developments in the project, and the future developments anticipated. The event provided Firedrake […]
Learn MorePRISM has recently funded a Software Engineer (Christian Jane) for three months. This short term project had the objective of strengthening the maintenance/robustness aspects of the computational fluid dynamics software Nektar++, focusing on addressing some of the outstanding software-related issues present in the current version of the code. During this time, Christian has been integrated […]
Learn MorePRISM Co-I Matthew Piggott has been awarded an ARCHER2 eCSE grant to fund a Research Associate (Joe Wallwork) for one year from 1st August 2021 to 31st July 2022. The project is entitled “Goal-Oriented Mesh Adaptation for Firedrake” and will make this advanced discretisation approach available to the Firedrake user community. Goal-oriented mesh adaptation seeks […]
Learn MoreThe Platform for Research in Simulation Methods (PRISM, https://prism.ac.uk) is a major research programme based at Imperial encompassing activity in computational science. The main outputs of PRISM are frameworks for encoding composable mathematical abstractions as software, making advances in numerical mathematics practically applicable to a wide range of high-performance real-world applications across industry and in […]
Learn MoreThis year is the 10th year anniversary of the GungHo project, a NERC/STFC/Met Office funded project to develop the next generation dynamical core (the resolved fluid dynamics component) for their climate/weather modelling system, which incorporates research by Colin Cotter and David Ham. GungHo has recently started to run its first global weather and climate simulations, […]
Learn MoreThe grant has been awarded to study Advanced Parallel in Time Algorithms for Partial Differential Equations, funded by UKRI in a directed call managed by the Met Office. It is part of the £47.5M ExCALIBUR initiative funded from the Strategic Priorities Fund to develop exascale computing algorithms and infrastructure. The total grant value is £1.15M […]
