The Schedule

Opening of UKACM-GACM School 

Dr. Jelena Ninic (UKACM President) and Prof. Alex Popp (GACM EC)

Introduction and overview of the Nektar++ school

Introduction to fundamental of the Spectral/hp methods

Break

Introduction to Solution Algorithms for fluid dynamics

Break

Introduction to the Nektar++  framework

High order meshing

Lunch break

Practical sessions

For the practical session, there will be 4 tutorials, the first of which uses the Nektar++ Python interface and will use our JupyterHub environment, while the remaining tutorials can be run in the provided VirtualBox environment. Participants will be encouraged to progress at their own pace and reach out for help when needed.
