Active flux scheme for time-dependent, viscous, compressible flows (2022)
Presentation / Conference
Sugar-Gabor, O. (2022, October). Active flux scheme for time-dependent, viscous, compressible flows. Presented at International Conference of Aerospace Sciences AEROSPATIAL 2022, INCAS, Bucharest, Romania

The Active Flux scheme is a Finite Volume scheme with additional degrees of freedom on the cell
boundaries. These additional nodes allow for third-order accuracy to be achieved, though extensions to
higher orders are also possible. Unlike Godunov-t... Read More about Active flux scheme for time-dependent, viscous, compressible flows.

Non-intrusive reduced-order model for unsteady fluid flow and fluid-structure interaction problems (2022)
Presentation / Conference
Sugar-Gabor, O., & Fairchild, D. (2022, October). Non-intrusive reduced-order model for unsteady fluid flow and fluid-structure interaction problems. Presented at International Conference of Aerospace Sciences AEROSPATIAL 2022, INCAS, Bucharest, Romania

A non-intrusive reduced-order model applicable to time-dependent parametric systems is
developed. The model is based on extracting a reduced-order basis from high-order snapshots via proper
orthogonal decomposition. Multi-layered feedforward artifi... Read More about Non-intrusive reduced-order model for unsteady fluid flow and fluid-structure interaction problems.
