9814115莱顿该奖项支持PI，威廉莱顿和三名研究生从匹兹堡大学的合作与卢茨Tobiska的分析和数值数学系在马格德堡，德国大学。 研究重点是发展数学思想和计算算法，用于模拟涉及三维流体运动的物理问题。 这样的算法将证明在物理学、工程学和应用数学的许多领域中是有用的。 此次合作的一个主要目的是为美国研究生提供该领域最前沿的培训，同时也具有国际成分。 特别是，该研究项目将开发和测试三维Navier-Stokes方程的有限元代码，其中包括通过资助的研究取得的进展。

9814115LaytonThis award supports the PI, William Layton and three graduate students from the University of Pittsburgh in a collaboration with Lutz Tobiska of the Department of Analysis and Numerical Mathematics at the University of Magdeburg, Germany. The research focus is the development of mathematical ideas and computational algorithms for the simulation of physical problems involving 3-D fluid motion. Such algorithms will prove useful in many fields of physics, engineering, and applied mathematics. One primary purpose of the collaboration is to give U.S. graduate students training at the forefront of the field that also has an international component. In particular, the research project will develop and test a finite-element code for the 3-D Navier-Stokes equations which incorporates the advances made through the funded research.
