Numerical algorithms for higher-order accurate discretizations of flows on deforming domains

Canada is one of the largest producers of hydro and wind energy in the world. Optimally designed marine and wind turbine blades can further increase the production of these sources of renewable energy. More than two hundred floods have occurred in Canada over the past century taking many lives and causing billions of dollars in damage. An accurate prediction of flood plains when rivers overflow may prevent the loss of lives and help protect Canadian homes and businesses. These are just two applications that benefit tremendously from computer simulation tools. The success of these simulation tools, however, depends on the implemented algorithms. In this project we will develop new algorithms for more efficient and more accurate simulation tools.
