Mathematical Sciences Research Equipment 1989

这是国家科学基金数学科学部数学科学计划科学计算研究设备项目的一项资助。该计划支持购买专门用于进行数学科学研究的专用计算设备。这种设备是几个研究项目所需要的，很难单独为一个项目辩护。国家科学基金会的支持伴随着制造商的折扣和贡献，以及提交提案的机构的大量费用分摊。该项目是学术、企业和政府合作支持数学科学基础研究的一个范例。该设备将用于支持休斯顿大学实验室的四个数值密集计算研究项目：由Mary Wheeler和John Killough指导的含水层污染物运移数值模拟；由Ronald Glowinski、John Killough和Mary Wheeler指导的流动问题的区域分解方法及其并行实现；由Mary Wheeler和John Killough指导的用于提高采油过程数值模拟的并行计算方法，以及由John Killough和Mary Wheeler指导的用于油藏非均质性随机模拟的并行技术。

This is a grant under the Scientific Computing Research Equipment for the Mathematical Sciences program of the Division of Mathematical Sciences of the National Science Foundation. This program supports the purchase of special purpose computing equipment dedicated to the conduct of research in the mathematical sciences. This equipment is required for several research projects and would be difficult to justify for one project alone. Support from the National Science Foundation is coupled with discounts and contributions from manufacturers and with substantial cost-sharing from the institutions submitting the proposal. This program is an example of academic, corporate, and government cooperation in the support of basic research in the mathematical sciences. This equipment will be used to support four research projects in the Laboratory for Numerically Intensive Computations at the University of Houston: Numerical Simulation of Contaminant Transport in Aquifers, directed by Mary Wheeler and John Killough; Domain Decomposition Methods for Flow Problems and Their Parallel Implementation, directed by Ronald Glowinski, John Killough, and Mary Wheeler; Parallel Computational Approaches for the Numerical Simulation of Enhanced Oil Recovery Processes, directed by Mary Wheeler and John Killough; and Parallel Techniques for Stochastic Simulation of Reservoir Heterogeneities, directed by John Killough and Mary Wheeler.
