Developing research projects

Direct development:

1. Code p-Multigrid for spectral difference with Willem Deconinck
   • Assemble all the code tools already available
   • Test it with some toy examples
2. Optimization of explicit Runge-Kutta for spectral difference and multigrid with David and Willem Deconinck
   • Get meaningful spectra for SD
   • Re-oder eigenvalues as a function of the wave number
   • Implement/add to the the code the optimization of damping
   • Writing
3. Optimization of explicit Runge-Kutta for spectral difference with application to aeroacoustics with David
   • Find optimal ERK
   • Test them with some nice examples (Muffler?,NACA0012 profile)
   • Writing
4. On the positivity of spectral difference
   • Give code to Zoltan
   • Analysis
   • Testing
   • Writing
