A parallel time integration method for nonlinear partial differential equations is proposed. It is based on a new implementation of the Paraexp method for linear partial differential equations (PDEs) employing a block Krylov subspace method. For nonlinear PDEs the algorithm is based on our Paraexp implementation within a waveform relaxation. The initial value problem is solved iteratively on a ...

We present a fourth-order accurate algorithm for solving Poisson’s equation, the heat equation, and the advection-diffusion equation on a hierarchy of block-structured, adaptively refined grids. For spatial discretization, finite-volume stencils are derived for the divergence operator and Laplacian operator in the context of structured adaptive mesh refinement and a variety of boundary conditio...

A partitioned implicit-explicit orthogonal Runge-Kutta method (PIROCK) is proposed for the time integration of diffusion-advection-reaction problems with possibly severely stiff reaction terms and stiff stochastic terms. The diffusion terms are solved by the explicit second order orthogonal Chebyshev method (ROCK2), while the stiff reaction terms (solved implicitly) and the advection and noise ...

This work presents a new analytical method to transform exact solutions of linear diffusion equations into exact ones for nonlinear advection-diffusion models. The proposed formulation, based on Bäcklund transformations, is employed to obtain velocity fields for the unsteady two-dimensional Helmholtz equation, starting from analytical solutions of a heat conduction type model.

There is an increasing need for quantitative and computationally affordable models for analyzing tissue metabolism and hemodynamics in microvascular networks. In this work, we develop a hybrid model to solve for the time-varying oxygen advection-diffusion equation in the vessels and tissue. To obtain a three-dimensional temporal evolution of tissue oxygen concentration for realistic complex ves...
