The lab studies numerical methods for partial differential equations and their errors.

AboutAbout the lab
Evaluating computational errors with mathematics.
Associate Professor Daisuke Tagami's fields are applied mathematics and computational mechanics, and his research focuses on developing numerical methods for partial differential equations, error estimation, and applications to real-world problems.
The lab's subjects include numerical analysis of particle methods, large-scale numerical methods for electromagnetic field problems, viscoelastic flow problems, moving boundary problems, the Navier–Stokes equations, and thermal convection problems.
The lab also studies applications of the Navier–Stokes equations to the numerical computation of drag and lift, and applications of thermal convection problems to the numerical computation of glass melting.
Key terms
- Partial differential equation
- An equation that describes the relationships among quantities that vary with position and time, such as flow, heat, and electromagnetic fields.
- Finite element method
- A computational method that divides the region of interest into small pieces to find approximate solutions of equations.
- Particle method
- A computational method that represents a fluid by the motion of many particles.
- Viscoelasticity
- The property of a fluid that has both viscosity and elasticity.
