Numerical Analysis and Scientific Computing

Simon Fraser University has one of largest groups in modern numerical PDEs in Canada.  

Research areas include:

• level set methods
• adaptive methods for PDEs
• computational fluid dynamics
• evolutionary PDEs
• image processing
• qualitative numerical methods for dynamical systems
• nonlinear finite difference methods
• finite element methods
• stochastic PDEs
• integral equation methods

as well as related methods for solving

• linear and nonlinear algebraic equations
• optimization problems
• ordinary differential equations arising from PDE discretizations
