  • Performe force diagnostics in Nektar++
    Hydrodynamic force exhibits close correlations with flow structures. For example, a low-pressure regime is often observed when a concentrated vortex exists near the wall. A series of diagnostic methods has been developed in the past decades to elucidate these relationships.… Read more: Performe force diagnostics in Nektar++
  • Scaling Nektar++ to 65K CPUs on ARCHER2
    The recent capability day on ARCHER2 allowed us to study the performance of the IncNavierStokesSolver in Nektar++ up to 65536 CPUs. We will discuss the strong scaling of the solver using the current best-practise configuration for an aerodynamic test case… Read more: Scaling Nektar++ to 65K CPUs on ARCHER2

  • Nektar++ Workshop 2025
    The 9th annual Nektar++ Workshop will bring together developers and users of all experiences to hear about new and future developments in the Nektar++ spectral/hp element framework and the exciting science and engineering being undertaken with the code.
  • Synthetic turbulence generator in Nektar++
    Advancements in modern hardware and numerical methods have significantly enhanced the feasibility of scale-resolving simulations, such as direct numerical simulation, for industrial applications. For effective application, these simulations require the generation of realistic incoming turbulence to ensure accurate predictions of the flow field.
