*报告内容简介:
Many critical applications, such as extreme weather forecast, rely on accurate simulations of the large-scale geophysical flows, namely the ocean and atmosphere. These flows evolve on spatial scales ranging from meters to thousands of kilometers, and on temporal scales ranging from seconds to decades. These scales interact with each other in a highly nonlinear fashion, making it extremely challenging to reliably and accurately capture the long-term dynamics of these flows on numerical models. Unstructured meshes have been gaining popularity in recent years on geophysical models, thanks to its being almost free of polar singularities, and remaining highly scalable even at eddy resolving resolutions. However, to unleash the full potential of these meshes, new schemes are needed. This talk starts with a brief introduction to large-scale geophysical flows. Then a new scheme is introduced, based on the vorticity and divergence variables, and the Hamiltonian approach. The scheme operates on unstructured meshes over a global or bounded domain, conserves both energy and enstrophy, and possesses the optimal dispersive wave relations, which is crucial for the maintenance of the geostrophic balance within the flow. A key idea behind the derivation is the correspondence between the symmetries of the Hamiltonian system and the conservation of key quantities of the physical system (Noether’s theorem). results from a suite of test cases will be presented to demonstrate the superior advantages as well as the limitations of the new scheme.
