The RAPSODI project-team is a joint research team between Inria, Université de Lille, and CNRS.
RAPSODI members are part of the Numerical Analysis and Partial Differential Equations (ANEDP) team of the Laboratoire Paul Painlevé (joint Université de Lille/CNRS unit).
The activity of the team is devoted to the design, the analysis, and the efficient implementation of numerical schemes for dissipative models arising in physics or biology. We particularly focus our attention on the preservation of some physical characteristics at the discrete level: positivity, mass conservation, growth of physical entropies, asymptotic behaviors… We also aim at optimizing the computational cost at a fixed accuracy, by developing high-order schemes, or by means of a posteriori error control. Finally, we adapt the algorithms to the potential industrial constraints, so that they can be incorporated in existing codes.
