The matrix vertex method requires considerable computation time and encounters the dependency problem in practice,thereby limiting its application in engineering. The proposed parameter vertex method can avoid the dependency problem, and the number of possible vertex combinations in the proposed method is significantly less than that in the matrix vertex method.The parameter vertex method requires that each matrix element in the dynamic differential equation is monotonic with respect to the uncertain parameter, and that the dynamic response reaches its extreme value when the uncertain parameter is at its endpoint.To further reduce the runtime, both vertical and transversal parallel algorithms are introduced and integrated into the parameter vertex method to improve its computational efficiency. Two numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the proposed method combined with both parallel algorithms. The performances of the two parallel algorithms are thoroughly studied. The parameter vertex method combined with parallel algorithm can be used for large-scale computing.展开更多

An incremental pressure fractional step method is adopted to handle the velocity-pressure coupling. The velocity and the pressure are collocated at the node of the vertex-centered control volume which is formed by join- ing the centroid of cells sharing the common vertex. For the temporal integration of the momentum equations, an im- plicit second-order scheme is utilized to enhance the com- putational stability and eliminate the time step limit due to the diffusion term. The momentum equations are discretized by the vertex-centered finite volume method （FVM） and the pressure Poisson equation is solved by the Galerkin finite el- ement method （FEM）. The momentum interpolation is used to damp out the spurious pressure wiggles. The test case with analytical solutions demonstrates second-order accuracy of the current hybrid scheme in time and space for both veloc- ity and pressure. The classic test cases, the lid-driven cavity flow, the skew cavity flow and the backward-facing step flow, show that numerical results are in good agreement with the published benchmark solutions.展开更多
