Recent improvements in galerkin and upwind Euler solvers and application to 3-D transonic flow in aircraft design

Abstract In this paper, recent studies in the implementation of Euler solvers relying on the Galerkin approximation or the upwind one are presented. The control of non-linear instabilities is achieved in the context of strongly non-regular 3-D tetrahedrizations. For this stabilization, monotone first-order accurate schemes are introduced for both approaches.
