EXAMPLE 1. 3D thermal convection in a cyliner, comparison with the experimantal data

EXAMPLE 2. 3D movie for thermal vibrational convection in oxide melts, 150 000 unknowns : one frame, full movie at http://uahtitan.uah.edu/alex/cvs_frontx5.html.

EXAMPLE 3. 2D flow in a lid driven cavity at Re =3200: streamlines, compare higher order continuum model solution with the Navier-Stokes solution streamlines.
Also: computed velocity profiles at Re=3200 and 10,000 (marked as GHE): comparison with experiment by Koseff&Street (1982). Navier-Stokes and k-e model solutions are provided as well.
