Numerical Accuracy in CFD
Numerical accuracy is of prime importance when one is playing with numbers especially in CFD. In CFD the naive understanding of numerical accuracy has to be shed off. It pertains to the scheme, grid, the problem involved, and many other factors. However, I will try to portray some of the predominant ones. The sources of numerical accuracy are;
1. Numerical scheme
Discretisation - order of accuracy of the convective terms, minimal amount of artificial viscosity
Tunable parameters - like co-effcients in JST...

Free On-line Books
Ok side tracking somewhat from CFD this time.
I stumbled upon these few websites for good information, which is open-source and free of course !
I know only a few but would like to increase the list. Much to learn, much to know about.
Would like to know more links from you all.

Sparse Matrices (Basics)
This post is my personal experience with sparse matrices and is not extensive as is my knowledge about them. I would like to go through these as follows steps / directions.
1. What is a sparse matrix ?
A matrix having many zero elements or block elements (a matrix consisting of smaller matrices of size m-by-m, can be zero as well) .
Example of sparse matrix (Wikipedia)
