============
As the industrial use of CFD continues to expand in daily
engineering design and development, Industrial CFD still
faces many challenges, especially its efficient use in a
multidisciplinary design optimisation (MDO) environment.
Therefore, to successfully manage the complex processes
leading to a robust MDO methodology,one has to address the
issue of reliability of the CFD predictions.

A major step in that process is the numerical scheme. High
Order Methods (HOM) for CFD modelling have seen increased
levels of interest, due to their potential to deliver higher
accuracies on a given mesh. Various methods of the spectral
type, such as Discontinuous Galerkin (DG) or Flux
Reconstruction (FR), open the way to a new frontier in
Industrial CFD, both for steady RANS models as well as high
fidelity LES/DNS simulations.

The course aims to assess  how High Order Methods could
impact general Industrial CFD in the near future.  Although
the impact of HOM for RANS simulations has still to be
confirmed, the impact on unsteady simulations, such as
LES/DNS is already considered as significant.

The delegates will be eased into the topic with a series of
applications and the associated underlying methods. The main
focus of these applications will be on providing a clear
explanation of how HOM can deliver higher accuracy in
shorter timescales,  allowing the participants to evaluate
the potential of HOM for the next generation of CFD tools.

The course will have a series of Q&As in order that the
knowledge and techniques provided are well observed,leading
to capability in implementation.
