Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Mathematical models of different natural processes are described by differential equations, systems of PDEs and integral equations. In most cases, the exact solution of such problems cannot be determined, so we have to use mesh methods to calculate an approximate solution using high performance computational complexes. These methods include the finite element method, the finite difference method, the finite volume method and combined methods.
In this Special Issue, we propose to publish qualitative works on theoretical studies of grid methods on approximation, stability, and convergence, as well as the results of numerical experiments confirming the effectiveness of the developed methods. New methods for boundary value problems with singularity, with a complex geometry of the domain boundary, and for non-linear equations are of particular interest. Articles concerning analysis of the numerical methods developed for the computation of mathematical models in different areas of applied science and engineering applications will be welcome.
As a rule, symmetry ideas are present in the computational schemes and make the process harmonious and effective.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All papers will be peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process.

MODIFIED MULTIGRID METHOD FOR THE NAVIER-STOKES EQUATIONS WITH THE HSS-SMOOTHERS
E. Andreeva, V. Bavin, T. Martynova, G. Muratova
A modification of the multigrid method (MGM) is considered for discretized systems of partial differential equations (PDEs) which arise from finite difference approximation of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. After discretization and linearization of the equations, systems of linear algebraic equations (SLAE) with a strongly non-Hermitian matrix is obtained. Hermitian and Skew-Hermitian Splitting (HSS) smoothers are used in the MGM for solving of the SLAE. Parallel algebraic multigrid method with GPGPU technology is used. Some numerical results are presented.
