Collocation Methods from Interpolation

An introduction to collocation methods for differential equations, from the perspective of interpolation theory. I explain how collocation methods are more-or-less identical to interpolation methods, with the only difference being the constraints applied to the problem.

Interpolation Theory 101

A quick overview of the basics of interpolating a set of function points using a polynomial. This servers as a percursor to a (future) post on collocation methods

Calculate Wall Shear Gradient from Velocity Gradient

If the gradient of velocity is already calculated, how could you get the wall-shear gradient for any arbitrary wall? The aim of this post is to answer that question and give the reasoning for the result.

Cross Product and Curl in Index Notation

Review of how to perform cross products and curls in index summation notation. In essence, this ends up being an overview on how to apply the Levi-Civita symbol in these contexts.

Automate Deployment of Wowchemy Website onto GitHub Pages

This tutorial goes over how to take a website built using Hugo and Wowchemy (formerly Academic) and host that website using GitHub Pages. More specifically, it goes over how to automate the deployment of a Hugo site using GitHub Actions. This website you’re viewing right now is run using this exact process.
