Abstract: Abstract We present new parallel results for the solution of partial differential equations based on the software platform UG. State-of-the-art numerical methods have been developed and implemented for the efficient and comfortable solution of real-world problems. UG supports distributed unstructured grids, adaptive grid refinement, derefinement/coarsening, robust parallel multigrid methods, various discretizations, dynamic load balancing, mapping and grid partitioning. Here, we give examples for a parallel algebraic multigrid method, for elasto-plastic computations, and for simulations of two-phase flow in porous media.
