GASpAR (Download here) is an object-oriented geophysical and astrophysical spectral-element adaptive refinement code.
As a demonstration of the code, several new 2D test cases have been introduced and performed that have time-dependent analytic solutions and exhibit localized flow features, including the 2D Burgers equation with straight, curved-radial and oblique-colliding fronts.
The main goal of the present code development is to ask, if the significant structures of the flow are indeed sparse, so that their dynamics can be followed accurately even if they are embedded in random noise, then does dynamic adaptivity offer a means for achieving otherwise unattainable large Re values.

This would explain the presence of quotations and expressions from the "Instrucction" in the work by Falla, the Altarpiece of Cervantes Maese Pedro (1923), though which this Aragonese composer and guitarist´s work is born again.

 Amazon.com: Leaving Pico (Hardscrabble Books): Books: Frank Gaspar   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
The story, wistfully recalling Old World details and tenacious with nostalgia, is narrated by young Joachim Carvalho, an illegitimate child and the only young person in a houseful of tenuously connected Picos (Portuguese immigrants from the Azores, as opposed to Lisbons, from the mainland).
Glossing through the folklore and domestic scenery, readers may find Gaspar's plot to be of secondary concern in the face of this lush tale's poetic immediacy and winsome characters.
But in my opinion, Frank Gaspar an Associate Professor of English and Creative Writing at Long Beach City College made a very big, inexcusable and unforgivable mistake not to have researched the correct way of spelling the Portuguese words inserted in his novel.
