Central local discontinuous galerkin methods on overlapping cells for diffusion equations

Yingjie Liu, Chi-Wang Shu, Eitan Tadmor, Mengping Zhang (2011)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

In this paper we present two versions of the central local discontinuous Galerkin (LDG) method on overlapping cells for solving diffusion equations, and provide their stability analysis and error estimates for the linear heat equation. A comparison between the traditional LDG method on a single mesh and the two versions of the central LDG method on overlapping cells is also made. Numerical experiments are provided to validate the quantitative conclusions from the analysis and to support conclusions...

Certified reduced-basis solutions of viscous Burgers equation parametrized by initial and boundary values

Alexandre Janon, Maëlle Nodet, Clémentine Prieur (2013)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

We present a reduced basis offline/online procedure for viscous Burgers initial boundary value problem, enabling efficient approximate computation of the solutions of this equation for parametrized viscosity and initial and boundary value data. This procedure comes with a fast-evaluated rigorous error bound certifying the approximation procedure. Our numerical experiments show significant computational savings, as well as efficiency of the error bound.

Combined finite element -- finite volume method (convergence analysis)

Mária Lukáčová-Medviďová (1997)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

We present an efficient numerical method for solving viscous compressible fluid flows. The basic idea is to combine finite volume and finite element methods in an appropriate way. Thus nonlinear convective terms are discretized by the finite volume method over a finite volume mesh dual to a triangular grid. Diffusion terms are discretized by the conforming piecewise linear finite element method. In the paper we study theoretical properties of this scheme for the scalar nonlinear convection-diffusion...

Computational design optimization of low-energy buildings

Vala, Jiří (2017)

Proceedings of Equadiff 14

European directives and related national technical standards force the substantial reduction of energy consumption of all types of buildings. This can be done thanks to the massive insulation and the improvement of quality of building enclosures, using the simple evaluation assuming the one-dimensional stationary heat conduction. However, recent applications of advanced materials, structures and technologies force the proper physical, mathematical and computational analysis coming from the thermodynamic...

Conservation schemes for convection-diffusion equations with Robin boundary conditions

Stéphane Flotron, Jacques Rappaz (2013)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

In this article, we present a numerical scheme based on a finite element method in order to solve a time-dependent convection-diffusion equation problem and satisfy some conservation properties. In particular, our scheme is able to conserve the total energy for a heat equation or the total mass of a solute in a fluid for a concentration equation, even if the approximation of the velocity field is not completely divergence-free. We establish a priori errror estimates for this scheme and we give some...

Consistent streamline residual-based artificial viscosity stabilization for numerical simulation of incompressible turbulent flow by isogeometric analysis

Bohumír Bastl, Marek Brandner, Kristýna Slabá, Eva Turnerová (2022)

Applications of Mathematics

In this paper, we propose a new stabilization technique for numerical simulation of incompressible turbulent flow by solving Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations closed by the SST k - ω turbulence model. The stabilization scheme is constructed such that it is consistent in the sense used in the finite element method, artificial diffusion is added only in the direction of convection and it is based on a purely nonlinear approach. We present numerical results obtained by our in-house incompressible...

Construction of fluxes at junctions for the numerical solution of traffic flow models on networks

Vacek, Lukáš, Kučera, Václav (2021)

Programs and Algorithms of Numerical Mathematics

We deal with the simulation of traffic flow on networks. On individual roads we use standard macroscopic traffic models. The discontinuous Galerkin method in space and explicit Euler method in time is used for the numerical solution. We apply limiters to keep the density in an admissible interval as well as prevent spurious oscillations in the numerical solution. To solve traffic networks, we construct suitable numerical fluxes at junctions. Numerical experiments are presented.

Continuous-time finite element analysis of multiphase flow in groundwater hydrology

Zhangxin Chen, Magne Espedal, Richard E. Ewing (1995)

Applications of Mathematics

A nonlinear differential system for describing an air-water system in groundwater hydrology is given. The system is written in a fractional flow formulation, i.e., in terms of a saturation and a global pressure. A continuous-time version of the finite element method is developed and analyzed for the approximation of the saturation and pressure. The saturation equation is treated by a Galerkin finite element method, while the pressure equation is treated by a mixed finite element method. The analysis...

Convergence and stability of a discontinuous Galerkin time-domain method for the 3D heterogeneous Maxwell equations on unstructured meshes

Loula Fezoui, Stéphane Lanteri, Stéphanie Lohrengel, Serge Piperno (2005)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

A Discontinuous Galerkin method is used for to the numerical solution of the time-domain Maxwell equations on unstructured meshes. The method relies on the choice of local basis functions, a centered mean approximation for the surface integrals and a second-order leap-frog scheme for advancing in time. The method is proved to be stable for cases with either metallic or absorbing boundary conditions, for a large class of basis functions. A discrete analog of the electromagnetic energy is conserved...

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

As an example of a simple constrained geometric non-linear wave equation, we study a numerical approximation of the Maxwell Klein Gordon equation. We consider an existing constraint preserving semi-discrete scheme based on finite elements and prove its convergence in space dimension 2 for initial data of finite energy.
