A finite volume method for the Laplace equation on almost arbitrary two-dimensional grids

Komla Domelevo, Pascal Omnes (2005)

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

We present a finite volume method based on the integration of the Laplace equation on both the cells of a primal almost arbitrary two-dimensional mesh and those of a dual mesh obtained by joining the centers of the cells of the primal mesh. The key ingredient is the definition of discrete gradient and divergence operators verifying a discrete Green formula. This method generalizes an existing finite volume method that requires “Voronoi-type” meshes. We show the equivalence of this finite volume...

A higher order pressure segregation scheme for the time-dependent magnetohydrodynamics equations

Yun-Bo Yang, Yao-Lin Jiang, Qiong-Xiang Kong (2019)

Applications of Mathematics

A higher order pressure segregation scheme for the time-dependent incompressible magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) equations is presented. This scheme allows us to decouple the MHD system into two sub-problems at each time step. First, a coupled linear elliptic system is solved for the velocity and the magnetic field. And then, a Poisson-Neumann problem is treated for the pressure. The stability is analyzed and the error analysis is accomplished by interpreting this segregated scheme as a higher order...

A local projection stabilization finite element method with nonlinear crosswind diffusion for convection-diffusion-reaction equations

Gabriel R. Barrenechea, Volker John, Petr Knobloch (2013)

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

An extension of the local projection stabilization (LPS) finite element method for convection-diffusion-reaction equations is presented and analyzed, both in the steady-state and the transient setting. In addition to the standard LPS method, a nonlinear crosswind diffusion term is introduced that accounts for the reduction of spurious oscillations. The existence of a solution can be proved and, depending on the choice of the stabilization parameter, also its uniqueness. Error estimates are derived...

A mathematical and computational framework for reliable real-time solution of parametrized partial differential equations

Christophe Prud'homme, Dimitrios V. Rovas, Karen Veroy, Anthony T. Patera (2002)

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

We present in this article two components: these components can in fact serve various goals independently, though we consider them here as an ensemble. The first component is a technique for the rapid and reliable evaluation prediction of linear functional outputs of elliptic (and parabolic) partial differential equations with affine parameter dependence. The essential features are (i) (provably) rapidly convergent global reduced–basis approximations — Galerkin projection onto a space W N spanned...

A matrix constructive method for the analytic-numerical solution of coupled partial differential systems

Lucas Jódar, Enrique A. Navarro, M. V. Ferrer (1995)

Applications of Mathematics

In this paper we construct analytic-numerical solutions for initial-boundary value systems related to the equation u t - A u x x - B u = 0 , where B is an arbitrary square complex matrix and A ia s matrix such that the real part of the eigenvalues of the matrix 1 2 ( A + A H ) is positive. Given an admissible error ε and a finite domain G , and analytic-numerical solution whose error is uniformly upper bounded by ε in G , is constructed.

A mixed–FEM and BEM coupling for a three-dimensional eddy current problem

Salim Meddahi, Virginia Selgas (2003)

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

We study in this paper the electromagnetic field generated in a conductor by an alternating current density. The resulting interface problem (see Bossavit (1993)) between the metal and the dielectric medium is treated by a mixed–FEM and BEM coupling method. We prove that our BEM-FEM formulation is well posed and that it leads to a convergent Galerkin method.

A modal synthesis method for the elastoacoustic vibration problem

Alfredo Bermúdez, Luis Hervella-Nieto, Rodolfo Rodríguez (2002)

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

A modal synthesis method to solve the elastoacoustic vibration problem is analyzed. A two-dimensional coupled fluid-solid system is considered; the solid is described by displacement variables, whereas displacement potential is used for the fluid. A particular modal synthesis leading to a symmetric eigenvalue problem is introduced. Finite element discretizations with lagrangian elements are considered for solving the uncoupled problems. Convergence for eigenvalues and eigenfunctions is proved, error...

A multiscale mortar multipoint flux mixed finite element method

Mary Fanett Wheeler, Guangri Xue, Ivan Yotov (2012)

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

In this paper, we develop a multiscale mortar multipoint flux mixed finite element method for second order elliptic problems. The equations in the coarse elements (or subdomains) are discretized on a fine grid scale by a multipoint flux mixed finite element method that reduces to cell-centered finite differences on irregular grids. The subdomain grids do not have to match across the interfaces. Continuity of flux between coarse elements is imposed via a mortar finite element space on a coarse grid...
