Numerical approximation of effective coefficients in stochastic homogenization of discrete elliptic equations

Antoine Gloria (2011)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

We introduce and analyze a numerical strategy to approximate effective coefficients in stochastic homogenization of discrete elliptic equations. In particular, we consider the simplest case possible: An elliptic equation on the d-dimensional lattice ℤ d with independent and identically distributed conductivities on the associated edges. Recent results by Otto and the author quantify the error made by approximating the homogenized coefficient by the averaged energy of a regularized corrector (with...

Numerical approximation of flow in a symmetric channel with vibrating walls

Sváček, Petr, Horáček, Jaromír (2010)

Programs and Algorithms of Numerical Mathematics

In this paper the numerical solution of two dimensional fluid-structure interaction problem is addressed. The fluid motion is modelled by the incompressible unsteady Navier-Stokes equations. The spatial discretization by stabilized finite element method is used. The motion of the computational domain is treated with the aid of Arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian (ALE) method. The time-space problem is solved with the aid of multigrid method. The method is applied onto a problem of interaction of channel...

Numerical approximation of Knudsen layer for the Euler-Poisson system

Fréderique Charles, Nicolas Vauchelet, Christophe Besse, Thierry Goudon, Ingrid Lacroix–Violet, Jean-Paul Dudon, Laurent Navoret (2011)

ESAIM: Proceedings

In this work, we consider the computation of the boundary conditions for the linearized Euler–Poisson derived from the BGK kinetic model in the small mean free path regime. Boundary layers are generated from the fact that the incoming kinetic flux might be far from the thermodynamical equilibrium. In [2], the authors propose a method to compute numerically the boundary conditions in the hydrodynamic limit relying on an analysis of the boundary layers....

Numerical approximation of nematic liquid crystal flows governed by the Ericksen-Leslie equations

Noel J. Walkington (2011)

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

Numerical approximation of the flow of liquid crystals governed by the Ericksen-Leslie equations is considered. Care is taken to develop numerical schemes which inherit the Hamiltonian structure of these equations and associated stability properties. For a large class of material parameters compactness of the discrete solutions is established which guarantees convergence.

Numerical approximation of the inviscid 3D primitive equations in a limited domain

Qingshan Chen, Ming-Cheng Shiue, Roger Temam, Joseph Tribbia (2012)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

A new set of nonlocal boundary conditions is proposed for the higher modes of the 3D inviscid primitive equations. Numerical schemes using the splitting-up method are proposed for these modes. Numerical simulations of the full nonlinear primitive equations are performed on a nested set of domains, and the results are discussed.

Numerical approximations of parabolic differential functional equations with the initial boundary conditions of the Neumann type

Roman Ciarski (2004)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

The aim of this paper is to present a numerical approximation for quasilinear parabolic differential functional equations with initial boundary conditions of the Neumann type. The convergence result is proved for a difference scheme with the property that the difference operators approximating mixed derivatives depend on the local properties of the coefficients of the differential equation. A numerical example is given.

Numerical Approximations of the Dynamical System Generated by Burgers’ Equation with Neumann–Dirichlet Boundary Conditions

Edward J. Allen, John A. Burns, David S. Gilliam (2013)

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

Using Burgers’ equation with mixed Neumann–Dirichlet boundary conditions, we highlight a problem that can arise in the numerical approximation of nonlinear dynamical systems on computers with a finite precision floating point number system. We describe the dynamical system generated by Burgers’ equation with mixed boundary conditions, summarize some of its properties and analyze the equilibrium states for finite dimensional dynamical systems that are generated by numerical approximations of this...

Numerical Approximations of the Relative Rearrangement: The piecewise linear case. Application to some Nonlocal Problems

Jean-Michel Rakotoson, Maria Luisa Seoane (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

We first prove an abstract result for a class of nonlocal problems using fixed point method. We apply this result to equations revelant from plasma physic problems. These equations contain terms like monotone or relative rearrangement of functions. So, we start the approximation study by using finite element to discretize this nonstandard quantities. We end the paper by giving a numerical resolution of a model containing those terms.

Numerical aspects of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation in the semiclassical limit in a supercritical regime

Rémi Carles, Bijan Mohammadi (2011)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

We study numerically the semiclassical limit for the nonlinear Schrödinger equation thanks to a modification of the Madelung transform due to Grenier. This approach allows for the presence of vacuum. Even if the mesh size and the time step do not depend on the Planck constant, we recover the position and current densities in the semiclassical limit, with a numerical rate of convergence in accordance with the theoretical results, before shocks appear in the limiting Euler equation. By using simple...

Numerical behavior of the method of projection onto an acute cone with level control in convex minimization

Robert Dylewski (2000)

Discussiones Mathematicae, Differential Inclusions, Control and Optimization

We present the numerical behavior of a projection method for convex minimization problems which was studied by Cegielski [1]. The method is a modification of the Polyak subgradient projection method [6] and of variable target value subgradient method of Kim, Ahn and Cho [2]. In each iteration of the method an obtuse cone is constructed. The obtuse cone is generated by a linearly independent system of subgradients. The next approximation of a solution is the projection onto a translated acute cone...
