Numerical simulations for nodal domains and spectral minimal partitions

Virginie Bonnaillie-Noël, Bernard Helffer, Gregory Vial (2010)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We recall here some theoretical results of Helffer et al. [Ann. Inst. H. Poincaré Anal. Non Linéaire (2007) doi:10.1016/j.anihpc.2007.07.004] about minimal partitions and propose numerical computations to check some of their published or unpublished conjectures and exhibit new ones.

Numerical simulations of glacial rebound using preconditioned iterative solution methods

Erik Bängtsson, Maya Neytcheva (2005)

Applications of Mathematics

This paper discusses finite element discretization and preconditioning strategies for the iterative solution of nonsymmetric indefinite linear algebraic systems of equations arising in modelling of glacial rebound processes. Some numerical experiments for the purely elastic model setting are provided. Comparisons of the performance of the iterative solution method with a direct solution method are included as well.

Numerical simulations of wave breaking

Philippe Helluy, Frédéric Golay, Jean-Paul Caltagirone, Pierre Lubin, Stéphane Vincent, Deborah Drevard, Richard Marcer, Philippe Fraunié, Nicolas Seguin, Stephan Grilli, Anne-Cécile Lesage, Alain Dervieux, Olivier Allain (2005)

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

This paper is devoted to the numerical simulation of wave breaking. It presents the results of a numerical workshop that was held during the conference LOMA04. The objective is to compare several mathematical models (compressible or incompressible) and associated numerical methods to compute the flow field during a wave breaking over a reef. The methods will also be compared with experiments.

Numerical solution of a 1-d elastohydrodynamic problem in magnetic storage devices

Iñigo Arregui, José Jesús Cendán, Carlos Parés, Carlos Vázquez (2008)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

In this work we present new numerical methods to simulate the mechanics of head-tape magnetic storage devices. The elastohydrodynamic problem is formulated in terms of a coupled system which is governed by a nonlinear compressible Reynolds equation for the air pressure over the head, and a rod model for the tape displacement. A fixed point algorithm between the solutions of the elastic and hydrodynamic problems is proposed. For the nonlinear Reynolds equation, a characteristics method and a...

Numerical solution of a new hydrodynamic model of flocking

Kučera, Václav, Živčáková, Andrea (2015)

Programs and Algorithms of Numerical Mathematics

This work is concerned with the numerical solution of a hydrodynamic model of the macroscopic behavior of flocks of birds due to Fornasier et al., 2011. The model consists of the compressible Euler equations with an added nonlocal, nonlinear right-hand side. As noticed by the authors of the model, explicit time schemes are practically useless even on very coarse grids in 1D due to the nonlocal nature of the equations. To this end, we apply a semi-implicit discontinuous Galerkin method to solve the...

Numerical solution of a stochastic model of a ball-type vibration absorber

Fischer, Cyril, Náprstek, Jiří (2021)

Programs and Algorithms of Numerical Mathematics

The mathematical model of a ball-type vibration absorber represents a non-linear differential system which includes non-holonomic constraints. When a random ambient excitation is taken into account, the system has to be treated as a stochastic deferential equation. Depending on the level of simplification, an analytical solution is not practicable and numerical solution procedures have to be applied. The contribution presents a simple stochastic analysis of a particular resonance effect which can...

Numerical solution of an inverse initial boundary value problem for the wave equation in the presence of conductivity imperfections of small volume

Mark Asch, Marion Darbas, Jean-Baptiste Duval (2011)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We consider the numerical solution, in two- and three-dimensional bounded domains, of the inverse problem for identifying the location of small-volume, conductivity imperfections in a medium with homogeneous background. A dynamic approach, based on the wave equation, permits us to treat the important case of “limited-view” data. Our numerical algorithm is based on the coupling of a finite element solution of the wave equation, an exact controllability method and finally a Fourier inversion for localizing...
