A parameter-free stabilized finite element method for scalar advection-diffusion problems

Pavel Bochev, Kara Peterson (2013)

Open Mathematics

We formulate and study numerically a new, parameter-free stabilized finite element method for advection-diffusion problems. Using properties of compatible finite element spaces we establish connection between nodal diffusive fluxes and one-dimensional diffusion equations on the edges of the mesh. To define the stabilized method we extend this relationship to the advection-diffusion case by solving simplified one-dimensional versions of the governing equations on the edges. Then we use H(curl)-conforming...

A particular smooth interpolation that generates splines

Segeth, Karel (2017)

Programs and Algorithms of Numerical Mathematics

There are two grounds the spline theory stems from - the algebraic one (where splines are understood as piecewise smooth functions satisfying some continuity conditions) and the variational one (where splines are obtained via minimization of some quadratic functionals with constraints). We use the general variational approach called smooth interpolation introduced by Talmi and Gilat and show that it covers not only the cubic spline and its 2D and 3D analogues but also the well known tension spline...

A penalty approach for a box constrained variational inequality problem

Zahira Kebaili, Djamel Benterki (2018)

Applications of Mathematics

We propose a penalty approach for a box constrained variational inequality problem ( BVIP ) . This problem is replaced by a sequence of nonlinear equations containing a penalty term. We show that if the penalty parameter tends to infinity, the solution of this sequence converges to that of BVIP when the function F involved is continuous and strongly monotone and the box C contains the origin. We develop the algorithmic aspect with theoretical arguments properly established. The numerical results tested on...

A penalty method for the time-dependent Stokes problem with the slip boundary condition and its finite element approximation

Guanyu Zhou, Takahito Kashiwabara, Issei Oikawa (2017)

Applications of Mathematics

We consider the finite element method for the time-dependent Stokes problem with the slip boundary condition in a smooth domain. To avoid a variational crime of numerical computation, a penalty method is introduced, which also facilitates the numerical implementation. For the continuous problem, the convergence of the penalty method is investigated. Then we study the fully discretized finite element approximations for the penalty method with the P1/P1-stabilization or P1b/P1 element. For the discretization...

A Petrov-Galerkin approximation of convection-diffusion and reaction-diffusion problems

Josef Dalík (1991)

Applications of Mathematics

A general construction of test functions in the Petrov-Galerkin method is described. Using this construction; algorithms for an approximate solution of the Dirichlet problem for the differential equation - ϵ u n + p u ' + q u = f are presented and analyzed theoretically. The positive number ϵ is supposed to be much less than the discretization step and the values of p , q . An algorithm for the corresponding two-dimensional problem is also suggested and results of numerical tests are introduced.

A piecewise P2-nonconforming quadrilateral finite element

Imbunm Kim, Zhongxuan Luo, Zhaoliang Meng, Hyun NAM, Chunjae Park, Dongwoo Sheen (2013)

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

We introduce a piecewise P2-nonconforming quadrilateral finite element. First, we decompose a convex quadrilateral into the union of four triangles divided by its diagonals. Then the finite element space is defined by the set of all piecewise P2-polynomials that are quadratic in each triangle and continuously differentiable on the quadrilateral. The degrees of freedom (DOFs) are defined by the eight values at the two Gauss points on each of the four edges plus the value at the intersection of the...

A posteriori error analysis for parabolic variational inequalities

Kyoung-Sook Moon, Ricardo H. Nochetto, Tobias von Petersdorff, Chen-song Zhang (2007)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Motivated by the pricing of American options for baskets we consider a parabolic variational inequality in a bounded polyhedral domain Ω d with a continuous piecewise smooth obstacle. We formulate a fully discrete method by using piecewise linear finite elements in space and the backward Euler method in time. We define an a posteriori error estimator and show that it gives an upper bound for the error in L2(0,T;H1(Ω)). The error estimator is localized in the sense that the size of the elliptic residual...
