On the solution of a finite element approximation of a linear obstacle plate problem

Luis Fernandes, Isabel Figueiredo, Joaquim Júdice (2002)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

In this paper the solution of a finite element approximation of a linear obstacle plate problem is investigated. A simple version of an interior point method and a block pivoting algorithm have been proposed for the solution of this problem. Special purpose implementations of these procedures are included and have been used in the solution of a set of test problems. The results of these experiences indicate that these procedures are quite efficient to deal with these instances and compare favourably...

On the solution of inverse problems for generalized oxygen consumption

Denis Constales, Jozef Kačur (2001)

Applications of Mathematics

We present the solution of some inverse problems for one-dimensional free boundary problems of oxygen consumption type, with a semilinear convection-diffusion-reaction parabolic equation. Using a fixed domain transformation (Landau’s transformation) the direct problem is reduced to a system of ODEs. To minimize the objective functionals in the inverse problems, we approximate the data by a finite number of parameters with respect to which automatic differentiation is applied.

On the solution of linear algebraic systems arising from the semi–implicit DGFE discretization of the compressible Navier–Stokes equations

Vít Dolejší (2010)

Kybernetika

We deal with the numerical simulation of a motion of viscous compressible fluids. We discretize the governing Navier–Stokes equations by the backward difference formula – discontinuous Galerkin finite element (BDF-DGFE) method, which exhibits a sufficiently stable, efficient and accurate numerical scheme. The BDF-DGFE method requires a solution of one linear algebra system at each time step. In this paper, we deal with these linear algebra systems with the aid of an iterative solver. We discuss...
