On the stability of the coupling of 3D and 1D fluid-structure interaction models for blood flow simulations

Luca Formaggia, Alexandra Moura, Fabio Nobile (2007)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

We consider the coupling between three-dimensional (3D) and one-dimensional (1D) fluid-structure interaction (FSI) models describing blood flow inside compliant vessels. The 1D model is a hyperbolic system of partial differential equations. The 3D model consists of the Navier-Stokes equations for incompressible Newtonian fluids coupled with a model for the vessel wall dynamics. A non standard formulation for the Navier-Stokes equations is adopted to have suitable boundary conditions for the...

Optimal convergence and a posteriori error analysis of the original DG method for advection-reaction equations

Tie Zhu Zhang, Shu Hua Zhang (2015)

Applications of Mathematics

We consider the original DG method for solving the advection-reaction equations with arbitrary velocity in d space dimensions. For triangulations satisfying the flow condition, we first prove that the optimal convergence rate is of order k + 1 in the L 2 -norm if the method uses polynomials of order k . Then, a very simple derivative recovery formula is given to produce an approximation to the derivative in the flow direction which superconverges with order k + 1 . Further we consider a residual-based a posteriori...

Origins, analysis, numerical analysis, and numerical approximation of a forward-backward parabolic problem

A. Kadir Aziz, Donald A. French, Soren Jensen, R. Bruce Kellogg (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

We consider the analysis and numerical solution of a forward-backward boundary value problem. We provide some motivation, prove existence and uniqueness in a function class especially geared to the problem at hand, provide various energy estimates, prove a priori error estimates for the Galerkin method, and show the results of some numerical computations.

P-adaptive Hermite methods for initial value problems∗

Ronald Chen, Thomas Hagstrom (2012)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

We study order-adaptive implementations of Hermite methods for hyperbolic and singularly perturbed parabolic initial value problems. Exploiting the facts that Hermite methods allow the degree of the local polynomial representation to vary arbitrarily from cell to cell and that, for hyperbolic problems, each cell can be evolved independently over a time-step determined only by the cell size, a relatively straightforward method is proposed. Its utility is demonstrated on a number of model problems...

Parallel Schwarz Waveform Relaxation Algorithm for an N-dimensional semilinear heat equation

Minh-Binh Tran (2014)

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

We present in this paper a proof of well-posedness and convergence for the parallel Schwarz Waveform Relaxation Algorithm adapted to an N-dimensional semilinear heat equation. Since the equation we study is an evolution one, each subproblem at each step has its own local existence time, we then determine a common existence time for every problem in any subdomain at any step. We also introduce a new technique: Exponential Decay Error Estimates, to prove the convergence of the Schwarz Methods, with...

Parareal operator splitting techniques for multi-scale reaction waves: Numerical analysis and strategies

Max Duarte, Marc Massot, Stéphane Descombes (2011)

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

In this paper, we investigate the coupling between operator splitting techniques and a time parallelization scheme, the parareal algorithm, as a numerical strategy for the simulation of reaction-diffusion equations modelling multi-scale reaction waves. This type of problems induces peculiar difficulties and potentially large stiffness which stem from the broad spectrum of temporal scales in the nonlinear chemical source term as well as from the presence of large spatial gradients in the reactive...

Periodic conservative solutions of the Camassa–Holm equation

Helge Holden, Xavier Raynaud (2008)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

We show that the periodic Camassa–Holm equation u t - u x x t + 3 u u x - 2 u x u x x - u u x x x = 0 possesses a global continuous semigroup of weak conservative solutions for initial data u | t = 0 in H per 1 . The result is obtained by introducing a coordinate transformation into Lagrangian coordinates. To characterize conservative solutions it is necessary to include the energy density given by the positive Radon measure μ with μ ac = ( u 2 + u x 2 ) d x . The total energy is preserved by the solution.
