Numerical analysis of a Stokes interface problem based on formulation using the characteristic function

Yoshiki Sugitani (2017)

Applications of Mathematics

Numerical analysis of a model Stokes interface problem with the homogeneous Dirichlet boundary condition is considered. The interface condition is interpreted as an additional singular force field to the Stokes equations using the characteristic function. The finite element method is applied after introducing a regularization of the singular source term. Consequently, the error is divided into the regularization and discretization parts which are studied separately. As a result, error estimates...

Numerical analysis of a transmission problem with Signorini contact using mixed-FEM and BEM

Gabriel N. Gatica, Matthias Maischak, Ernst P. Stephan (2011)

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

This paper is concerned with the dual formulation of the interface problem consisting of a linear partial differential equation with variable coefficients in some bounded Lipschitz domain Ω in n (n ≥ 2) and the Laplace equation with some radiation condition in the unbounded exterior domain Ωc:= n Ω ¯ . The two problems are coupled by transmission and Signorini contact conditions on the interface Γ = ∂Ω. The exterior part of the interface problem is rewritten using a Neumann to Dirichlet mapping (NtD)...

Numerical analysis of some optimal control problems governed by a class of quasilinear elliptic equations

Eduardo Casas, Fredi Tröltzsch (2011)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

In this paper, we carry out the numerical analysis of a distributed optimal control problem governed by a quasilinear elliptic equation of non-monotone type. The goal is to prove the strong convergence of the discretization of the problem by finite elements. The main issue is to get error estimates for the discretization of the state equation. One of the difficulties in this analysis is that, in spite of the partial differential equation has a unique solution for any given control, the uniqueness...

Numerical analysis of the general biharmonic problem by the finite element method

Jiří Hřebíček (1982)

Aplikace matematiky

The present paper deals with solving the general biharmonic problem by the finite element method using curved triangular finit C 1 -elements introduced by Ženíšek. The effect of numerical integration is analysed in the case of mixed boundary conditions and sufficient conditions for the uniform V O h -ellipticity are found.

Numerical analysis of the meshless element-free Galerkin method for hyperbolic initial-boundary value problems

Yaozong Tang, Xiaolin Li (2017)

Applications of Mathematics

The meshless element-free Galerkin method is developed for numerical analysis of hyperbolic initial-boundary value problems. In this method, only scattered nodes are required in the domain. Computational formulae of the method are analyzed in detail. Error estimates and convergence are also derived theoretically and verified numerically. Numerical examples validate the performance and efficiency of the method.

Numerical analysis of the quasistatic thermoviscoelastic thermistor problem

José R. Fernández (2006)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

In this work, the quasistatic thermoviscoelastic thermistor problem is considered. The thermistor model describes the combination of the effects due to the heat, electrical current conduction and Joule's heat generation. The variational formulation leads to a coupled system of nonlinear variational equations for which the existence of a weak solution is recalled. Then, a fully discrete algorithm is introduced based on the finite element method to approximate the spatial variable and an Euler scheme...

Numerical approximation of dynamic deformations of a thermoviscoelastic rod against an elastic obstacle

Maria I. M. Copetti (2004)

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

In this paper we consider a hyperbolic-parabolic problem that models the longitudinal deformations of a thermoviscoelastic rod supported unilaterally by an elastic obstacle. The existence and uniqueness of a strong solution is shown. A finite element approximation is proposed and its convergence is proved. Numerical experiments are reported.

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.
