Iteratively solving a kind of Signorini transmission problem in a unbounded domain

Qiya Hu, Dehao Yu (2005)

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

In this paper, we are concerned with a kind of Signorini transmission problem in a unbounded domain. A variational inequality is derived when discretizing this problem by coupled FEM-BEM. To solve such variational inequality, an iterative method, which can be viewed as a variant of the D-N alternative method, will be introduced. In the iterative method, the finite element part and the boundary element part can be solved independently. It will be shown that the convergence speed of this iteration...

L∞(L2) and L∞(L∞) error estimates for mixed methods for integro-differential equations of parabolic type

Ziwen Jiang (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Error estimates in L∞(0,T;L2(Ω)), L∞(0,T;L2(Ω)2), L∞(0,T;L∞(Ω)), L∞(0,T;L∞(Ω)2), Ω in 2 , are derived for a mixed finite element method for the initial-boundary value problem for integro-differential equation u t = div { a u + 0 t b 1 u d τ + 0 t 𝐜 u d τ } + f based on the Raviart-Thomas space Vh x Wh ⊂ H(div;Ω) x L2(Ω). Optimal order estimates are obtained for the approximation of u,ut in L∞(0,T;L2(Ω)) and the associated velocity p in L∞(0,T;L2(Ω)2), divp in L∞(0,T;L2(Ω)). Quasi-optimal order estimates are obtained for the approximation...

Monte Carlo Random Walk Simulations Based on Distributed Order Differential Equations with Applications to Cell Biology

Andries, Erik, Umarov, Sabir, Steinberg, Stanly (2006)

Fractional Calculus and Applied Analysis

Mathematics Subject Classification: 65C05, 60G50, 39A10, 92C37In this paper the multi-dimensional Monte-Carlo random walk simulation models governed by distributed fractional order differential equations (DODEs) and multi-term fractional order differential equations are constructed. The construction is based on the discretization leading to a generalized difference scheme (containing a finite number of terms in the time step and infinite number of terms in the space step) of the Cauchy problem for...
