We give a constructive proof that for any bounded domain of the class there exists a strongly regular family of boundary-fitted tetrahedral meshes. We adopt a refinement technique introduced by Křížek and modify it so that a refined mesh is again boundary-fitted. An alternative regularity criterion based on similarity with the Sommerville tetrahedron is used and shown to be equivalent to other standard criteria. The sequence of regularities during the refinement process is estimated from below...
The motivation for this paper comes from physical problems defined on bounded smooth domains in 3D. Numerical schemes for these problems are usually defined on some polyhedral domains and if there is some additional compactness result available, then the method may converge even if only in the sense of compacts. Hence, we use the idea of meshing the whole space and defining the approximative domains as a subset of this partition. Numerical schemes for which quantities are defined on dual partitions...
The coupled Navier-Stokes/Allen-Cahn system is a simple model to describe phase separation in two-component systems interacting with an incompressible fluid flow. We demonstrate the weak-strong uniqueness result for this system in a bounded domain in three spatial dimensions which implies that when a strong solution exists, then a weak solution emanating from the same data coincides with the strong solution on its whole life span. The proof of given assertion relies on a form of a relative entropy...
In this paper we summarize three recent results in computational geometry, that were motivated by applications in mathematical modelling of fluids. The cornerstone of all three results is the genuine construction developed by D. Sommerville already in 1923. We show Sommerville tetrahedra can be effectively used as an underlying mesh with additional properties and also can help us prove a result on boundary-fitted meshes. Finally we demonstrate the universality of the Sommerville's construction by...
