The role of Sommerville tetrahedra in numerical mathematics

Hošek, Radim

Similarity:

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...

Convergence of a numerical scheme for a nonlinear oblique derivative boundary value problem

Florian Mehats (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Similarity:

We present here a discretization of a nonlinear oblique derivative boundary value problem for the heat equation in dimension two. This finite difference scheme takes advantages of the structure of the boundary condition, which can be reinterpreted as a Burgers equation in the space variables. This enables to obtain an energy estimate and to prove the convergence of the scheme. We also provide some numerical simulations of this problem and a numerical study of the stability of the...
