New mixed finite volume methods for second order eliptic problems

Kwang Y. Kim (2006)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Similarity:

In this paper we introduce and analyze new mixed finite volume methods for second order elliptic problems which are based on (div)- approximations for the vector variable and approximations for the scalar variable. The discretization is fulfilled by combining the ideas of the traditional finite volume box method and the local discontinuous Galerkin method. We propose two different types of methods, called Methods I and II, and show that they have distinct advantages over the mixed...

A mixed-FEM and BEM coupling for the approximation of the scattering of thermal waves in locally non-homogeneous media

María-Luisa Rapún, Francisco-Javier Sayas (2006)

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

Similarity:

This paper proposes and analyzes a BEM-FEM scheme to approximate a time-harmonic diffusion problem in the plane with non-constant coefficients in a bounded area. The model is set as a Helmholtz transmission problem with adsorption and with non-constant coefficients in a bounded domain. We reformulate the problem as a four-field system. For the temperature and the heat flux we use piecewise constant functions and lowest order Raviart-Thomas elements associated to a triangulation approximating...

A continuous finite element method with face penalty to approximate Friedrichs' systems

Erik Burman, Alexandre Ern (2007)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Similarity:

A continuous finite element method to approximate Friedrichs' systems is proposed and analyzed. Stability is achieved by penalizing the jumps across mesh interfaces of the normal derivative of some components of the discrete solution. The convergence analysis leads to optimal convergence rates in the graph norm and suboptimal of order ½ convergence rates in the -norm. A variant of the method specialized to Friedrichs' systems associated with elliptic PDE's in mixed...

Mixed discontinuous Galerkin approximation of the Maxwell operator : the indefinite case

Paul Houston, Ilaria Perugia, Anna Schneebeli, Dominik Schötzau (2005)

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

Similarity:

We present and analyze an interior penalty method for the numerical discretization of the indefinite time-harmonic Maxwell equations in mixed form. The method is based on the mixed discretization of the curl-curl operator developed in [Houston et al., J. Sci. Comp. 22 (2005) 325–356] and can be understood as a non-stabilized variant of the approach proposed in [Perugia et al., Comput. Methods Appl. Mech. Engrg. 191 (2002) 4675–4697]. We show the well-posedness of this approach and derive...

Stabilized Galerkin finite element methods for convection dominated and incompressible flow problems

Gert Lube (1994)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

In this paper, we analyze a class of stabilized finite element formulations used in computation of (i) second order elliptic boundary value problems (diffusion-convection-reaction model) and (ii) the Navier-Stokes problem (incompressible flow model). These stabilization techniques prevent numerical instabilities that might be generated by dominant convection/reaction terms in (i), (ii) or by inappropriate combinations of velocity/pressure interpolation functions in (ii). Stability and...

Finite-element discretizations of a two-dimensional grade-two fluid model

Vivette Girault, Larkin Ridgway Scott (2001)

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

Similarity:

We propose and analyze several finite-element schemes for solving a grade-two fluid model, with a tangential boundary condition, in a two-dimensional polygon. The exact problem is split into a generalized Stokes problem and a transport equation, in such a way that it always has a solution without restriction on the shape of the domain and on the size of the data. The first scheme uses divergence-free discrete velocities and a centered discretization of the transport term, whereas the...

A second-order finite volume element method on quadrilateral meshes for elliptic equations

Min Yang (2006)

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

Similarity:

In this paper, by use of affine biquadratic elements, we construct and analyze a finite volume element scheme for elliptic equations on quadrilateral meshes. The scheme is shown to be of second-order in H 1 -norm, provided that each quadrilateral in partition is almost a parallelogram. Numerical experiments are presented to confirm the usefulness and efficiency of the method.
