Combined finite element -- finite volume method (convergence analysis)

Similarity:

We present an efficient numerical method for solving viscous compressible fluid flows. The basic idea is to combine finite volume and finite element methods in an appropriate way. Thus nonlinear convective terms are discretized by the finite volume method over a finite volume mesh dual to a triangular grid. Diffusion terms are discretized by the conforming piecewise linear finite element method. In the paper we study theoretical properties of this scheme for the scalar nonlinear convection-diffusion...

Analysis of gradient flow of a regularized Mumford-Shah functional for image segmentation and image inpainting

Similarity:

This paper studies the gradient flow of a regularized Mumford-Shah functional proposed by Ambrosio and Tortorelli (1990, 1992) for image segmentation, and adopted by Esedoglu and Shen (2002) for image inpainting. It is shown that the gradient flow with L 2 × L initial data possesses a global weak solution, and it has a unique global in time strong solution, which has at most finite number of point singularities in the space-time, when the initial data are in H 1 × H 1 L . A family of fully discrete approximation...

Boundary controllability of the finite-difference space semi-discretizations of the beam equation

Liliana León, Enrique Zuazua (2002)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

We propose a finite difference semi-discrete scheme for the approximation of the boundary exact controllability problem of the 1-D beam equation modelling the transversal vibrations of a beam with fixed ends. First of all we show that, due to the high frequency spurious oscillations, the uniform (with respect to the mesh-size) controllability property of the semi-discrete model fails in the natural functional setting. We then prove that there are two ways of restoring the uniform controllability...

Finite element approximation for degenerate parabolic equations. An application of nonlinear semigroup theory

Akira Mizutani, Norikazu Saito, Takashi Suzuki (2005)

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

Similarity:

Finite element approximation for degenerate parabolic equations is considered. We propose a semidiscrete scheme provided with order-preserving and L 1 contraction properties, making use of piecewise linear trial functions and the lumping mass technique. Those properties allow us to apply nonlinear semigroup theory, and the wellposedness and stability in L 1 and L , respectively, of the scheme are established. Under certain hypotheses on the data, we also derive L 1 convergence without any convergence...
