Electromagnetic scattering at composite objects : a novel multi-trace boundary integral formulation

Xavier Claeys, Ralf Hiptmair (2012)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Since matrix compression has paved the way for discretizing the boundary integral equation formulations of electromagnetics scattering on very fine meshes, preconditioners for the resulting linear systems have become key to efficient simulations. Operator preconditioning based on Calderón identities has proved to be a powerful device for devising preconditioners. However, this is not possible for the usual first-kind boundary formulations for electromagnetic...

Équations de von Kármán. II. Approximation de la solution

Július Cibula (1985)

Aplikace matematiky

Dans l'article, on a donné quelques conditions suffisantes pour l'unicité locale et globale de la solution du problème. On a construit une solution variationnelle du problème par la méthode de Newton-Kantorovitch et la méthode du prolongement continu avec ces conditions suffisantes pour l'unicité.

Evolution Problems and Minimizing Movements

Ugo Gianazza, Massimo Gobbino, Giuseppe Savarè (1994)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti Lincei. Matematica e Applicazioni

We recall the definition of Minimizing Movements, suggested by E. De Giorgi, and we consider some applications to evolution problems. With regards to ordinary differential equations, we prove in particular a generalization of maximal slope curves theory to arbitrary metric spaces. On the other hand we present a unifying framework in which some recent conjectures about partial differential equations can be treated and solved. At the end we consider some open problems.

Existence of solutions and monotone iterative method for infinite systems of parabolic differential-functional equations

Stanisław Brzychczy (1999)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

We consider the Fourier first boundary value problem for an infinite system of weakly coupled nonlinear differential-functional equations. To prove the existence and uniqueness of solution, we apply a monotone iterative method using J. Szarski's results on differential-functional inequalities and a comparison theorem for infinite systems.

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

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 rate....

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

We propose a semidiscrete scheme provided with order-preserving and L1 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 L1 and L∞, respectively, of the scheme are established. Under certain hypotheses on the data, we also derive L1 convergence without any...

Finite-volume level set method and its adaptive version in completing subjective contours

Zuzana Krivá (2007)

Kybernetika

In this paper we deal with a problem of segmentation (including missing boundary completion) and subjective contour creation. For the corresponding models we apply the semi-implicit finite volume numerical schemes leading to methods which are robust, efficient and stable without any restriction to a time step. The finite volume discretization enables to use the spatial adaptivity and thus improve significantly the computational time. The computational results related to image segmentation with partly...

Finite-volume solvers for a multilayer Saint-Venant system

Emmanuel Audusse, Marie-Odile Bristeau (2007)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

We consider the numerical investigation of two hyperbolic shallow water models. We focus on the treatment of the hyperbolic part. We first recall some efficient finite volume solvers for the classical Saint-Venant system. Then we study their extensions to a new multilayer Saint-Venant system. Finally, we use a kinetic solver to perform some numerical tests which prove that the 2D multilayer Saint-Venant system is a relevant alternative to D hydrostatic Navier-Stokes equations.

Galerkin approximation with proper orthogonal decomposition : new error estimates and illustrative examples

Dominique Chapelle, Asven Gariah, Jacques Sainte-Marie (2012)

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

We propose a numerical analysis of proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) model reductions in which a priori error estimates are expressed in terms of the projection errors that are controlled in the construction of POD bases. These error estimates are derived for generic parabolic evolution PDEs, including with non-linear Lipschitz right-hand sides, and for wave-like equations. A specific projection continuity norm appears in the estimates and – whereas a general uniform continuity bound seems out...
