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 (2007)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

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 the...

A multilevel method with correction by aggregation for solving discrete elliptic problems

Radim Blaheta (1986)

Aplikace matematiky

The author studies the behaviour of a multi-level method that combines the Jacobi iterations and the correction by aggragation of unknowns. Our considerations are restricted to a simple one-dimensional example, which allows us to employ the technique of the Fourier analysis. Despite of this restriction we are able to demonstrate differences between the behaviour of the algorithm considered and of multigrid methods employing interpolation instead of aggregation.

A multiscale correction method for local singular perturbations of the boundary

Marc Dambrine, Grégory Vial (2007)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

In this work, we consider singular perturbations of the boundary of a smooth domain. We describe the asymptotic behavior of the solution uE of a second order elliptic equation posed in the perturbed domain with respect to the size parameter ε of the deformation. We are also interested in the variations of the energy functional. We propose a numerical method for the approximation of uE based on a multiscale superposition of the unperturbed solution u0 and a profile defined in a model domain. We...

A Multiscale Enrichment Procedure for Nonlinear Monotone Operators

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

In this paper, multiscale finite element methods (MsFEMs) and domain decomposition techniques are developed for a class of nonlinear elliptic problems with high-contrast coefficients. In the process, existing work on linear problems [Y. Efendiev, J. Galvis, R. Lazarov, S. Margenov and J.

A Multiscale Model Reduction Method for Partial Differential Equations

Maolin Ci, Thomas Y. Hou, Zuoqiang Shi (2014)

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

We propose a multiscale model reduction method for partial differential equations. The main purpose of this method is to derive an effective equation for multiscale problems without scale separation. An essential ingredient of our method is to decompose the harmonic coordinates into a smooth part and a highly oscillatory part so that the smooth part is invertible and the highly oscillatory part is small. Such a decomposition plays a key role in our construction of the effective equation. We show...

A multiscale mortar multipoint flux mixed finite element method

Mary Fanett Wheeler, Guangri Xue, Ivan Yotov (2012)

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

In this paper, we develop a multiscale mortar multipoint flux mixed finite element method for second order elliptic problems. The equations in the coarse elements (or subdomains) are discretized on a fine grid scale by a multipoint flux mixed finite element method that reduces to cell-centered finite differences on irregular grids. The subdomain grids do not have to match across the interfaces. Continuity of flux between coarse elements is imposed via a mortar finite element space on a coarse grid...
