Convergence and asymptotic stabilization for some damped hyperbolic equations with non-isolated equilibria

Felipe Alvarez, Hedy Attouch (2010)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

It is established convergence to a particular equilibrium for weak solutions of abstract linear equations of the second order in time associated with monotone operators with nontrivial kernel. Concerning nonlinear hyperbolic equations with monotone and conservative potentials, it is proved a general asymptotic convergence result in terms of weak and strong topologies of appropriate Hilbert spaces. It is also considered the stabilization of a particular equilibrium via the introduction of an asymptotically...

Convergence of a two-grid algorithm for the control of the wave equation

Liviu Ignat, Enrique Zuazua (2009)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

We analyze the problem of boundary observability of the finite-difference space semidiscretizations of the 2-d wave equation in the square. We prove the uniform (with respect to the meshsize) boundary observability for the solutions obtained by the two-grid preconditioner introduced by Glowinski [9]. Our method uses previously known uniform observability inequalities for low frequency solutions and a dyadic spectral time decomposition. As a consequence we prove the convergence of the two-grid algorithm...

Convergence of discretization procedures for problems whose entropy solutions are uniquely characterized by additional relations

Rainer Ansorge (2003)

Applications of Mathematics

Weak solutions of given problems are sometimes not necessarily unique. Relevant solutions are then picked out of the set of weak solutions by so-called entropy conditions. Connections between the original and the numerical entropy condition were often discussed in the particular case of scalar conservation laws, and also a general theory was presented in the literature for general scalar problems. The entropy conditions were realized by certain inequalities not generalizable to systems of equations...

Convergence of finite difference schemes for viscous and inviscid conservation laws with rough coefficients

Kenneth Hvistendahl Karlsen, Nils Henrik Risebro (2001)

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

We consider the initial value problem for degenerate viscous and inviscid scalar conservation laws where the flux function depends on the spatial location through a “rough” coefficient function k ( x ) . We show that the Engquist-Osher (and hence all monotone) finite difference approximations converge to the unique entropy solution of the governing equation if, among other demands, k ' is in B V , thereby providing alternative (new) existence proofs for entropy solutions of degenerate convection-diffusion equations...

Convergence of Fourier spectral method for resonant long-short nonlinear wave interaction

Abdur Rashid, Shakaib Akram (2010)

Applications of Mathematics

In this paper, the evolution equations with nonlinear term describing the resonance interaction between the long wave and the short wave are studied. The semi-discrete and fully discrete Crank-Nicholson Fourier spectral schemes are given. An energy estimation method is used to obtain error estimates for the approximate solutions. The numerical results obtained are compared with exact solution and found to be in good agreement.

Convergence of implicit Finite Volume methods for scalar conservation laws with discontinuous flux function

Sébastien Martin, Julien Vovelle (2008)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

This paper deals with the problem of numerical approximation in the Cauchy-Dirichlet problem for a scalar conservation law with a flux function having finitely many discontinuities. The well-posedness of this problem was proved by Carrillo [J. Evol. Eq. 3 (2003) 687–705]. Classical numerical methods do not allow us to compute a numerical solution (due to the lack of regularity of the flux). Therefore, we propose an implicit Finite Volume method based on an equivalent formulation of the initial...

Convergence of mass redistribution method for the one-dimensional wave equation with a unilateral constraint at the boundary

Farshid Dabaghi, Adrien Petrov, Jérôme Pousin, Yves Renard (2014)

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

This paper focuses on a one-dimensional wave equation being subjected to a unilateral boundary condition. Under appropriate regularity assumptions on the initial data, a new proof of existence and uniqueness results is proposed. The mass redistribution method, which is based on a redistribution of the body mass such that there is no inertia at the contact node, is introduced and its convergence is proved. Finally, some numerical experiments are reported.
