On some implicit and semi-implicit staggered schemes for the shallow water and Euler equations

R. Herbin, W. Kheriji, J.-C. Latché (2014)

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

In this paper, we propose implicit and semi-implicit in time finite volume schemes for the barotropic Euler equations (hence, as a particular case, for the shallow water equations) and for the full Euler equations, based on staggered discretizations. For structured meshes, we use the MAC finite volume scheme, and, for general mixed quadrangular/hexahedral and simplicial meshes, we use the discrete unknowns of the Rannacher−Turek or Crouzeix−Raviart finite elements. We first show that a solution...

On some inequalities for solutions of equations describing the motion of a viscous compressible heat-conducting capillary fluid bounded by a free surface

Ewa Zadrzyńska, Wojciech M. Zajączkowski (2001)

Applicationes Mathematicae

We derive inequalities for a local solution of a free boundary problem for a viscous compressible heat-conducting capillary fluid. The inequalities are crucial in proving the global existence of solutions belonging to certain anisotropic Sobolev-Slobodetskii space and close to an equilibrium state.

On some properties of solutions of transonic potential flow problems

Hans-Peter Gittel (1989)

Aplikace matematiky

The paper deals with solutions of transonic potential flow problems handled in the weak form or as variational inequalities. Using suitable generalized methods, which are well known for elliptic partial differential equations of the second order, some properties of these solutions are derived. A maximum principle, a comparison principle and some conclusions from both ones can be established.

On some properties of the solution of the differential equation u ' ' + 2 u ' r = u - u 3

Valter Šeda, Ján Pekár (1990)

Aplikace matematiky

In the paper it is shown that each solution u ( r , α ) ot the initial value problem (2), (3) has a finite limit for r , and an asymptotic formula for the nontrivial solution u ( r , α ) tending to 0 is given. Further, the existence of such a solutions is established by examining the number of zeros of two different solutions u ( r , α ¯ ) , u ( r , α ^ ) .

On Spectral Stability of Solitary Waves of Nonlinear Dirac Equation in 1D⋆⋆

G. Berkolaiko, A. Comech (2012)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

We study the spectral stability of solitary wave solutions to the nonlinear Dirac equation in one dimension. We focus on the Dirac equation with cubic nonlinearity, known as the Soler model in (1+1) dimensions and also as the massive Gross-Neveu model. Presented numerical computations of the spectrum of linearization at a solitary wave show that the solitary waves are spectrally stable. We corroborate our results by finding explicit expressions for...
