On Finite Element Methods for 2nd order (semi–) periodic Eigenvalue Problems

De Schepper, H. (2000)

Serdica Mathematical Journal

We deal with a class of elliptic eigenvalue problems (EVPs) on a rectangle Ω ⊂ R^2 , with periodic or semi–periodic boundary conditions (BCs) on ∂Ω. First, for both types of EVPs, we pass to a proper variational formulation which is shown to fit into the general framework of abstract EVPs for symmetric, bounded, strongly coercive bilinear forms in Hilbert spaces, see, e.g., [13, §6.2]. Next, we consider finite element methods (FEMs) without and with numerical quadrature. The aim of the paper is...

On fluid structure interaction problems of the heated cylinder approximated by the finite element method

Vacek, Karel, Sváček, Petr (2025)

Programs and Algorithms of Numerical Mathematics

This study addresses the problem of the flow around circular cylinders with mixed convection. The focus is on suppressing the vortex-induced vibration (VIV) of the cylinder through heating. The problem is mathematically described using the arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) method and Boussinesq approximation for simulating fluid flow and heat transfer. The fluid flow is modeled via incompressible Navier-Stokes equations in the ALE formulation with source term, which represent the density variation...

On fully practical finite element approximations of degenerate Cahn-Hilliard systems

John W. Barrett, James F. Blowey, Harald Garcke (2001)

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

We consider a model for phase separation of a multi-component alloy with non-smooth free energy and a degenerate mobility matrix. In addition to showing well-posedness and stability bounds for our approximation, we prove convergence in one space dimension. Furthermore an iterative scheme for solving the resulting nonlinear discrete system is analysed. We discuss also how our approximation has to be modified in order to be applicable to a logarithmic free energy. Finally numerical experiments with...

On fuzzy input data and the worst scenario method

Jan Chleboun (2003)

Applications of Mathematics

In practice, input data entering a state problem are almost always uncertain to some extent. Thus it is natural to consider a set 𝒰 a d of admissible input data instead of a fixed and unique input. The worst scenario method takes into account all states generated by 𝒰 a d and maximizes a functional criterion reflecting a particular feature of the state solution, as local stress, displacement, or temperature, for instance. An increase in the criterion value indicates a deterioration in the featured quantity....

On generalized difference equations

Miroslav Bosák, Jiří Gregor (1987)

Aplikace matematiky

In this paper linear difference equations with several independent variables are considered, whose solutions are functions defined on sets of n -dimensional vectors with integer coordinates. These equations could be called partial difference equations. Existence and uniqueness theorems for these equations are formulated and proved, and interconnections of such results with the theory of linear multidimensional digital systems are investigated. Numerous examples show essential differences of the results...
