Nonobtuse Triangulation of Polygons.
In this paper, we present a numerical approach to evolution of decohesion in laminated composites based on incremental variational problems. An energy-based framework is adopted, in which we characterize the system by the stored energy and dissipation functionals quantifying reversible and irreversible processes, respectively. The time-discrete evolution then follows from a solution of incremental minimization problems, which are converted to a fully discrete form by employing the conforming finite...
Using Burgers’ equation with mixed Neumann–Dirichlet boundary conditions, we highlight a problem that can arise in the numerical approximation of nonlinear dynamical systems on computers with a finite precision floating point number system. We describe the dynamical system generated by Burgers’ equation with mixed boundary conditions, summarize some of its properties and analyze the equilibrium states for finite dimensional dynamical systems that are generated by numerical approximations of this...
We study numerically the semiclassical limit for the nonlinear Schrödinger equation thanks to a modification of the Madelung transform due to Grenier. This approach allows for the presence of vacuum. Even if the mesh size and the time step do not depend on the Planck constant, we recover the position and current densities in the semiclassical limit, with a numerical rate of convergence in accordance with the theoretical results, before shocks appear in the limiting Euler equation. By using simple...

The paper deals with numerical solution of internal flow problems. It mentions a long tradition of mathematical modeling of internal flow, especially transonic flow at our department. Several models of flow based on potential equation, Euler equations, Navier-Stokes and Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes equations with proper closure are considered. Some mathematical and numerical properties of the model are mentioned and numerical results achieved by in-house developed methods are presented.
In this paper, we consider the blow-up solutions for a quasilinear parabolic partial differential equation . We numerically investigate the blow-up rates of these solutions by using a numerical method which is recently proposed by the authors [3].
