Solvability and numerical algorithms for a class of variational data assimilation problems

Guri Marchuk, Victor Shutyaev (2002)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

A class of variational data assimilation problems on reconstructing the initial-value functions is considered for the models governed by quasilinear evolution equations. The optimality system is reduced to the equation for the control function. The properties of the control equation are studied and the solvability theorems are proved for linear and quasilinear data assimilation problems. The iterative algorithms for solving the problem are formulated and justified.

Solving a class of Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equations using pseudospectral methods

Mohsen Mehrali-Varjani, Mostafa Shamsi, Alaeddin Malek (2018)

Kybernetika

This paper presents a numerical approach to solve the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) problem which appears in feedback solution of the optimal control problems. In this method, first, by using Chebyshev pseudospectral spatial discretization, the HJB problem is converted to a system of ordinary differential equations with terminal conditions. Second, the time-marching Runge-Kutta method is used to solve the corresponding system of differential equations. Then, an approximate solution for the HJB problem...

Solving the Cahn-Hilliard variational inequality with a semi-smooth Newton method

Luise Blank, Martin Butz, Harald Garcke (2011)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

The Cahn-Hilliard variational inequality is a non-standard parabolic variational inequality of fourth order for which straightforward numerical approaches cannot be applied. We propose a primal-dual active set method which can be interpreted as a semi-smooth Newton method as solution technique for the discretized Cahn-Hilliard variational inequality. A (semi-)implicit Euler discretization is used in time and a piecewise linear finite element discretization of splitting type is used in space leading...

Some abstract error estimates of a finite volume scheme for a nonstationary heat equation on general nonconforming multidimensional spatial meshes

Abdallah Bradji, Jürgen Fuhrmann (2013)

Applications of Mathematics

A general class of nonconforming meshes has been recently studied for stationary anisotropic heterogeneous diffusion problems, see Eymard et al. (IMA J. Numer. Anal. 30 (2010), 1009–1043). Thanks to the basic ideas developed in the stated reference for stationary problems, we derive a new discretization scheme in order to approximate the nonstationary heat problem. The unknowns of this scheme are the values at the centre of the control volumes, at some internal interfaces, and at the mesh points...

Some constructive applications of Λ 2 -representations to integration of PDEs

A. Popov, S. Zadadaev (2000)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Two new applications of Λ 2 -representations of PDEs are presented: 1. Geometric algorithms for numerical integration of PDEs by constructing planimetric discrete nets on the Lobachevsky plane Λ 2 . 2. Employing Λ 2 -representations for the spectral-evolutionary problem for nonlinear PDEs within the inverse scattering problem method.

Some energy conservative schemes for vibro-impacts of a beam on rigid obstacles*

C. Pozzolini, M. Salaun (2011)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Caused by the problem of unilateral contact during vibrations of satellite solar arrays, the aim of this paper is to better understand such a phenomenon. Therefore, it is studied here a simplified model composed by a beam moving between rigid obstacles. Our purpose is to describe and compare some families of fully discretized approximations and their properties, in the case of non-penetration Signorini's conditions. For this, starting from the works of Dumont and Paoli, we adapt to our beam...

Some fast finite-difference solvers for two-dimensional evolutionary equations on special domains

Ta Van Dinh (1982)

Aplikace matematiky

The author proves the existence of the asymptotic error expansion to the Peaceman-Rachford finite-difference scheme for the first boundary value problem of the two-dimensional evolationary equation on the so-called uniform and nearly uniform domains. This expansion leads, by Richardson extrapolation, to a simple process for accelerating the convergence of the method. A numerical example is given.
