A higher order pressure segregation scheme for the time-dependent magnetohydrodynamics equations

Yun-Bo Yang, Yao-Lin Jiang, Qiong-Xiang Kong (2019)

Applications of Mathematics

A higher order pressure segregation scheme for the time-dependent incompressible magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) equations is presented. This scheme allows us to decouple the MHD system into two sub-problems at each time step. First, a coupled linear elliptic system is solved for the velocity and the magnetic field. And then, a Poisson-Neumann problem is treated for the pressure. The stability is analyzed and the error analysis is accomplished by interpreting this segregated scheme as a higher order...

A least-squares method for the numerical solution of the Dirichlet problem for the elliptic monge − ampère equation in dimension two

Alexandre Caboussat, Roland Glowinski, Danny C. Sorensen (2013)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We address in this article the computation of the convex solutions of the Dirichlet problem for the real elliptic Monge − Ampère equation for general convex domains in two dimensions. The method we discuss combines a least-squares formulation with a relaxation method. This approach leads to a sequence of Poisson − Dirichlet problems and another sequence of low dimensional algebraic eigenvalue problems of a new type. Mixed finite element approximations with a smoothing procedure are used for the...

A local projection stabilization finite element method with nonlinear crosswind diffusion for convection-diffusion-reaction equations

Gabriel R. Barrenechea, Volker John, Petr Knobloch (2013)

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

An extension of the local projection stabilization (LPS) finite element method for convection-diffusion-reaction equations is presented and analyzed, both in the steady-state and the transient setting. In addition to the standard LPS method, a nonlinear crosswind diffusion term is introduced that accounts for the reduction of spurious oscillations. The existence of a solution can be proved and, depending on the choice of the stabilization parameter, also its uniqueness. Error estimates are derived...

A localized orthogonal decomposition method for semi-linear elliptic problems

Patrick Henning, Axel Målqvist, Daniel Peterseim (2014)

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

In this paper we propose and analyze a localized orthogonal decomposition (LOD) method for solving semi-linear elliptic problems with heterogeneous and highly variable coefficient functions. This Galerkin-type method is based on a generalized finite element basis that spans a low dimensional multiscale space. The basis is assembled by performing localized linear fine-scale computations on small patches that have a diameter of order H | log (H) | where H is the coarse mesh size. Without any assumptions...

A matching of singularities in domain decomposition methods for reaction-diffusion problems with discontinuous coefficients

Chokri Chniti (2011)

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

In this paper we certify that the same approach proposed in previous works by Chniti et al. [C. R. Acad. Sci. 342 (2006) 883–886; CALCOLO 45 (2008) 111–147; J. Sci. Comput. 38 (2009) 207–228] can be applied to more general operators with strong heterogeneity in the coefficients. We consider here the case of reaction-diffusion problems with piecewise constant coefficients. The problem reduces to determining the coefficients of some transmission conditions to obtain fast convergence of domain decomposition...

A mimetic discretization method for linear elasticity

Lourenco Beirão Da Veiga (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

A Mimetic Discretization method for the linear elasticity problem in mixed weakly symmetric form is developed. The scheme is shown to converge linearly in the mesh size, independently of the incompressibility parameter λ, provided the discrete scalar product satisfies two given conditions. Finally, a family of algebraic scalar products which respect the above conditions is detailed.

A Mixed Formulation of the Monge-Kantorovich Equations

John W. Barrett, Leonid Prigozhin (2007)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

We introduce and analyse a mixed formulation of the Monge-Kantorovich equations, which express optimality conditions for the mass transportation problem with cost proportional to distance. Furthermore, we introduce and analyse the finite element approximation of this formulation using the lowest order Raviart-Thomas element. Finally, we present some numerical experiments, where both the optimal transport density and the associated Kantorovich potential are computed for a coupling problem and problems...

A mixed-FEM and BEM coupling for the approximation of the scattering of thermal waves in locally non-homogeneous media

María-Luisa Rapún, Francisco-Javier Sayas (2006)

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

This paper proposes and analyzes a BEM-FEM scheme to approximate a time-harmonic diffusion problem in the plane with non-constant coefficients in a bounded area. The model is set as a Helmholtz transmission problem with adsorption and with non-constant coefficients in a bounded domain. We reformulate the problem as a four-field system. For the temperature and the heat flux we use piecewise constant functions and lowest order Raviart-Thomas elements associated to a triangulation approximating the...

A multiscale mortar multipoint flux mixed finite element method

Mary Fanett Wheeler, Guangri Xue, Ivan Yotov (2012)

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

In this paper, we develop a multiscale mortar multipoint flux mixed finite element method for second order elliptic problems. The equations in the coarse elements (or subdomains) are discretized on a fine grid scale by a multipoint flux mixed finite element method that reduces to cell-centered finite differences on irregular grids. The subdomain grids do not have to match across the interfaces. Continuity of flux between coarse elements is imposed via a mortar finite element space on a coarse grid...

A new error correction method for the stationary Navier-Stokes equations based on two local Gauss integrations

Yun-Bo Yang, Qiong-Xiang Kong (2017)

Applications of Mathematics

A new error correction method for the stationary Navier-Stokes equations based on two local Gauss integrations is presented. Applying the orthogonal projection technique, we introduce two local Gauss integrations as a stabilizing term in the error correction method, and derive a new error correction method. In both the coarse solution computation step and the error computation step, a locally stabilizing term based on two local Gauss integrations is introduced. The stability and convergence of the...

A new mixed finite element method based on the Crank-Nicolson scheme for Burgers' equation

Xiaohui Hu, Pengzhan Huang, Xinlong Feng (2016)

Applications of Mathematics

In this paper, a new mixed finite element method is used to approximate the solution as well as the flux of the 2D Burgers’ equation. Based on this new formulation, we give the corresponding stable conforming finite element approximation for the P 0 2 - P 1 pair by using the Crank-Nicolson time-discretization scheme. Optimal error estimates are obtained. Finally, numerical experiments show the efficiency of the new mixed method and justify the theoretical results.
