An implicit scheme to solve a system of ODEs arising from the space discretization of nonlinear diffusion equations

Éric Boillat (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

In this article, we consider the initial value problem which is obtained after a space discretization (with space step h) of the equations governing the solidification process of a multicomponent alloy. We propose a numerical scheme to solve numerically this initial value problem. We prove an error estimate which is not affected by the step size h chosen in the space discretization. Consequently, our scheme provides global convergence without any stability condition between h and the time...

An iterative method of alternating type for systems with special block matrices

Milan Práger (1991)

Applications of Mathematics

An iterative procedure for systems with matrices originalting from the domain decomposition technique is proposed. The procedure introduces one iteration parameter. The convergence and optimization of the method with respect to the parameter is investigated. The method is intended not as a preconditioner for the CG method but for the independent use.

An unconditionally stable finite element-finite volume pressure correction scheme for the drift-flux model

Laura Gastaldo, Raphaèle Herbin, Jean-Claude Latché (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

We present in this paper a pressure correction scheme for the drift-flux model combining finite element and finite volume discretizations, which is shown to enjoy essential stability features of the continuous problem: the scheme is conservative, the unknowns are kept within their physical bounds and, in the homogeneous case (i.e. when the drift velocity vanishes), the discrete entropy of the system decreases; in addition, when using for the drift velocity a closure law which takes the form of...

An unconditionally stable pressure correction scheme for the compressible barotropic Navier-Stokes equations

Thierry Gallouët, Laura Gastaldo, Raphaele Herbin, Jean-Claude Latché (2008)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

We present in this paper a pressure correction scheme for the barotropic compressible Navier-Stokes equations, which enjoys an unconditional stability property, in the sense that the energy and maximum-principle-based a priori estimates of the continuous problem also hold for the discrete solution. The stability proof is based on two independent results for general finite volume discretizations, both interesting for their own sake: the L2-stability of the discrete advection operator provided it...

An upwinding mixed finite element method for a mean field model of superconducting vortices

Zhiming Chen, Qiang Du (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

In this paper, we construct a combined upwinding and mixed finite element method for the numerical solution of a two-dimensional mean field model of superconducting vortices. An advantage of our method is that it works for any unstructured regular triangulation. A simple convergence analysis is given without resorting to the discrete maximum principle. Numerical examples are also presented.

An XFEM/DG approach for fluid-structure interaction problems with contact

Luca Formaggia, Federico Gatti, Stefano Zonca (2021)

Applications of Mathematics

In this work, we address the problem of fluid-structure interaction (FSI) with moving structures that may come into contact. We propose a penalization contact algorithm implemented in an unfitted numerical framework designed to treat large displacements. In the proposed method, the fluid mesh is fixed and the structure meshes are superimposed to it without any constraint on the conformity. Thanks to the Extended Finite Element Method (XFEM), we can treat discontinuities of the fluid solution on...

Analysis of a coupled BEM/FEM eigensolver for the hydroelastic vibrations problem

Mauricio A. Barrientos, Gabriel N. Gatica, Rodolfo Rodríguez, Marcela E. Torrejón (2004)

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

A coupled finite/boundary element method to approximate the free vibration modes of an elastic structure containing an incompressible fluid is analyzed in this paper. The effect of the fluid is taken into account by means of one of the most usual procedures in engineering practice: an added mass formulation, which is posed in terms of boundary integral equations. Piecewise linear continuous elements are used to discretize the solid displacements and the fluid-solid interface variables. Spectral...

Analysis of a new augmented mixed finite element method for linear elasticity allowing ℝ𝕋 0 - ℙ 1 - ℙ 0 approximations

Gabriel N. Gatica (2006)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

We present a new stabilized mixed finite element method for the linear elasticity problem in ℝ 2 . The approach is based on the introduction of Galerkin least-squares terms arising from the constitutive and equilibrium equations, and from the relation defining the rotation in terms of the displacement. We show that the resulting augmented variational formulation and the associated Galerkin scheme are well posed, and that the latter becomes locking-free and asymptotically locking-free for Dirichlet...
