A mixed–FEM and BEM coupling for a three-dimensional eddy current problem

Salim Meddahi, Virginia Selgas (2003)

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

We study in this paper the electromagnetic field generated in a conductor by an alternating current density. The resulting interface problem (see Bossavit (1993)) between the metal and the dielectric medium is treated by a mixed–FEM and BEM coupling method. We prove that our BEM-FEM formulation is well posed and that it leads to a convergent Galerkin method.

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 new H(div)-conforming p-interpolation operator in two dimensions

Alexei Bespalov, Norbert Heuer (2011)

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

In this paper we construct a new H(div)-conforming projection-based p-interpolation operator that assumes only Hr(K) ∩ 𝐇 ˜ -1/2(div, K)-regularity (r > 0) on the reference element (either triangle or square) K. We show that this operator is stable...

A posteriori error estimates for linear exterior problems via mixed-FEM and DtN mappings

Mauricio A. Barrientos, Gabriel N. Gatica, Matthias Maischak (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

In this paper we combine the dual-mixed finite element method with a Dirichlet-to-Neumann mapping (given in terms of a boundary integral operator) to solve linear exterior transmission problems in the plane. As a model we consider a second order elliptic equation in divergence form coupled with the Laplace equation in the exterior unbounded region. We show that the resulting mixed variational formulation and an associated discrete scheme using Raviart-Thomas spaces are well posed, and derive the...

A preconditioner for the FETI-DP method for mortar-type Crouzeix-Raviart element discretization

Chunmei Wang (2014)

Applications of Mathematics

In this paper, we consider mortar-type Crouzeix-Raviart element discretizations for second order elliptic problems with discontinuous coefficients. A preconditioner for the FETI-DP method is proposed. We prove that the condition number of the preconditioned operator is bounded by ( 1 + log ( H / h ) ) 2 , where H and h are mesh sizes. Finally, numerical tests are presented to verify the theoretical results.

A well-conditioned integral equation for iterative solution of scattering problems with a variable Leontovitch boundary condition

Sébastien Pernet (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

The construction of a well-conditioned integral equation for iterative solution of scattering problems with a variable Leontovitch boundary condition is proposed. A suitable parametrix is obtained by using a new unknown and an approximation of the transparency condition. We prove the well-posedness of the equation for any wavenumber. Finally, some numerical comparisons with well-tried method prove the efficiency of the new formulation.

Accurate and online-efficient evaluation of the a posteriori error bound in the reduced basis method

Fabien Casenave, Alexandre Ern, Tony Lelièvre (2014)

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

The reduced basis method is a model reduction technique yielding substantial savings of computational time when a solution to a parametrized equation has to be computed for many values of the parameter. Certification of the approximation is possible by means of an a posteriori error bound. Under appropriate assumptions, this error bound is computed with an algorithm of complexity independent of the size of the full problem. In practice, the evaluation of the error bound can become very sensitive...

An introduction to hierarchical matrices

Wolfgang Hackbusch, Lars Grasedyck, Steffen Börm (2002)

Mathematica Bohemica

We give a short introduction to a method for the data-sparse approximation of matrices resulting from the discretisation of non-local operators occurring in boundary integral methods or as the inverses of partial differential operators. The result of the approximation will be the so-called hierarchical matrices (or short ℋ -matrices). These matrices form a subset of the set of all matrices and have a data-sparse representation. The essential operations for these matrices (matrix-vector and matrix-matrix...

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 fast boundary-integral approximations for modeling electrostatic contributions of molecular binding

Amelia B. Kreienkamp, Lucy Y. Liu, Mona S. Minkara, Matthew G. Knepley, Jaydeep P. Bardhan, Mala L. Radhakrishnan (2013)

Molecular Based Mathematical Biology

We analyze and suggest improvements to a recently developed approximate continuum-electrostatic model for proteins. The model, called BIBEE/I (boundary-integral based electrostatics estimation with interpolation), was able to estimate electrostatic solvation free energies to within a mean unsigned error of 4% on a test set of more than 600 proteins¶a significant improvement over previous BIBEE models. In this work, we tested the BIBEE/I model for its capability to predict residue-by-residue interactions...
