Numerical homogenization of well singularities in the flow transport through heterogeneous porous media: fully discrete scheme

Meiqun Jiang, Xingye Yue (2007)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Motivated by well-driven flow transport in porous media, Chen and Yue proposed a numerical homogenization method for Green function [Multiscale Model. Simul.1 (2003) 260–303]. In that paper, the authors focused on the well pore pressure, so the local error analysis in maximum norm was presented. As a continuation, we will consider a fully discrete scheme and its multiscale error analysis on the velocity field.

Numerical homogenization: survey, new results, and perspectives

Antoine Gloria (2012)

ESAIM: Proceedings

These notes give a state of the art of numerical homogenization methods for linear elliptic equations. The guideline of these notes is analysis. Most of the numerical homogenization methods can be seen as (more or less different) discretizations of the same family of continuous approximate problems, which H-converges to the homogenized problem. Likewise numerical correctors may also be interpreted as approximations of Tartar’s correctors. Hence the...

Numerical integration for high order pyramidal finite elements

Nilima Nigam, Joel Phillips (2012)

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

We examine the effect of numerical integration on the accuracy of high order conforming pyramidal finite element methods. Non-smooth shape functions are indispensable to the construction of pyramidal elements, and this means the conventional treatment of numerical integration, which requires that the finite element approximation space is piecewise polynomial, cannot be applied. We develop an analysis that allows the finite element approximation space to include non-smooth functions and show that,...

Numerical integration in the Trefftz finite element method

Rozehnalová, Petra (2017)

Programs and Algorithms of Numerical Mathematics

Using the high order Trefftz finite element method for solving partial differential equation requires numerical integration of oscillating functions. This integration could be performed, instead of classic techniques, also by the Levin method with some modifications. This paper shortly describes both the Trefftz method and the Levin method with its modification.

Numerical investigation of a new class of waves in an open nonlinear heat-conducting medium

Milena Dimova, Stefka Dimova, Daniela Vasileva (2013)

Open Mathematics

The paper contributes to the problem of finding all possible structures and waves, which may arise and preserve themselves in the open nonlinear medium, described by the mathematical model of heat structures. A new class of self-similar blow-up solutions of this model is constructed numerically and their stability is investigated. An effective and reliable numerical approach is developed and implemented for solving the nonlinear elliptic self-similar problem and the parabolic problem. This approach...

Numerical investigation of dynamic capillary pressure in two-phase flow in porous medium

Radek Fučík, Jiří Mikyška (2011)

Mathematica Bohemica

In order to investigate effects of the dynamic capillary pressure-saturation relationship used in the modelling of a flow in porous media, a one-dimensional fully implicit numerical scheme is proposed. The numerical scheme is used to simulate an experimental procedure using a measured dataset for the sand and fluid properties. Results of simulations using different models for the dynamic effect term in capillary pressure-saturation relationship are presented and discussed.

Numerical minimization of eigenmodes of a membrane with respect to the domain

Édouard Oudet (2004)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

In this paper we introduce a numerical approach adapted to the minimization of the eigenmodes of a membrane with respect to the domain. This method is based on the combination of the Level Set method of S. Osher and J.A. Sethian with the relaxed approach. This algorithm enables both changing the topology and working on a fixed regular grid.

Numerical modelling of steady and unsteady flows of generalized Newtonian fluids

Keslerová, Radka, Trdlička, David, Řezníček, Hynek (2017)

Programs and Algorithms of Numerical Mathematics

This work presents the numerical solution of laminar incompressible viscous flow in a three dimensional branching channel with circular cross section for generalized Newtonian fluids. This model can be generalized by cross model in shear thinning meaning. The governing system of equations is based on the system of balance laws for mass and momentum. Numerical tests are performed on a three dimensional geometry, the branching channel with one entrance and two outlet parts. Numerical solution of the...

Keslerová, Radka, Kozel, Karel (2015)

Programs and Algorithms of Numerical Mathematics

The aim of this paper is to describe the numerical results of numerical modelling of steady flows of laminar incompressible viscous and viscoelastic fluids. The mathematical models are Newtonian and Oldroyd-B models. Both models can be generalized by cross model in shear thinning meaning. Numerical tests are performed on three dimensional geometry, a branched channel with one entrance and two output parts. Numerical solution of the described models is based on cell-centered finite volume method...

Numerical simulation of generalized Newtonian fluids flow in bypass geometry

Keslerová, Radka, Řezníček, Hynek, Padělek, Tomáš (2019)

Programs and Algorithms of Numerical Mathematics

The aim of this work is to present numerical results of non-Newtonian fluid flow in a model of bypass. Different angle of a connection between narrowed channel and the bypass graft is considered. Several rheology viscosity models were used for the non-Newtonian fluid, namely the modified Cross model and the Carreau-Yasuda model. The results of non-Newtonian fluid flow are compared to the results of Newtonian fluid. The fundamental system of equations is the generalized system of Navier-Stokes equations...

Numerical simulation of the motion of a three-dimensional glacier

Marco Picasso, Jacques Rappaz, Adrian Reist (2008)

Annales mathématiques Blaise Pascal

The motion of a three-dimensional glacier is considered. Ice is modeled as an incompressible non-Newtonian fluid. At each time step, given the shape of the glacier, a nonlinear elliptic system has to be solved in order to obtain the two components of the horizontal velocity field. Then, the shape of the glacier is updated by solving a transport equation. Finite element techniques are used to compute the velocity field and to solve the transport equation. Numerical results are compared to experiments...

Virginie Bonnaillie-Noël, Bernard Helffer, Gregory Vial (2010)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We recall here some theoretical results of Helffer et al. [Ann. Inst. H. Poincaré Anal. Non Linéaire (2007) doi:10.1016/j.anihpc.2007.07.004] about minimal partitions and propose numerical computations to check some of their published or unpublished conjectures and exhibit new ones.
