Tangential fields in optical diffraction problems

Krček, Jiří, Vlček, Jaroslav, Žídek, Arnošt (2013)

Programs and Algorithms of Numerical Mathematics

Optical diffraction for periodical interface belongs to relatively fewer exploited application of boundary integral equations method. Our contribution presents the formulation of diffraction problem based on vector tangential fields, for which the periodical Green function of Helmholtz equation is of key importance. There are discussed properties of obtained boundary operators with singular kernel and a numerical implementation is proposed.

The Cauchy problem for the homogeneous time-dependent Oseen system in 3 : spatial decay of the velocity

Paul Deuring (2013)

Mathematica Bohemica

We consider the homogeneous time-dependent Oseen system in the whole space 3 . The initial data is assumed to behave as O ( | x | - 1 - ϵ ) , and its gradient as O ( | x | - 3 / 2 - ϵ ) , when | x | tends to infinity, where ϵ is a fixed positive number. Then we show that the velocity u decays according to the equation | u ( x , t ) | = O ( | x | - 1 ) , and its spatial gradient x u decreases with the rate | x | - 3 / 2 , for | x | tending to infinity, uniformly with respect to the time variable t . Since these decay rates are optimal even in the stationary case, they should also be the best possible...

The combination technique for a two-dimensional convection-diffusion problem with exponential layers

Sebastian Franz, Fang Liu, Hans-Görg Roos, Martin Stynes, Aihui Zhou (2009)

Applications of Mathematics

Convection-diffusion problems posed on the unit square and with solutions displaying exponential layers are solved using a sparse grid Galerkin finite element method with Shishkin meshes. Writing N for the maximum number of mesh intervals in each coordinate direction, our “combination” method simply adds or subtracts solutions that have been computed by the Galerkin FEM on N × N , N × N and N × N meshes. It is shown that the combination FEM yields (up to a factor ln N ) the same order of accuracy in the associated...
