Including eigenvalues of the plane Orr-Sommerfeld problem

Peter P. Klein (1993)

Applications of Mathematics

In an earlier paper [5] a method for eigenvalue inclussion using a Gerschgorin type theory originating from Donnelly [2] was applied to the plane Orr-Sommerfeld problem in the case of a pure Poiseuile flow. In this paper the same method will be used to deal Poiseuile and Couette flow. Potter [6] has treated this case before with an approximative method.

Is GPU the future of Scientific Computing ?

Georges-Henri Cottet, Jean-Matthieu Etancelin, Franck Perignon, Christophe Picard, Florian De Vuyst, Christophe Labourdette (2013)

Annales mathématiques Blaise Pascal

These past few years, new types of computational architectures based on graphics processors have emerged. These technologies provide important computational resources at low cost and low energy consumption. Lots of developments have been done around GPU and many tools and libraries are now available to implement efficiently softwares on those architectures.This article contains the two contributions of the mini-symposium about GPU organized by Loïc Gouarin (Laboratoire de Mathématiques d’Orsay),...

Non-uniqueness of almost unidirectional inviscid compressible flow

Pavel Šolín, Karel Segeth (2004)

Applications of Mathematics

Our aim is to find roots of the non-unique behavior of gases which can be observed in certain axisymmetric nozzle geometries under special flow regimes. For this purpose, we use several versions of the compressible Euler equations. We show that the main reason for the non-uniqueness is hidden in the energy decomposition into its internal and kinetic parts, and their complementary behavior. It turns out that, at least for inviscid compressible flows, a bifurcation can occur only at flow regimes with...

Numerical analysis of coupling for a kinetic equation

Moulay Tidriri (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

In this paper we introduce a coupled systems of kinetic equations for the linearized Carleman model. We then study the existence theory and the asymptotic behaviour of the resulting coupled problem. In order to solve the coupled problem we propose to use the time marching algorithm. We then develop a convergence theory for the resulting algorithm. Numerical results confirming the theory are then presented.

Numerical analysis of the Navier-Stokes equations

Rolf Rannacher (1993)

Applications of Mathematics

This paper discusses some conceptional questions of the numerical simulation of viscous incompressible flow which are related to the presence of boundaries.

Numerical comparisons of two long-wave limit models

Stéphane Labbé, Lionel Paumond (2004)

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

The Benney-Luke equation (BL) is a model for the evolution of three-dimensional weakly nonlinear, long water waves of small amplitude. In this paper we propose a nearly conservative scheme for the numerical resolution of (BL). Moreover, it is known (Paumond, Differential Integral Equations 16 (2003) 1039–1064; Pego and Quintero, Physica D 132 (1999) 476–496) that (BL) is linked to the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation for almost one-dimensional waves propagating in one direction. We study here numerically...

Numerical solution of a 1-d elastohydrodynamic problem in magnetic storage devices

Iñigo Arregui, José Jesús Cendán, Carlos Parés, Carlos Vázquez (2008)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

In this work we present new numerical methods to simulate the mechanics of head-tape magnetic storage devices. The elastohydrodynamic problem is formulated in terms of a coupled system which is governed by a nonlinear compressible Reynolds equation for the air pressure over the head, and a rod model for the tape displacement. A fixed point algorithm between the solutions of the elastic and hydrodynamic problems is proposed. For the nonlinear Reynolds equation, a characteristics method and a...
