On a hybrid finite-volume-particle method

Alina Chertock, Alexander Kurganov (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

We present a hybrid finite-volume-particle numerical method for computing the transport of a passive pollutant by a flow. The flow is modeled by the one- and two-dimensional Saint-Venant system of shallow water equations and the pollutant propagation is described by a transport equation. This paper is an extension of our previous work [Chertock, Kurganov and Petrova, J. Sci. Comput. (to appear)], where the one-dimensional finite-volume-particle method has been proposed. The core idea behind the...

On a shape control problem for the stationary Navier-Stokes equations

Max D. Gunzburger, Hongchul Kim, Sandro Manservisi (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

An optimal shape control problem for the stationary Navier-Stokes system is considered. An incompressible, viscous flow in a two-dimensional channel is studied to determine the shape of part of the boundary that minimizes the viscous drag. The adjoint method and the Lagrangian multiplier method are used to derive the optimality system for the shape gradient of the design functional.

On a stabilized colocated Finite Volume scheme for the Stokes problem

Robert Eymard, Raphaèle Herbin, Jean Claude Latché (2006)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

We present and analyse in this paper a novel colocated Finite Volume scheme for the solution of the Stokes problem. It has been developed following two main ideas. On one hand, the discretization of the pressure gradient term is built as the discrete transposed of the velocity divergence term, the latter being evaluated using a natural finite volume approximation; this leads to a non-standard interpolation formula for the expression of the pressure on the edges of the control volumes. On the other...

On discontinuous Galerkin methods for nonlinear convection-diffusion problems and compressible flow

Vít Dolejší, Miloslav Feistauer, Christoph Schwab (2002)

Mathematica Bohemica

The paper is concerned with the discontinuous Galerkin finite element method for the numerical solution of nonlinear conservation laws and nonlinear convection-diffusion problems with emphasis on applications to the simulation of compressible flows. We discuss two versions of this method: (a) Finite volume discontinuous Galerkin method, which is a generalization of the combined finite volume—finite element method. Its advantage is the use of only one mesh (in contrast to the combined finite volume—finite...

On equilibrium finite elements in three-dimensional case

Sergey Korotov (1997)

Applications of Mathematics

The space of divergence-free functions with vanishing normal flux on the boundary is approximated by subspaces of finite elements that have the same property. The easiest way of generating basis functions in these subspaces is considered.

On evolution Galerkin methods for the Maxwell and the linearized Euler equations

Mária Lukáčová-Medviďová, Jitka Saibertová, Gerald G. Warnecke, Yousef Zahaykah (2004)

Applications of Mathematics

The subject of the paper is the derivation and analysis of evolution Galerkin schemes for the two dimensional Maxwell and linearized Euler equations. The aim is to construct a method which takes into account better the infinitely many directions of propagation of waves. To do this the initial function is evolved using the characteristic cone and then projected onto a finite element space. We derive the divergence-free property and estimate the dispersion relation as well. We present some numerical...

On nonoverlapping domain decomposition methods for the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations

Xuejun Xu, C. O. Chow, S. H. Lui (2005)

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

In this paper, a Dirichlet-Neumann substructuring domain decomposition method is presented for a finite element approximation to the nonlinear Navier-Stokes equations. It is shown that the Dirichlet-Neumann domain decomposition sequence converges geometrically to the true solution provided the Reynolds number is sufficiently small. In this method, subdomain problems are linear. Other version where the subdomain problems are linear Stokes problems is also presented.
