On a conservation upwind finite element scheme for convective diffusion equations
Analyzing the validity and success of a data assimilation algorithmwhen some state variable observations are not available is an important problem in meteorology and engineering. We present an improved data assimilation algorithm for recovering the exact full reference solution (i.e. the velocity and temperature) of the 3D Planetary Geostrophic model, at an exponential rate in time, by employing coarse spatial mesh observations of the temperature alone. This provides, in the case of this paradigm,...
We propose a general approach for the numerical approximation of optimal control problems governed by a linear advection–diffusion equation, based on a stabilization method applied to the lagrangian functional, rather than stabilizing the state and adjoint equations separately. This approach yields a coherently stabilized control problem. Besides, it allows a straightforward a posteriori error estimate in which estimates of higher order terms are needless. Our a posteriori estimates stems from splitting...

The one-dimensional steady-state convection-diffusion problem for the unknown temperature of a medium entering the interval with the temperature and flowing with a positive velocity is studied. The medium is being heated with an intensity corresponding to for a constant . We are looking for a velocity with a given average such that the outflow temperature is maximal and discuss the influence of the boundary condition at the point on the “maximizing” function .
