EasyMSG : tools and techniques for an adaptive overlapping in SPMD programming

Pascal Havé (2002)

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

During the development of a parallel solver for Maxwell equations by integral formulations and Fast Multipole Method (FMM), we needed to optimize a critical part including a lot of communications and computations. Generally, many parallel programs need to communicate, but choosing explicitly the way and the instant may decrease the efficiency of the overall program. So, the overlapping of computations and communications may be a way to reduce this drawback. We will see a implementation of this techniques...

Edge finite elements for the approximation of Maxwell resolvent operator

Daniele Boffi, Lucia Gastaldi (2002)

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

In this paper we consider the Maxwell resolvent operator and its finite element approximation. In this framework it is natural the use of the edge element spaces and to impose the divergence constraint in a weak sense with the introduction of a Lagrange multiplier, following an idea by Kikuchi [14]. We shall review some of the known properties for edge element approximations and prove some new result. In particular we shall prove a uniform convergence in the L 2 norm for the sequence of discrete operators....

Effect of Electrostriction on the Self-organization of Porous Nanostructures in Anodized Aluminum Oxide

L. G. Stanton, A. A. Golovin (2008)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

The self-organization of porous nanostructures in anodic metal oxide is considered. A mathematical model which incorporates the chemical reactions at the metal-oxide and oxide-electrolyte interfaces and elastic stress caused by the electrostrictive effects is developed. It is shown through linear stability analysis, that a short-wave instability exists in certain parameter regimes which can lead to the formation of hexagonally ordered pores observed in anodized aluminum oxide.

Electromagnetic scattering at composite objects : a novel multi-trace boundary integral formulation

Xavier Claeys, Ralf Hiptmair (2012)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Since matrix compression has paved the way for discretizing the boundary integral equation formulations of electromagnetics scattering on very fine meshes, preconditioners for the resulting linear systems have become key to efficient simulations. Operator preconditioning based on Calderón identities has proved to be a powerful device for devising preconditioners. However, this is not possible for the usual first-kind boundary formulations for electromagnetic...

Electrowetting of a 3D drop: numerical modelling with electrostatic vector fields

Patrick Ciarlet Jr., Claire Scheid (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

The electrowetting process is commonly used to handle very small amounts of liquid on a solid surface. This process can be modelled mathematically with the help of the shape optimization theory. However, solving numerically the resulting shape optimization problem is a very complex issue, even for reduced models that occur in simplified geometries. Recently, the second author obtained convincing results in the 2D axisymmetric case. In this paper, we propose and analyze a method that is suitable...

Exemples d’instabilités pour des équations d’ondes non linéaires

Guy Métivier (2002/2003)

Séminaire Bourbaki

Le but de l’exposé est de donner un guide de lecture pour un article de Gilles Lebeau où il est montré que le problème de Cauchy pour l’équation d’onde surcritique ( t 2 - Δ x ) u + u p = 0 est mal posé au sens de Hadamard dans l’espace d’énergie, pour p 7 en dimension 3. La preuve repose sur des constructions d’optique géométrique et des analyses d’instabilité dans des régimes fortement non linéaires. On donnera les étapes de l’analyse en essayant de les situer dans leur contexte plus général : construction de solutions...
