Time-dependent electromagnetic waves in a cavity

Bo Kjellmert, Thomas Strömberg (2009)

Applications of Mathematics

The electromagnetic initial-boundary value problem for a cavity enclosed by perfectly conducting walls is considered. The cavity medium is defined by its permittivity and permeability which vary continuously in space. The electromagnetic field comes from a source in the cavity. The field is described by a magnetic vector potential 𝐀 satisfying a wave equation with initial-boundary conditions. This description through 𝐀 is rigorously shown to give a unique solution of the problem and is the starting...

Towards a two-scale calculus

Augusto Visintin (2006)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We define and characterize weak and strong two-scale convergence in Lp, C0 and other spaces via a transformation of variable, extending Nguetseng's definition. We derive several properties, including weak and strong two-scale compactness; in particular we prove two-scale versions of theorems of Ascoli-Arzelà, Chacon, Riesz, and Vitali. We then approximate two-scale derivatives, and define two-scale convergence in spaces of either weakly or strongly differentiable functions. We also derive...

Two shallow-water type models for viscoelastic flows from kinetic theory for polymers solutions

Gladys Narbona-Reina, Didier Bresch (2013)

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

In this work, depending on the relation between the Deborah, the Reynolds and the aspect ratio numbers, we formally derived shallow-water type systems starting from a micro-macro description for non-Newtonian fluids in a thin domain governed by an elastic dumbbell type model with a slip boundary condition at the bottom. The result has been announced by the authors in [G. Narbona-Reina, D. Bresch, Numer. Math. and Advanced Appl. Springer Verlag (2010)] and in the present paper, we provide a self-contained...

Two-sided symmetric condition in the analysis of magnetic fields with permanent magnets

František Melkes (2005)

Applications of Mathematics

Mathematical treatment of a planar magnetic field excited by permanent magnets is presented. A special two-sided condition for differential magnetic reluctivity is introduced to prove the unique existence of both the weak and the approximate solutions and also a certain error estimate. Notes to numerical algorithm and practical applications are given.

Uniform convergence of local multigrid methods for the time-harmonic Maxwell equation

Huangxin Chen, Ronald H. W. Hoppe, Xuejun Xu (2013)

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

For the efficient numerical solution of indefinite linear systems arising from curl conforming edge element approximations of the time-harmonic Maxwell equation, we consider local multigrid methods (LMM) on adaptively refined meshes. The edge element discretization is done by the lowest order edge elements of Nédélec’s first family. The LMM features local hybrid Hiptmair smoothers of Jacobi and Gauss–Seidel type which are performed only on basis functions associated with newly created edges/nodal...

Weighted regularization for composite materials in electromagnetism

Patrick Ciarlet Jr., François Lefèvre, Stéphanie Lohrengel, Serge Nicaise (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

In this paper, a weighted regularization method for the time-harmonic Maxwell equations with perfect conducting or impedance boundary condition in composite materials is presented. The computational domain Ω is the union of polygonal or polyhedral subdomains made of different materials. As a result, the electromagnetic field presents singularities near geometric singularities, which are the interior and exterior edges and corners. The variational formulation of the weighted regularized problem...
