Book Adaptive Wavelet Methods for Variational Formulations of Nonlinear Elliptic PDEs on Tensor Product Domains

Download or read book Adaptive Wavelet Methods for Variational Formulations of Nonlinear Elliptic PDEs on Tensor Product Domains written by Roland Pabel and published by Logos Verlag Berlin GmbH. This book was released on 2015-09-30 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis is concerned with the numerical solution of boundary value problems (BVPs) governed by nonlinear elliptic partial differential equations (PDEs). To iteratively solve such BVPs, it is of primal importance to develop efficient schemes that guarantee convergence of the numerically approximated PDE solutions towards the exact solution. The new adaptive wavelet theory guarantees convergence of adaptive schemes with fixed approximation rates. Furthermore, optimal, i.e., linear, complexity estimates of such adaptive solution methods have been established. These achievements are possible since wavelets allow for a completely new perspective to attack BVPs: namely, to represent PDEs in their original infinite dimensional realm. Wavelets in this context represent function bases with special analytical properties, e.g., the wavelets considered herein are piecewise polynomials, have compact support and norm equivalences between certain function spaces and the $ell_2$ sequence spaces of expansion coefficients exist. This theoretical framework is implemented in the course of this thesis in a truly dimensionally unrestricted adaptive wavelet program code, which allows one to harness the proven theoretical results for the first time when numerically solving the above mentioned BVPs. Numerical studies of 2D and 3D PDEs and BVPs demonstrate the feasibility and performance of the developed schemes. The BVPs are solved using an adaptive Uzawa algorithm, which requires repeated solution of nonlinear PDE sub-problems. This thesis presents for the first time a numerically competitive implementation of a new theoretical paradigm to solve nonlinear elliptic PDEs in arbitrary space dimensions with a complete convergence and complexity theory.

Book Adaptive wavelet frame methods for nonlinear elliptic problems

Download or read book Adaptive wavelet frame methods for nonlinear elliptic problems written by Jens Kappei and published by Logos Verlag Berlin GmbH. This book was released on 2012-02-06 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last ten years, adaptive wavelet methods have turned out to be a powerful tool in the numerical treatment of operator equations given on a bounded domain or closed manifold. In this work, we consider semi-nonlinear operator equations, including an elliptic linear operator as well as a nonlinear monotone one. Since the classical approach to construct a wavelet Riesz basis for the solution space is still afflicted with some notable problems, we use the weaker concept of wavelet frames to design an adaptive algorithm for the numerical solution of problems of this type. Choosing an appropriate overlapping decomposition of the given domain, a suitable frame system can be constructed easily. Applying it to the given continuous problem yields a discrete, bi-infinite nonlinear system of equations, which is shown to be solvable by a damped Richardson iteration method. We then successively introduce all building blocks for the numerical implementation of the iteration method. Here, we concentrate on the evaluation of the discrete nonlinearity, where we show that the previously developed auxiliary of tree-structured index sets can be generalized to the wavelet frame setting in a proper way. This allows an effective numerical treatment of the nonlinearity by so-called aggregated trees. Choosing the error tolerances appropriately, we show that our adaptive scheme is asymptotically optimal with respect to aggregated tree-structured index sets, i.e., it realizes the same convergence rate as the sequence of best N-term frame approximations of the solution respecting aggregated trees. Moreover, under the assumption of a sufficiently precise numerical quadrature method, the computational cost of our algorithm stays the same order as the number of wavelets used by it. The theoretical results are widely confirmed by one- and two-dimensional test problems over non-trivial bounded domains.

Book Tensor Spaces and Numerical Tensor Calculus

Download or read book Tensor Spaces and Numerical Tensor Calculus written by Wolfgang Hackbusch and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-12-16 with total page 605 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Special numerical techniques are already needed to deal with n × n matrices for large n. Tensor data are of size n × n ×...× n=nd, where nd exceeds the computer memory by far. They appear for problems of high spatial dimensions. Since standard methods fail, a particular tensor calculus is needed to treat such problems. This monograph describes the methods by which tensors can be practically treated and shows how numerical operations can be performed. Applications include problems from quantum chemistry, approximation of multivariate functions, solution of partial differential equations, for example with stochastic coefficients, and more. In addition to containing corrections of the unavoidable misprints, this revised second edition includes new parts ranging from single additional statements to new subchapters. The book is mainly addressed to numerical mathematicians and researchers working with high-dimensional data. It also touches problems related to Geometric Algebra.

Book Reduced Basis Methods for Partial Differential Equations

Download or read book Reduced Basis Methods for Partial Differential Equations written by Alfio Quarteroni and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-08-19 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a basic introduction to reduced basis (RB) methods for problems involving the repeated solution of partial differential equations (PDEs) arising from engineering and applied sciences, such as PDEs depending on several parameters and PDE-constrained optimization. The book presents a general mathematical formulation of RB methods, analyzes their fundamental theoretical properties, discusses the related algorithmic and implementation aspects, and highlights their built-in algebraic and geometric structures. More specifically, the authors discuss alternative strategies for constructing accurate RB spaces using greedy algorithms and proper orthogonal decomposition techniques, investigate their approximation properties and analyze offline-online decomposition strategies aimed at the reduction of computational complexity. Furthermore, they carry out both a priori and a posteriori error analysis. The whole mathematical presentation is made more stimulating by the use of representative examples of applicative interest in the context of both linear and nonlinear PDEs. Moreover, the inclusion of many pseudocodes allows the reader to easily implement the algorithms illustrated throughout the text. The book will be ideal for upper undergraduate students and, more generally, people interested in scientific computing. All these pseudocodes are in fact implemented in a MATLAB package that is freely available at https://github.com/redbkit

Book The Isogeometric Boundary Element Method

Download or read book The Isogeometric Boundary Element Method written by Gernot Beer and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-09-21 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses the introduction of isogeometric technology to the boundary element method (BEM) in order to establish an improved link between simulation and computer aided design (CAD) that does not require mesh generation. In the isogeometric BEM, non-uniform rational B-splines replace the Lagrange polynomials used in conventional BEM. This may seem a trivial exercise, but if implemented rigorously, it has profound implications for the programming, resulting in software that is extremely user friendly and efficient. The BEM is ideally suited for linking with CAD, as both rely on the definition of objects by boundary representation. The book shows how the isogeometric philosophy can be implemented and how its benefits can be maximised with a minimum of user effort. Using several examples, ranging from potential problems to elasticity, it demonstrates that the isogeometric approach results in a drastic reduction in the number of unknowns and an increase in the quality of the results. In some cases even exact solutions without refinement are possible. The book also presents a number of practical applications, demonstrating that the development is not only of academic interest. It then elegantly addresses heterogeneous and non-linear problems using isogeometric concepts, and tests them on several examples, including a severely non-linear problem in viscous flow. The book makes a significant contribution towards a seamless integration of CAD and simulation, which eliminates the need for tedious mesh generation and provides high-quality results with minimum user intervention and computing.
