Book Discontinuous Galerkin Methods

Download or read book Discontinuous Galerkin Methods written by Bernardo Cockburn and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A class of finite element methods, the Discontinuous Galerkin Methods (DGM), has been under rapid development recently and has found its use very quickly in such diverse applications as aeroacoustics, semi-conductor device simula tion, turbomachinery, turbulent flows, materials processing, MHD and plasma simulations, and image processing. While there has been a lot of interest from mathematicians, physicists and engineers in DGM, only scattered information is available and there has been no prior effort in organizing and publishing the existing volume of knowledge on this subject. In May 24-26, 1999 we organized in Newport (Rhode Island, USA), the first international symposium on DGM with equal emphasis on the theory, numerical implementation, and applications. Eighteen invited speakers, lead ers in the field, and thirty-two contributors presented various aspects and addressed open issues on DGM. In this volume we include forty-nine papers presented in the Symposium as well as a survey paper written by the organiz ers. All papers were peer-reviewed. A summary of these papers is included in the survey paper, which also provides a historical perspective of the evolution of DGM and its relation to other numerical methods. We hope this volume will become a major reference in this topic. It is intended for students and researchers who work in theory and application of numerical solution of convection dominated partial differential equations. The papers were written with the assumption that the reader has some knowledge of classical finite elements and finite volume methods.

Book Mathematical Aspects of Discontinuous Galerkin Methods

Download or read book Mathematical Aspects of Discontinuous Galerkin Methods written by Daniele Antonio Di Pietro and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-11-03 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book introduces the basic ideas to build discontinuous Galerkin methods and, at the same time, incorporates several recent mathematical developments. The presentation is to a large extent self-contained and is intended for graduate students and researchers in numerical analysis. The material covers a wide range of model problems, both steady and unsteady, elaborating from advection-reaction and diffusion problems up to the Navier-Stokes equations and Friedrichs' systems. Both finite element and finite volume viewpoints are exploited to convey the main ideas underlying the design of the approximation. The analysis is presented in a rigorous mathematical setting where discrete counterparts of the key properties of the continuous problem are identified. The framework encompasses fairly general meshes regarding element shapes and hanging nodes. Salient implementation issues are also addressed.

Book A Parallel High order Discontinuous Galerkin Solver for the Unsteady Incompressible Navier Stokes Equations in Complex Geometries

Download or read book A Parallel High order Discontinuous Galerkin Solver for the Unsteady Incompressible Navier Stokes Equations in Complex Geometries written by Khosro Shahbazi and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We verify the accuracy and stability of the method on several two- and three-dimensional benchmarking problems. On the challenging Orr-Sommerfeld test problem, the equal-order polynomial approximation of the velocity and pressure (Pk - Pk) leads to a stable and accurate solution, while the mixed-order method (Pk - Pk-1) yields a non-physical instability. In simulating vortex shedding past a square cylinder at Re = 100 and in simulating a three-dimensional backward-facing step flow using the equal-order method, excellent agreement with other computational and experimental results are obtained. The developed solver is used to study flow through a two-dimensional bileaflet mechanical heart valve geometry. We conclude that the proposed discontinuous Galerkin method with the Pk - Pk formulation is a suitable scheme for simulations of flows through mechanical heart valve geometries. We develop a parallel method and corresponding code for the numerical solution of the unsteady incompressible Navier-Stokes equations, with application to the direct numerical simulation of transitional and turbulent flows through mechanical heart valves. The solver is based on a simple and efficient scheme, namely a high-order discontinuous Galerkin method on triangular and tetrahedral elements. Spatial discretization of the Stokes operator employed both equal-order (Pk - Pk) and mixed-order (Pk - Pk-1) velocity and pressure approximations. The interior penalty method and local Lax-Friedrichs fluxes are used for the discretizations of the viscous term and the nonlinear term in the divergence form, respectively. A second order approximate algebraic splitting is used to decouple the velocity and pressure calculations leading to an algebraic Helmholtz equation for each component of the velocity and a consistent Poisson equation for the pressure. The consistent Poisson operator is replaced by an equivalent operator, namely that arising from the interior penalty discretization of the standard Poisson operator with appropriate boundary conditions. An explicit lower bound is derived for the penalty parameter of the interior penalty method that ensures the coercivity of the bilinear form. Efficiency aspects of the scheme include knowing an explicit expression for the penalty parameter of the interior penalty method and compact stencil size for the discretizations of the velocity and pressure equations and the nonlinear term.

Book High Order Methods for Computational Physics

Download or read book High Order Methods for Computational Physics written by Timothy J. Barth and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 594 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The development of high-order accurate numerical discretization techniques for irregular domains and meshes is often cited as one of the remaining chal lenges facing the field of computational fluid dynamics. In structural me chanics, the advantages of high-order finite element approximation are widely recognized. This is especially true when high-order element approximation is combined with element refinement (h-p refinement). In computational fluid dynamics, high-order discretization methods are infrequently used in the com putation of compressible fluid flow. The hyperbolic nature of the governing equations and the presence of solution discontinuities makes high-order ac curacy difficult to achieve. Consequently, second-order accurate methods are still predominately used in industrial applications even though evidence sug gests that high-order methods may offer a way to significantly improve the resolution and accuracy for these calculations. To address this important topic, a special course was jointly organized by the Applied Vehicle Technology Panel of NATO's Research and Technology Organization (RTO), the von Karman Institute for Fluid Dynamics, and the Numerical Aerospace Simulation Division at the NASA Ames Research Cen ter. The NATO RTO sponsored course entitled "Higher Order Discretization Methods in Computational Fluid Dynamics" was held September 14-18,1998 at the von Karman Institute for Fluid Dynamics in Belgium and September 21-25,1998 at the NASA Ames Research Center in the United States.

Book Geometric Analysis and Nonlinear Partial Differential Equations

Download or read book Geometric Analysis and Nonlinear Partial Differential Equations written by Stefan Hildebrandt and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 663 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is not a textbook, but rather a coherent collection of papers from the field of partial differential equations. Nevertheless we believe that it may very well serve as a good introduction into some topics of this classical field of analysis which, despite of its long history, is highly modem and well prospering. Richard Courant wrote in 1950: "It has always been a temptationfor mathematicians to present the crystallized product of their thought as a deductive general theory and to relegate the individual mathematical phenomenon into the role of an example. The reader who submits to the dogmatic form will be easily indoctrinated. Enlightenment, however, must come from an understanding of motives; live mathematical development springs from specific natural problems which can be easily understood, but whose solutions are difficult and demand new methods or more general significance. " We think that many, if not all, papers of this book are written in this spirit and will give the reader access to an important branch of analysis by exhibiting interest ing problems worth to be studied. Most of the collected articles have an extensive introductory part describing the history of the presented problems as well as the state of the art and offer a well chosen guide to the literature. This way the papers became lengthier than customary these days, but the level of presentation is such that an advanced graduate student should find the various articles both readable and stimulating.

Book An Invitation to the Theory of the Hybridizable Discontinuous Galerkin Method

Download or read book An Invitation to the Theory of the Hybridizable Discontinuous Galerkin Method written by Shukai Du and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-08-29 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph requires basic knowledge of the variational theory of elliptic PDE and the techniques used for the analysis of the Finite Element Method. However, all the tools for the analysis of FEM (scaling arguments, finite dimensional estimates in the reference configuration, Piola transforms) are carefully introduced before being used, so that the reader does not need to go over longforgotten textbooks. Readers include: computational mathematicians, numerical analysts, engineers and scientists interested in new and computationally competitive Discontinuous Galerkin methods. The intended audience includes graduate students in computational mathematics, physics, and engineering, since the prerequisites are quite basic for a second year graduate student who has already taken a non necessarily advanced class in the Finite Element method.
