Book Finite Elements and Fast Iterative Solvers

Download or read book Finite Elements and Fast Iterative Solvers written by Howard C. Elman and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 495 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes why and how to do Scientific Computing for fundamental models of fluid flow. It contains introduction, motivation, analysis, and algorithms and is closely tied to freely available MATLAB codes that implement the methods described. The focus is on finite element approximation methods and fast iterative solution methods for the consequent linear(ized) systems arising in important problems that model incompressible fluid flow. The problems addressed are the Poisson equation, Convection-Diffusion problem, Stokes problem and Navier-Stokes problem, including new material on time-dependent problems and models of multi-physics. The corresponding iterative algebra based on preconditioned Krylov subspace and multigrid techniques is for symmetric and positive definite, nonsymmetric positive definite, symmetric indefinite and nonsymmetric indefinite matrix systems respectively. For each problem and associated solvers there is a description of how to compute together with theoretical analysis that guides the choice of approaches and describes what happens in practice in the many illustrative numerical results throughout the book (computed with the freely downloadable IFISS software). All of the numerical results should be reproducible by readers who have access to MATLAB and there is considerable scope for experimentation in the "computational laboratory" provided by the software. Developments in the field since the first edition was published have been represented in three new chapters covering optimization with PDE constraints (Chapter 5); solution of unsteady Navier-Stokes equations (Chapter 10); solution of models of buoyancy-driven flow (Chapter 11). Each chapter has many theoretical problems and practical computer exercises that involve the use of the IFISS software. This book is suitable as an introduction to iterative linear solvers or more generally as a model of Scientific Computing at an advanced undergraduate or beginning graduate level.

Book Numerical Methods for Mixed Finite Element Problems

Download or read book Numerical Methods for Mixed Finite Element Problems written by Jean Deteix and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-09-24 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on iterative solvers and preconditioners for mixed finite element methods. It provides an overview of some of the state-of-the-art solvers for discrete systems with constraints such as those which arise from mixed formulations. Starting by recalling the basic theory of mixed finite element methods, the book goes on to discuss the augmented Lagrangian method and gives a summary of the standard iterative methods, describing their usage for mixed methods. Here, preconditioners are built from an approximate factorisation of the mixed system. A first set of applications is considered for incompressible elasticity problems and flow problems, including non-linear models. An account of the mixed formulation for Dirichlet’s boundary conditions is then given before turning to contact problems, where contact between incompressible bodies leads to problems with two constraints. This book is aimed at graduate students and researchers in the field of numerical methods and scientific computing.

Book Rapid Solution of Finite Element Equations on Locally Refined Grids by Multi level Methods

Download or read book Rapid Solution of Finite Element Equations on Locally Refined Grids by Multi level Methods written by John R. Van Rosendale and published by . This book was released on 1980 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis is concerned with the use of multi-level methods to solve the linear systems arising from finite element discretizations of elliptic equations. In all, three multi-level methods are considered. The first of these is applicable only to quasi-uniform grids, but is simpler than other algorithms considered in previous theoretical work. The other two algorithms are applicable to both quasi-uniform grids, and locally refined grids, those grids on which the size of the largest and smallest elements many differ by an arbitrarily large factor. All three algorithms are asymptotically optimal, producing good solutions in O(N) operations on a finite element grid with N elements. These asymptotically optimal complexity bounds for the last two algorithms are the first such bounds for multi-level methods on locally refined grids. One of these algorithms achieves this O(N) complexity bound under weaker than expected conditions on the dimensions of the finite element spaces used by the algorithm.

Book A Simple Introduction to the Mixed Finite Element Method

Download or read book A Simple Introduction to the Mixed Finite Element Method written by Gabriel N. Gatica and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2014-01-09 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main purpose of this book is to provide a simple and accessible introduction to the mixed finite element method as a fundamental tool to numerically solve a wide class of boundary value problems arising in physics and engineering sciences. The book is based on material that was taught in corresponding undergraduate and graduate courses at the Universidad de Concepcion, Concepcion, Chile, during the last 7 years. As compared with several other classical books in the subject, the main features of the present one have to do, on one hand, with an attempt of presenting and explaining most of the details in the proofs and in the different applications. In particular several results and aspects of the corresponding analysis that are usually available only in papers or proceedings are included here.

Book Iterative Methods in Scientific Computing and Their Applications

Download or read book Iterative Methods in Scientific Computing and Their Applications written by Raymond Chan and published by Springer. This book was released on 1997-04 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Because of the rapid evolution of the development of this field, as well as the fact that iterative methods are not often developed in a generic form for general applications, there is a lack of published materials that treat the topic properly and fully. These lectures from the Winter School on Iterative Methods in Scientific Computing and their Applications aims to bridge such a gap in the literature.

Book On Conforming Mixed Finite Element Methods for the Inhomogeneous Stationary Navier Stokes Equations

Download or read book On Conforming Mixed Finite Element Methods for the Inhomogeneous Stationary Navier Stokes Equations written by Max D. Gunzburger and published by . This book was released on 1982 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "We consider the stationary Navier-Stokes equations in the case where both the partial differential equations and boundary conditions are inhomogeneous. Under certain conditions on the data, we prove the existence and uniqueness of the solution of a weak formulation of the equations. Next, a conforming mixed finite element method is presented and optimal estimates for the error of the approximate solution are provided. In addition, the convergence properties of iterative methods for the solution of the discrete nonlinear algebraic systems resulting from the finite element algorithm are analyzed. Numerical examples, using an efficient choice of finite element spaces, are also provided" -- abstract.
