Download or read book Transport Processes at Fluidic Interfaces written by Dieter Bothe and published by Birkhäuser. This book was released on 2017-07-13 with total page 677 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are several physico-chemical processes that determine the behavior of multiphase fluid systems – e.g., the fluid dynamics in the different phases and the dynamics of the interface(s), mass transport between the fluids, adsorption effects at the interface, and transport of surfactants on the interface – and result in heterogeneous interface properties. In general, these processes are strongly coupled and local properties of the interface play a crucial role. A thorough understanding of the behavior of such complex flow problems must be based on physically sound mathematical models, which especially account for the local processes at the interface. This book presents recent findings on the rigorous derivation and mathematical analysis of such models and on the development of numerical methods for direct numerical simulations. Validation results are based on specifically designed experiments using high-resolution experimental techniques. A special feature of this book is its focus on an interdisciplinary research approach combining Applied Analysis, Numerical Mathematics, Interface Physics and Chemistry, as well as relevant research areas in the Engineering Sciences. The contributions originated from the joint interdisciplinary research projects in the DFG Priority Programme SPP 1506 “Transport Processes at Fluidic Interfaces.”

Download or read book The Finite Element Method for Initial Value Problems written by Karan S. Surana and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-10-17 with total page 694 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unlike most finite element books that cover time dependent processes (IVPs) in a cursory manner, The Finite Element Method for Initial Value Problems: Mathematics and Computations focuses on the mathematical details as well as applications of space-time coupled and space-time decoupled finite element methods for IVPs. Space-time operator classification, space-time methods of approximation, and space-time calculus of variations are used to establish unconditional stability of space-time methods during the evolution. Space-time decoupled methods are also presented with the same rigor. Stability of space-time decoupled methods, time integration of ODEs including the finite element method in time are presented in detail with applications. Modal basis, normal mode synthesis techniques, error estimation, and a posteriori error computations for space-time coupled as well as space-time decoupled methods are presented. This book is aimed at a second-semester graduate level course in FEM.

This book was released on 2013 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a study of an application of finite element methods designed for convection-dominated, time-dependent partial differential equations. Specifically, this work analyzes finite element discretizations that employ moving meshes in order to solve linear differential equations over space-time domains. These methods can lead to significant savings in computation costs for problems having solutions that develop steep moving fronts, as moving meshes have the ability to track these fronts continuously with a high concentration of nodes; this flexibility allows for much larger time steps than standard tensor product finite elements, while maintaining high resolution of fine structures that sweep through the spatial domain. The main results are a priori and a posteriori error bounds for some moving finite element methods of high order and general time-stepping schemes. These finite element methods follow a method of lines approach for propagating the solution in time, though the error analysis places a strong emphasis on the properties inherited by the finite element aspects of the discrete problem. Another focus of this work is to determine practical and efficient schemes for adaptive meshing and mesh motion. As a result of this research, a solver has been written in C++ that is applicable to time-dependent linear convection-diffusion-reaction equations with a single dimension for the spatial.

This book was released on 2013 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Accurate prediction of structural responses under combined, extreme environments often involves a wide range of spatial and temporal scales. In the traditional analysis of structural response problems, time dependent problems are generally solved using a semi-discrete finite element method. These methods have difficulty simulating high frequency ranges, long time durations, and capturing sharp gradients and discontinuities. Some limitations include time step constraints or a lack of convergence. The space-time finite element method based on time-discontinuous formulation extends the discretization into the temporal domain and is able to address some of these concerns. The constraints on the time-step are relaxed and the method has had some success in accurately capturing sharp gradients and discontinuities. For applications featured by multiscale responses in both space and time, the regular space-time finite element method is unable to capture the full spectrum of the response. An enriched space-time finite element method is proposed based on a coupled space-time approximation. Enrichment is introduced into the space-time framework based on the extended finite element method (XFEM). The effects of continuous enrichment functions are explored for high frequency wave propagation. Previous works are based primarily on enrichment in time. Numerical solvers are developed and benchmarked for the space-time system on high-performance platform. The method's robustness is demonstrated by convergence studies using energy error norms. Improvements are observed in terms of the convergence properties of the enriched space-time finite element method over the traditional space-time finite element method for problems with fine scale features. As a result, enrichment may be considered an alternative to mesh refinement. The numerical instability associated with the high condition number of the enriched space-time analogous stiffness matrices is studied. The factors affecting the condition numbers are explored and a Jacobi preconditioner is applied to reduce the condition numbers. Programs to model example problems are developed using Fortran. The computational expense for these programs is reduced by using advanced programming libraries utilizing GPGPU. It is concluded that the proposed formulation is robust and accurate but the high condition number of the system can pose difficulties for its implementation.

Book excerpt: PARTITION OF UNITY METHODS Master the latest tool in computational mechanics with this brand-new resource from distinguished leaders in the field While it is the number one tool for computer aided design and engineering, the finite element method (FEM) has difficulties with discontinuities, singularities, and moving boundaries. Partition of unity methods addresses these challenges and is now increasingly implemented in commercially available software. Partition of Unity Methods delivers a detailed overview of its fundamentals, in particular the extended finite element method for applications in solving moving boundary problems. The distinguished academics and authors introduce the XFEM as a natural extension of the traditional finite element method (FEM), through straightforward one-dimensional examples which form the basis for the subsequent introduction of higher dimensional problems. This book allows readers to fully understand and utilize XFEM just as it becomes ever more crucial to industry practice. Partition of Unity Methods explores all essential topics on this key new technology, including: Coverage of the difficulties faced by the finite element method and the impetus behind the development of XFEM The basics of the finite element method, with discussions of finite element formulation of linear elasticity and the calculation of the force vector An introduction to the fundamentals of enrichment A revisitation of the partition of unity enrichment A description of the geometry of enrichment features, with discussions of level sets for stationary interfaces Application of XFEM to bio-film, gradient theories, and three dimensional crack propagation Perfect for researchers and postdoctoral candidates working in the field of computational mechanics, Partition of Unity Methods also has a place in the libraries of senior undergraduate and graduate students working in the field.

Download or read book A Streamline Upwind Full Galerkin Method for Space time Convection Dominated transport Problems written by and published by . This book was released on with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An original space-time finite element approach for the solution of the diffusion-convection equation is proposed in this paper. A slight manipulation of the differential equation suggests that transient transport problems may in fact be seen as steady-state space-time transport problems, accurately and easily soluble by the standard Galerkin technique. However, concerning convective transport involving sharp fronts or coarse discretization, it is shown that implementation of dissipation along space-time trajectories significantly improves the solutions. Classical comparative test problems are run to establish the performances of this method, and to show the limits of the more sophisticated Petrov and Taylor-Galerkin schemes. Evocation of a possible space-time anisotropy generated by usual finite difference time-stepping procedures, as well as comparative analysis of amplification matrices, help to understand the accuracy and the robustness of the proposed approach.
