Download or read book Superconvergence of Recovered Gradients of Discrete Time Piecewise Linear Galerkin Approximations for Linear and Nonlinear Parabolic Problems written by and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 51 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Superconvergent error estimates in e2(H1) and einfinity(H1) norms are derived for recovered gradients of finite difference in time/piecewise linear Galerkin approximations in space for linear and quasi-nonlinear parabolic problems in two space dimensions. The analysis extends previous results for elliptic problems to the parabolic context, and covers problems in regions with non-smooth boundaries under certain assumptions on the regularity of the solutions.

Book The Gradient Discretisation Method

Download or read book The Gradient Discretisation Method written by Jérôme Droniou and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-08-11 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph presents the Gradient Discretisation Method (GDM), which is a unified convergence analysis framework for numerical methods for elliptic and parabolic partial differential equations. The results obtained by the GDM cover both stationary and transient models; error estimates are provided for linear (and some non-linear) equations, and convergence is established for a wide range of fully non-linear models (e.g. Leray–Lions equations and degenerate parabolic equations such as the Stefan or Richards models). The GDM applies to a diverse range of methods, both classical (conforming, non-conforming, mixed finite elements, discontinuous Galerkin) and modern (mimetic finite differences, hybrid and mixed finite volume, MPFA-O finite volume), some of which can be built on very general meshes.span style="" ms="" mincho";mso-bidi-font-family:="" the="" core="" properties="" and="" analytical="" tools="" required="" to="" work="" within="" gdm="" are="" stressed,="" it="" is="" shown="" that="" scheme="" convergence="" can="" often="" be="" established="" by="" verifying="" a="" small="" number="" of="" properties.="" scope="" some="" featured="" techniques="" results,="" such="" as="" time-space="" compactness="" theorems="" (discrete="" aubin–simon,="" discontinuous="" ascoli–arzela),="" goes="" beyond="" gdm,="" making="" them="" potentially="" applicable="" numerical="" schemes="" not="" (yet)="" known="" fit="" into="" this="" framework.span style="font-family:" ms="" mincho";mso-bidi-font-family:="" this="" monograph="" is="" intended="" for="" graduate="" students,="" researchers="" and="" experts="" in="" the="" field="" of="" numerical="" analysis="" partial="" differential="" equations./ppiiiiibr/i/i/i/i/i/p

Book Superconvergence of Discontinuous Galerkin Method for Linear Hyperbolic Equations

Download or read book Superconvergence of Discontinuous Galerkin Method for Linear Hyperbolic Equations written by Sirvan Rahmati and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis is concerned with the investigation of the superconvergence of the Discontinuous Method for linear conservation laws. We use Fourier analysis to study the superconvergence of the semi-discrete discontinuous Galerkin method for scalar linear advection equations in one spatial dimension. We provide the error bounds and asymptotic errors for initial di erent initial discretizations. For the pedagogical purpose, the errors are computed in two di erent ways. In the rst approach, we compute the di erence between the numerical solution and a special interpolation of the exact solution, and show that it consists of an asymptotic error of order 2k + 1 (where k is the order of polynomial approximation) and a transient error of lower order. In the second approach, we compute the error directly by decomposing it into physical and nonphysical modes, and obtain agreement with the rst approach. We then extend the analysis to vector conservation laws, solved using the Lax-Friedrichs ux. We prove that the superconvergence holds with the same order. The error bounds and asymptotic errors are demonstrated by various numerical experiments for scalar and vector advection equations.

Book Galerkin Finite Element Methods for Parabolic Problems

Download or read book Galerkin Finite Element Methods for Parabolic Problems written by Vidar Thomee and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-04-17 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My purpose in this monograph is to present an essentially self-contained account of the mathematical theory of Galerkin finite element methods as applied to parabolic partial differential equations. The emphases and selection of topics reflects my own involvement in the field over the past 25 years, and my ambition has been to stress ideas and methods of analysis rather than to describe the most general and farreaching results possible. Since the formulation and analysis of Galerkin finite element methods for parabolic problems are generally based on ideas and results from the corresponding theory for stationary elliptic problems, such material is often included in the presentation. The basis of this work is my earlier text entitled Galerkin Finite Element Methods for Parabolic Problems, Springer Lecture Notes in Mathematics, No. 1054, from 1984. This has been out of print for several years, and I have felt a need and been encouraged by colleagues and friends to publish an updated version. In doing so I have included most of the contents of the 14 chapters of the earlier work in an updated and revised form, and added four new chapters, on semigroup methods, on multistep schemes, on incomplete iterative solution of the linear algebraic systems at the time levels, and on semilinear equations. The old chapters on fully discrete methods have been reworked by first treating the time discretization of an abstract differential equation in a Hilbert space setting, and the chapter on the discontinuous Galerkin method has been completely rewritten.

Book Adaptive Discontinuous Galerkin Methods for Fourth Order Problems

Download or read book Adaptive Discontinuous Galerkin Methods for Fourth Order Problems written by Juha Mikael Virtanen and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work is concerned with the derivation of adaptive methods for discontinuous Galerkin approximations of linear fourth order elliptic and parabolic partial differential equations. Adaptive methods are usually based on a posteriori error estimates. To this end, a new residual-based a posteriori error estimator for discontinuous Galerkin approximations to the biharmonic equation with essential boundary conditions is presented. The estimator is shown to be both reliable and efficient with respect to the approximation error measured in terms of a natural energy norm, under minimal regularity assumptions. The reliability bound is based on a new recovery operator, which maps discontinuous finite element spaces to conforming finite element spaces (of two polynomial degrees higher), consisting of triangular or quadrilateral Hsieh-Clough-Tocher macroelements. The efficiency bound is based on bubble function techniques. The performance of the estimator within an h-adaptive mesh refinement procedure is validated through a series of numerical examples, verifying also its asymptotic exactness. Some remarks on the question of proof of convergence of adaptive algorithms for discontinuous Galerkin for fourth order elliptic problems are also presented. Furthermore, we derive a new energy-norm a posteriori error bound for an implicit Euler time-stepping method combined with spatial discontinuous Galerkin scheme for linear fourth order parabolic problems. A key tool in the analysis is the elliptic reconstruction technique. A new challenge, compared to the case of conforming finite element methods for parabolic problems, is the control of the evolution of the error due to non-conformity. Based on the error estimators, we derive an adaptive numerical method and discuss its practical implementation and illustrate its performance in a series of numerical experiments.

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 The Finite Element Method and Its Reliability

Download or read book The Finite Element Method and Its Reliability written by Ivo Babuška and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2001 with total page 820 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The finite element method is a numerical method widely used in engineering. Experience shows that unreliable computation can lead to very serious consequences. Hence reliability questions stand are at the forefront of engineering and theoretical interests. This book presents the mathematical theory of the finite element method and is the first to focus on the questions of how reliable computed results really are. It addresses among other topics the local behaviour, errors caused by pollution, superconvergence, and optimal meshes. Many computational examples illustrate the importance of the theoretical conclusions for practical computations. Graduate students, lecturers, and researchers in mathematics, engineering, and scientific computation will benefit from the clear structure of the book, and will find this a very useful reference.

Book Time Domain Finite Element Methods for Maxwell s Equations in Metamaterials

Download or read book Time Domain Finite Element Methods for Maxwell s Equations in Metamaterials written by Jichun Li and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-15 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this book is to provide an up-to-date introduction to the time-domain finite element methods for Maxwell’s equations involving metamaterials. Since the first successful construction of a metamaterial with both negative permittivity and permeability in 2000, the study of metamaterials has attracted significant attention from researchers across many disciplines. Thanks to enormous efforts on the part of engineers and physicists, metamaterials present great potential applications in antenna and radar design, sub-wavelength imaging, and invisibility cloak design. Hence the efficient simulation of electromagnetic phenomena in metamaterials has become a very important issue and is the subject of this book, in which various metamaterial modeling equations are introduced and justified mathematically. The development and practical implementation of edge finite element methods for metamaterial Maxwell’s equations are the main focus of the book. The book finishes with some interesting simulations such as backward wave propagation and time-domain cloaking with metamaterials.
