Higher order temporal finite element methods through mixed formalisms
The extended framework of Hamilton's principle and the mixed convolved action principle provide new rigorous weak variational formalism for a broad range of initial boundary value problems in mathematical physics and mechanics. In this paper, their potential when adopting temporally higher order approximations is investigated. The classical single-degree-of-freedom dynamical systems are primari...
متن کاملFinite Element-Based Level Set Methods for Higher Order Flows
In this paper we shall discuss the numerical simulation of higher order geometric flows by level set methods. Main examples under considerations are surface diffusion and the Willmore flow as well as variants and of them with more complicated surface energies. Such problems find various applications, e.g. in materials science (crystal growth, thin film technology), biophysics (membrane shapes),...
متن کاملTransient Fluid Flow Modeling in Fractured Aquifer of Sechahoon Iron Mine Using Finite Element Method
Considering the fact that a large volume of iron reserve in the Sechahoon Iron Mine in Yazd Province has located under the water table, it is necessary to conduct a comprehensive study on water flow within the pit and its surroundings. The conceptual model of the aquifer was created using surface and underground geological information compared with water table data of the area of interest. In t...
متن کاملAccurate multiscale finite element methods for two-phase flow simulations
In this paper we propose a modified multiscale finite element method for two-phase flow simulations in heterogeneous porous media. The main idea of the method is to use the global fine-scale solution at initial time to determine the boundary conditions of the basis functions. This method provides a significant improvement in two-phase flow simulations in porous media where the long-range effect...
متن کاملAdaptive higher-order finite element methods for transient PDE problems based on embedded higher-order implicit Runge-Kutta methods
We present a new class of adaptivity algorithms for time-dependent partial differential equations (PDE) that combines adaptive higher-order finite elements (hp-FEM) in space with arbitrary (embedded, higher-order, implicit) Runge-Kutta methods in time. Weak formulation is only created for the stationary residual of the equation, and the Runge-Kutta method is supplied via its Butcher’s table. Ar...
