Convergence of a Boundary Integral Method for 3-d Water Waves
نویسندگان
چکیده
We prove convergence of a modified point vortex method for timedependent water waves in a three-dimensional, inviscid, irrotational and incompressible fluid. Our stability analysis has two important ingredients. First we derive a leading order approximation of the singular velocity integral. This leading order approximation captures all the leading order contributions of the original velocity integral to linear stability. Moreover, the leading order approximation can be expressed in terms of the Riesz transform, and can be approximated with spectral accuracy. Using this leading order approximation, we construct a near field correction to stabilize the point vortex method approximation. With the near field correction, our modified point vortex method is linearly stable and preserves all the spectral properties of the continuous velocity integral to the leading order. Nonlinear stability and convergence with 3rd order accuracy are obtained using Strang’s technique by establishing an error expansion in the consistency error.

متن کاملA new stabilizing technique for boundary integral methods for water waves
Boundary integral methods to compute interfacial flows are very sensitive to numerical instabilities. A previous stability analysis by Beale, Hou and Lowengrub reveals that a very delicate balance among terms with singular integrals and derivatives must be preserved at the discrete level in order to maintain numerical stability. Such balance can be preserved by applying suitable numerical filte...

In this paper we reduce a free boundary problem from heat transfer to a weakly Singular Volterra integral equation of the first kind. Since the first kind integral equation is ill posed, and an appropriate method for such ill posed problems is based on wavelets, then we apply the Chebyshev wavelets to solve the integral equation. Numerical implementation of the method is illustrated by two ben...
