Virtual Control Volumes for Two-Dimensional Unstructured Elliptic Smoothing

نویسنده

  • Steve L. Karman
چکیده

A two-dimensional unstructured elliptic smoothing method is described where the Winslow equations are discretized using a finite volume approach. Virtual control volumes for each node are constructed with element shapes that are nearly ideal. Green-Gauss theorem is used to formulate gradients over an element or a collection of elements for a node, which ultimately leads to a coupled non-linear system of equations. Modifications enable the scheme to reproduce results similar to structured mesh schemes. Results are included that demonstrate basic mesh smoothing and boundary motion. In addition, layers of quadrilateral elements can be added to selected boundaries and the interior point positions are determined via elliptic smoothing.

Numerical Investigation of Island Effects on Depth Averaged Fluctuating Flow in the Persian Gulf

In the present paper simulation of tidal currents on three-dimensional geometry of the Persian Gulf is performed by the solution of the depth averaged hydrodynamics equations. The numerical solution was applied on two types of discritized simulation domain (Persian Gulf); with and without major islands. The hydrodynamic model utilized in this work is formed by equations of continuity and motion...

Introduction to a simple yet effective Two-Dimensional Fuzzy Smoothing Filter

Annihilation or reduction of each kind of noise blended in correct data signals is a field that has attracted many researchers. It is a fact that fuzzy theory presents full capability in this field. Fuzzy filters are often strong in smoothing corrupted signals, whereas they have simple structures. In this paper, a new powerful yet simple fuzzy procedure is introduced for sharpness reduction in ...

Robust Multigrid Methods for Elliptic Linearsystemstony

We survey robust multigrid methods in the literature which have been developed in recent years for solving second order elliptic PDEs with nonsmooth coeecients. We highlight the key ideas of designing robust multigrid methods which are able to recover the usual multigrid eeciency for nonsmooth coeecient PDEs on structured or unstructured grids. In particular, we shall describe various approache...
