چکیده
Abstract. A fully discrete a priori analysis of the finite element heterogenenous multiscale method (FE-HMM) introduced in [A. Abdulle, M. Grote, C. Stohrer, Multiscale Model. Simul. 2014] for the wave equation with highly oscillatory coefficients over long time is presented. A sharp a priori convergence rate for the numerical method is derived for long time intervals. The effective model over long time is a Boussinesq-type equation that has been shown to approximate the one-dimensional multiscale wave equation with ε-periodic coefficients up to time O(ε−2) in [Lamacz, Math. Models Methods Appl. Sci., 2011]. In this paper we also revisit this result by deriving and analysing a family of effective Boussinesq-type equations for the approximation of the multiscale wave equation that depends on the normalization chosen for certain micro functions used to define the macroscopic models.

Optimal order finite element approximation for a hyperbolic integro-differential equation
Semidiscrete finite element approximation of a hyperbolic type integro-differential equation is studied. The model problem is treated as the wave equation which is perturbed with a memory term. Stability estimates are obtained for a slightly more general problem. These, based on energy method, are used to prove optimal order a priori error estimates.
متن کاملA Finite Element Heterogeneous Multiscale Method with Improved Control over the Modeling Error
Multiscale partial differential equations (PDEs) are difficult to solve by traditional numerical methods due to the need to resolve the small wavelengths in the media over the entire computational domain. We develop and analyze a Finite Element Heterogeneous Multiscale Method (FE-HMM) for approximating the homogenized solutions of multiscale PDEs of elliptic, parabolic, and hyperbolic type. Typ...
متن کاملFinite Element Heterogeneous Multiscale Method for the Wave Equation: Long Time Effects∗
A new finite element heterogeneous multiscale method (FE-HMM) is proposed for the numerical solution of the wave equation over long times in a rapidly varying medium. Our new FE-HMM-L method not only captures the short-time behavior of the wave field, well described by classical homogenization theory, but also more subtle long-time dispersive effects, both at a computational cost independent of...
متن کاملAnalysis and Applications of Heterogeneous Multiscale Methods for Multiscale Partial Differential Equations
This thesis centers on the development and analysis of numerical multiscale methods for multiscale problems arising in steady heat conduction, heat transfer and wave propagation in heterogeneous media. In a multiscale problem several scales interact with each other to form a system which has variations over a wide range of scales. A direct numerical simulation of such problems requires resolvin...
