Efficient multigrid and data structures for edge-oriented FEM stabilization
نویسندگان
چکیده
We study edge-oriented FEM stabilizations w.r.t. linear multigrid solvers and data structures with the goal to examine the efficiency of such stabilizations due to the extending matrix stencil which is not supported by standard FEM data structures. A new edge-oriented data structure has been developed to support the additional coupling. So, the local element-wise and edge-wise matrices are easily deduced from the global ones. Accordingly, efficient Vanka smoothers are introduced, namely a full cell-oriented and an edge-oriented Vanka smoother so that it becomes possible to privilege edge-oriented stabilization for CFD simulations.

Unified edge-oriented stabilization of nonconforming finite element methods for incompressible flow problems
This paper deals with various aspects of edge-oriented stabilization techniques for nonconforming finite element methods for the numerical solution of incompressible flow problems. We discuss two separate classes of problems which require appropriate stabilization techniques: First, the lack of coercivity for nonconforming low order approximations for treating problems with the symmetric deform...
متن کاملFEM techniques for the LCR reformulation of viscoelastic flow problems
We present special numerical techniques for viscoelastic fluid flow utilizing a fully coupled monolithic multigrid finite element approach with consistent edge-oriented stabilization technique. The governing equations arise from the Navier-Stokes for the Oldroyd-B type of fluid with the help of the log-conformation reformulation to allow a wide range of Weissenberg numbers. The resulting nonlin...
متن کاملMultigrid methods for stabilized nonconforming finite elements for incompressible flow involving the deformation tensor formulation
Edge-oriented stabilization methods in the framework of discontinuous Galerkin approaches have been recently proposed by Brenner [3] and particularly by Hansbo and Larson [5] for nonconforming finite element discretizations to satisfy a discrete Korn’s inequality. We develop and analyse corresponding multigrid components in combination with local Pressure-Schur-Complement methods and give numer...
متن کاملFEM Updating for Offshore Jacket Structures Using Measured Incomplete Modal Data
Marine industry requires continued development of new technologies in order to produce oil. An essential requirement in design is to be able to compare experimental data from prototype structures with predicted information from a corresponding analytical finite element model. In this study, structural model updating may be defined as the fit of an existing analytical model in the light of measu...
متن کاملUCHPC – UnConventional High Performance Computing for Finite Element Simulations
Processor technology is still dramatically advancing and promises enormous improvements in processing data for the next decade. These improvements are driven by parallelisation and specialisation of resources, and ‘unconventional hardware’ like GPUs or the Cell processor can be seen as forerunners of this development. At the same time, much smaller advances are expected in moving data; this mea...
