چکیده

This paper gives an overview of adaptive discretization methods for linear second-order hyperbolic problems such as the acoustic or the elastic wave equation. The emphasis is on Galerkin-type methods for spatial as well as temporal discretization, which also include variants of the Crank-Nicolson and the Newmark finite difference schemes. The adaptive choice of space and time meshes follows the principle of “goaloriented” adaptivity which is based on a posteriori error estimation employing the solutions of auxiliary dual problems. 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: 35L05, 65M50, 65M60, 74S05.

Finite Element Methods for Convection Diffusion Equation

This paper deals with the finite element solution of the convection diffusion equation in one and two dimensions. Two main techniques are adopted and compared. The first one includes Petrov-Galerkin based on Lagrangian tensor product elements in conjunction with streamlined upwinding. The second approach represents Bubnov/Petrov-Galerkin schemes based on a new group of exponential elements. It ...

Finite Element Approximation of the Acoustic Wave Equation: Error Control and Mesh Adaptation

We present an approach to solving the acoustic wave equation by adaptive finite element methods. Using a global duality argument and Galerkin orthogonality, we obtain a residual-based error representation with respect to an arbitrary functional of the solution. This results in numerically evaluatable error estimates which are used for mesh refinement. In this way, very economical and highly loc...

Comparison of different numerical methods for calculating stress intensity factors in analysis of fractured structures

In this research, an efficient Galerkin Finite Volume Method (GFVM) along with the h–refinement adaptive process and post–processing error estimation analysis is presented for fracture analysis. The adaptive strategy is used to produce more accurate solution with the least computational cost. To investigate the accuracy and efficiency of the developed model, the GFVM is compared with two versio...

High Order Accurate Runge Kutta Nodal Discontinuous Galerkin Method for Numerical Solution of Linear Convection Equation

This paper deals with a high-order accurate Runge Kutta Discontinuous Galerkin (RKDG) method for the numerical solution of the wave equation, which is one of the simple case of a linear hyperbolic partial differential equation. Nodal DG method is used for a finite element space discretization in ‘x’ by discontinuous approximations. This method combines mainly two key ideas which are based on th...

A Hybridized Crouziex-Raviart Nonconforming Finite Element and Discontinuous Galerkin Method for a Two-Phase Flow in the Porous Media

In this study, we present a numerical solution for the two-phase incompressible flow in the porous media under isothermal condition using a hybrid of the linear lower-order nonconforming finite element and the interior penalty discontinuous Galerkin (DG) method. This hybridization is developed for the first time in the two-phase modeling and considered as the main novelty of this research.The p...
