Lagrangian versus Eulerian integration errors

چکیده
The possibility to use a Lagrangian frame to solve problems with large time-steps was successfully explored previously by the authors for the solution of homogeneous incompressible fluids and also for solving multi-fluid problems [28-30]. The strategy used by the authors was named Particle Finite Element Method second generation (PFEM-2). The objective of this paper is to demonstrate in which circumstances the use of a Lagrangian frame with particles is more accurate than a classical Eulerian finite element method, and when large time-steps and/or coarse meshes may be used.

Dynamic Fracture Analysis Using an Uncoupled Arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian Finite Element Formulation
This paper deals with the implementation of an efficient Arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian (ALE) formulation for the three dimensional finite element modeling of mode I self-similar dynamic fracture process. Contrary to the remeshing technique, the presented algorithm can continuously advance the crack with the one mesh topology. The uncoupled approach is employed to treat the equations. So, each t...
متن کاملA Thermobaric Instability of Lagrangian Vertical Coordinate Ocean Models
Lagrangian(and isopycnic-) vertical coordinate ocean models are subject to an exponentially growing numerical instability in weakly stratified regions when thermobaricity is not accurately compensated. Inaccurate compensation for compressibility in the pressure gradient terms leads to pressure gradient truncation errors (due to the vertical discretization) that can drive the Lagrangian coordina...
متن کاملOn the role of tracking on Eulerian–Lagrangian solutions of the transport equation
We investigate the effect of tracking errors on the accuracy and stability of Eulerian– Lagrangian methods (ELMS) for the solution of the transport equation. A combination of formal analysis and numerical experimentation demonstrates that the effect is severe. Even moderate tracking errors substantially affect the preservation of the zeroth, first and second moments of concentration (mass, phas...
متن کاملتحلیل دینامیکی سدهای بتنی وزنی با مدلسازی مخزن به روشهای لاگرانژی و اویلری
Because of different behavior of reservoir water and dam material, the determination of hydrodynamic pressure during earthquake is very complicated. Thus, different formulations have been presented for modeling of the dam reservoir system under dynamic loading such as earthquake. These formulations can be categorized into two general groups, which are Lagrangian and Eulerian, each having advant...
متن کاملThe Eulerian–Lagrangian method of fundamental solutions for two-dimensional unsteady Burgers’ equations
The Eulerian–Lagrangian method of fundamental solutions is proposed to solve the two-dimensional unsteady Burgers’ equations. Through the Eulerian–Lagrangian technique, the quasi-linear Burgers’ equations can be converted to the characteristic diffusion equations. The method of fundamental solutions is then adopted to solve the diffusion equation through the diffusion fundamental solution; in t...
