چکیده

We study the steady-state Navier-Stokes equations in the context of stochastic finite element discretizations. Specifically, we assume that the viscosity is a random field given in the form of a generalized polynomial chaos expansion. For the resulting stochastic problem, we formulate the model and linearization schemes using Picard and Newton iterations in the framework of the stochastic Galerkin method, and we explore properties of the resulting stochastic solutions. We also propose a preconditioner for solving the linear systems of equations arising at each step of the stochastic (Galerkin) nonlinear iteration and demonstrate its effectiveness for solving a set of benchmark problems.

A FAST MESH-FREE GALERKIN METHOD FOR THE ANALYSIS OF STEADY-STATE HEAT TRANSFER

The element-free Galerkin method is employed for two-dimensional analysis of steady-state heat transfer. The unknown response of the system, i.e. temperature is approximated using the moving least squares technique. Numerical integration of governing simultaneous system of equations is performed by Gauss quadrature and new modified nodal integration techniques. Numerical examples and tests have...

Optimal Pareto Parametric Analysis of Two Dimensional Steady-State Heat Conduction Problems by MLPG Method

Numerical solutions obtained by the Meshless Local Petrov-Galerkin (MLPG) method are presented for two dimensional steady-state heat conduction problems. The MLPG method is a truly meshless approach, and neither the nodal connectivity nor the background mesh is required for solving the initial-boundary-value problem. The penalty method is adopted to efficiently enforce the essential boundary co...

A Well-Balanced Stochastic Galerkin Method for Scalar Hyperbolic Balance Laws with Random Inputs

We propose a generalized polynomial chaos (gPC) based stochastic Galerkin methods for scalar hyperbolic balance laws with random geometric source terms or random initial data. This method is well-balanced (WB), in the sense that it captures the stochastic steady state solution with high order accuracy. The framework of the stochastic WB schemes is presented in details, along with several numeri...

On Stability and Monotonicity Requirements of Discretized Stochastic Conservation Laws with Random Viscosity

The stochastic Galerkin and collocation methods are used to solve an advectiondiffusion equation with uncertain and spatially varying viscosity. We investigate wellposedness, monotonicity and stability for the extended system resulting from the Galerkin projection of the advection-diffusion equation onto the stochastic basis functions. High-order summation-by-parts operators and weak imposition...
