Solution of Wave Equations Near Seawalls by Finite Element Method
A 2D finite element model for the solution of wave equations is developed. The fluid is considered as incompressible and irrotational. This is a difficult mathematical problem to solve numerically as well as analytically because the condition of the dynamic boundary (Bernoulli’s equation) on the free surface is not fixed and varies with time. The finite element technique is applied to solve non...

A Posteriori Error Analysis in the maximum norm for a penalty finite element method for the time-dependent obstacle problem Abstract. We consider nite element approximation of the parabolic obstacle problem. The analysis is based on a penalty formulation of the problem where the penalisation parameter is allowed to vary in space and time. We estimate the penalisation error in terms of the penal...
متن کاملComparison 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...
متن کاملA two dimensional Simulation of crack propagation using Adaptive Finite Element Analysis
Finite element method (FEM) is one of the most famous methods which has many applications in varies studies such as the study of crack propagation in engineering structures. However, unless extremely fine meshes are employed, problem arises in accurately modelling the singular stress field in the singular element area around the crack tip. In the present study, the crack growth simulation has b...
متن کاملA Monotonic Method for the Numerical Solution of Some Free Boundary Value Problems
This work presents an efficient monotonic algorithm for the numerical solution of the obstacle problem and the Signorini problems, when they are discretized either by the finite element method or by the finite volume method. The convergence of this algorithm applied to the discrete problem is proven in both cases.
