A moving-grid, shock-fitting, finite element method has been implemented that can achieve high-order accuracy for flow simulations with shocks. In this approach, edges in the computational mesh are fitted to shock front and moved throughout simulation. The Euler or Navier-Stokes equations solved on moving an arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian framework. is two-dimensions context of a streamwise upwi...

In order to overcome the difficulties of low computational efficiency and high memory requirement in the conventional boundary element method for solving large-scale potential problems, a fast multipole boundary element method for the problems of Laplace equation is presented. through the multipole expansion and local expansion for the basic solution of the kernel function of the Laplace equati...

This paper presents a simple method based on strain energy density criterion to study the crack initiation angle by finite element method under biaxial loading condition. The crack surface relative displacement method is used to eliminate the calculation of the stress intensity factors which are normally required. The analysis is performed using higher order four node quadrilateral element. The...

The jump is defined as [∇u · n] = ∇u · n +∇u ·n where u = u|Ω± and n is the unit outward pointing normal to Ω (see figure 1). Also, we denote [u] = u − u. Many numerical methods have been developed for problem (1.1). Perhaps the most notable ones are the finite difference method of Peskin [18] (i.e., immersed boundary method) and the method of LeVeque and Li [11] (i.e., the immersed interface m...
