A general theory is given for discretized versions of the Galerkin method for solving Fredholm integral equations of the second kind. The discretized Galerkin method is obtained from using numerical integration to evaluate the integrals occurring in the Galerkin method. The theoretical framework that is given parallels that of the regular Galerkin method, including the error analysis of the sup...

this paper presents discrete galerkin method for obtaining the numerical solution of higher even-order integro-differential equations with variable coefficients. we use the generalized jacobi polynomials with indexes corresponding to the number of homogeneous initial conditions as natural basis functions for the approximate solution. numerical results are presented to demonstrate the effectiven...

In this article we study the properties of the hyperinterpolation operator on the unit disk D in R. We show how the hyperinterpolation can be used in connection with the Kumar-Sloan method to approximate the solution of a nonlinear Poisson equation on the unit disk (discrete Galerkin method). A bound for the norm of the hyperinterpolation operator in the space C(D) is derived. Our results prove...

In this article, element free Galerkin method is used for static analysis of thin micro/nanoscale plates based on the nonlocal plate theory. The problem is solved for the plates with arbitrary boundary conditions. Since shape functions of the element free Galerkin method do not satisfy the Kronecker’s delta property, the penalty method is used to impose the essential boundary conditions. Discre...

This article introduces and analyzes a weak Galerkin mixed finite element method for solving the biharmonic equation. The weak Galerkin method, first introduced by two of the authors (J. Wang and X. Ye) in [52] for second order elliptic problems, is based on the concept of discrete weak gradients. The method uses completely discrete finite element functions and, using certain discrete spaces an...

In this paper, an H-Galerkin mixed finite element method is discussed for the coupled Burgers equations. The optimal error estimates of the semi-discrete and fully discrete schemes of the coupled Burgers equation are derived. Keywords—The coupled Burgers equation; H-Galerkin mixed finite element method; Backward Euler’s method; Optimal error estimates.

We apply in this paper the weak Galerkin method to the second order parabolic differential equations based on a discrete weak gradient operator. We establish both the continuous time and the discrete time weak Galerkin finite element schemes, which allow using the totally discrete functions in approximation space and the finite element partitions of arbitrary polygons with certain shape regular...
