节点梯度光滑有限元配点法

配点法构造简单、计算高效, 但需要用到数值离散形函数的高阶梯度,而传统有限元形函数的梯度在单元边界处通常仅具有C$^{0}$连续性,因此无法直接用于配点法分析. 本文通过引入有限元形函数的光滑梯度,提出了节点梯度光滑有限元配点法. 首先基于广义梯度光滑方法,定义了有限元形函数在节点处的一阶光滑梯度值,然后以有限元形函数为核函数构造了有限元形函数的一阶光滑梯度,进而对一阶光滑梯度直接求导并用一阶光滑梯度替换有限元形函数的标准梯度,即完成了有限元形函数二阶光滑梯度的构造.文中以线性有限元形函数为基础的理论分析表明,其光滑梯度不仅满足传统线性有限元形函数梯度对应的一阶一致性条件,而且在均布网格假定下满足更高一阶的二阶一致性条件.因此与传统线性有限元法相比,基于线性形函数的节点梯度光滑有限元法的$L_{2}$和$H_{1}$误差均具有二次精度,即其$H_{1}$误差收敛阶次比传统有限元法高一阶, 呈现超收敛特性.文中通过典型算例验证了节点梯度光滑有限元配点法的精度和收敛性,特别是其$H_{1}$或能量误差的精度和收敛率都明显高于传统有限元法.      

On Taylor weak statement finite element methods for computational fluid dynamics

A Taylor series augmentation of a weak statement (a ‘Taylor weak statement’ or ‘Taylor-Galerkin’ method) is used to systematically reduce the dispersion error in a finite element approximation of the one-dimensional transient advection equation. A frequency analysis is applied to determine the phase velocity of semi-implicit linear, quadratic and cubic basis one-dimensional finite element methods and of several comparative finite difference/finite volume algorithms. The finite element methods analysed include both Galerkin and Taylor weak statements. The frequency analysis is used to obtain an improved linear basis Taylor weak statement finite element algorithm. Solutions are reported for verification problems in one and two dimensions and are compared with finite volume solutions. The improved finite element algorithms have sufficient phase accuracy to achieve highly accurate linear transient solutions with little or no artificial diffusion.

Propagation of liquid surface waves over finite graphene structured arrays of cylinders

Based on the multiple scattering method, this paper investigates a benchmark problem of the propagation of liquid surface waves over finite graphene (or honeycomb) structured arrays of cylinders. Comparing the graphene structured array with the square structured and with triangle structured arrays, it finds that the finite graphene structure can produce more complete band gaps than the other finite structures, and the finite graphene structure has less localized ability than the other finite structures.     

A numerical scheme for the study of poynting effect in wave propagation problems with finite boundaries

A second order effect, involving a change of length or an axial force, is present in hyperelastic cylindrical rods subjected to a finite twist. This second order effect leads to a coupling of torsional and longitudinal waves in such rods when they are subjected to finite deformations. In this paper, effects of such a coupling has been studied for cylindrical rods of finite length. The resulting finite deformation elastodynamic problem has been solved by a finite difference method which is a finite deformation elastodynamic problem has been solved by a finite difference method which is a MacCormack two-step variant of Lax-Wendroff second order accurate scheme. The accuracy of the numerical technique has been calibrated by comparing solutions with reported similarity solutions for semi-infinite rods. New results have been presented for finite rods and different loading conditions.     

Compatibility between finite volumes and finite elements using solutions of shallow water equations for substance transport

This paper formulates a finite volume analogue of a finite element schematization of three‐dimensional shallow water equations. The resulting finite volume schematization, when applied to the continuity equation, exactly reproduces the set of matrix equations that is obtained by the application of the corresponding finite element schematization to the continuity equation. The procedure allows the consistent and mass conserving coupling of the finite element Telemac model for three‐dimensional flow with the finite volume Delft3D‐WAQ model for water quality. The work has been carried out as part of a joint development by LNHE and WL∣Delft Hydraulics to explore the mutual interaction of their software. Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Velocity–pressure coupling in finite difference formulations for the Navier–Stokes equations

A new numerical procedure for solving the two‐dimensional, steady, incompressible, viscous flow equations on a staggered Cartesian grid is presented in this paper. The proposed methodology is finite difference based, but essentially takes advantage of the best features of two well‐established numerical formulations, the finite difference and finite volume methods. Some weaknesses of the finite difference approach are removed by exploiting the strengths of the finite volume method. In particular, the issue of velocity–pressure coupling is dealt with in the proposed finite difference formulation by developing a pressure correction equation using the SIMPLE approach commonly used in finite volume formulations. However, since this is purely a finite difference formulation, numerical approximation of fluxes is not required. Results presented in this paper are based on first‐ and second‐order upwind schemes for the convective terms. This new formulation is validated against experimental and other numerical data for well‐known benchmark problems, namely developing laminar flow in a straight duct, flow over a backward‐facing step, and lid‐driven cavity flow.

Local and parallel finite element algorithms based on two-grid discretization for steady Navier-Stokes equations

Local and parallel finite element algorithms based on two-grid discretization for Navier-Stokes equations in two dimension are presented. Its basis is a coarse finite element space on the global domain and a fine finite element space on the subdomain. The local algorithm consists of finding a solution for a given nonlinear problem in the coarse finite element space and a solution for a linear problem in the fine finite element space, then droping the coarse solution of the region near the boundary. By overlapping domain decomposition, the parallel algorithms are obtained. This paper analyzes the error of these algorithms and gets some error estimates which are better than those of the standard finite element method. The numerical experiments are given too. By analyzing and comparing these results, it is shown that these algorithms are correct and high efficient.     

Finite strip—Difference calculus technique for plate vibration problems

The paper presents the application of the calculus of finite differences to obtain an explicit expression for the natural frequencies of the finite strip model of a simply supported orthotropic rectangular plate. This analytical solution not only involves far less computational work than the conventional finite strip method, but also enables parametric studies for accuracy and convergence of the finite strip approximation.     

Finite difference and finite element methods for mhd channel flows

A Galerkin finite element method and two finite difference techniques of the control volume variety have been used to study magnetohydrodynamic channel flows as a function of the Reynolds number, interaction parameter, electrode length and wall conductivity. The finite element and finite difference formulations use unequally spaced grids to accurately resolve the flow field near the channel wall and electrode edges where steep flow gradients are expected. It is shown that the axial velocity profiles are distorted into M-shapes by the applied electromagnetic field and that the distortion increases as the Reynolds number, interaction parameter and electrode length are increased. It is also shown that the finite element method predicts larger electromagnetic pinch effects at the electrode entrance and exit and larger pressure rises along the electrodes than the primitive-variable and streamfunction–vorticity finite difference formulations. However, the primitive-variable formulation predicts steeper axial velocity gradients at the channel walls and lower axial velocities at the channel centreline than the streamfunction–vorticity finite difference and the finite element methods. The differences between the results of the finite difference and finite element methods are attributed to the different grids used in the calculations and to the methods used to evaluate the pressure field. In particular, the computation of the velocity field from the streamfunction–vorticity formulation introduces computational noise, which is somewhat smoothed out when the pressure field is calculated by integrating the Navier–Stokes equations. It is also shown that the wall electric potential increases as the wall conductivity increases and that, at sufficiently high interaction parameters, recirculation zones may be created at the channel centreline, whereas the flow near the wall may show jet-like characteristics.

Application of Kalman Filter Finite Element Method and AIC

This paper presents a numerical simulation for application of the Kalman filter finite element method. The Kalman filter is employed frequently for the solution of time series analysis including observation and system noises. Applying the Kalman filter to the finite element method, the present method is capable of the estimation in time and space directions. In this method, the matrix generated by the finite element method is applied to the state transition matrix. Using the Kalman filter finite element method, the characteristics of both the Kalman filter and the finite element method can be strengthened. In this paper, the state transition matrix is based on the shallow water equations which are approximated by the finite element method. This method can estimate the tidal current not only in time but also in space directions.

Finite volume element method for analysis of unsteady reaction–diffusion problems

A finite volume element method is developed for analyzing unsteady scalar reaction-diffusion problems in two dimensions. The method combines the concepts that are employed in the finite volume and the finite element method together. The finite volume method is used to discretize the unsteady reaction-diffusion equation, while the finite element method is applied to estimate the gradient quantities at cell faces. Robustness and efficiency of the combined method have been evaluated on uniform rectangular grids by using available numerical solutions of the two-dimensional reaction-diffusion problems. The numerical solutions demonstrate that the combined method is stable and can provide accurate solution without spurious oscillation along the high-gradient boundary layers.
