In this article, we propose ‐unconditional stable schemes for solving time‐dependent incompressible Navier–Stokes equations with smooth or nonsmooth initial data, , . The ‐stability analysis is established by leveraging the scalar auxiliary variable (SAV) approach. When dealing with nonsmooth initial data, we utilize a limited number of iteration of the semi‐implicit scheme followed by the SAV scheme. The overall efficiency is greatly enhanced due to the minimal computational cost of the semi‐implicit scheme and the explicit treatment of the nonlinear term within the SAV approach. The proposed schemes investigate two types of scalar auxiliary variables: the energy‐based variable and the exponential‐based variable. Rigorous proofs of the ‐unconditional stability of both schemes have been provided. Notice that both proposed numerical schemes enjoy unconditional long time stability for smooth and nonsmooth initial data when . Numerical experiments have been conducted to demonstrate the theoretical results.
在本文中,我们提出了用于求解具有光滑或非光滑初始数据(Ⅳ)的时变不可压缩纳维-斯托克斯方程的-条件稳定方案。利用标量辅助变量(SAV)方法建立了-稳定性分析。在处理非光滑初始数据时,我们使用了有限次数的半隐式方案迭代,然后再使用 SAV 方案。由于半隐式方案的计算成本极低,而且 SAV 方法中对非线性项进行了明确处理,因此整体效率大大提高。所提出的方案研究了两类标量辅助变量:基于能量的变量和基于指数的变量。两种方案的无条件稳定性都得到了严格证明。我们注意到,当......或......时,对于光滑或非光滑的初始数据,这两种方案都具有无条件的长时间稳定性。为了证明理论结果,我们进行了数值实验。

In this paper, we propose an a posteriori error estimate of the weak Galerkin finite element method (WG-FEM) solving the Stokes problems with variable coefficients. Its error estimator, based on the property of Stokes' law conservation, Helmholtz decomposition and bubble functions, yields global upper bound and local lower bound for the approximation error of the WG-FEM. Error analysis is proved to be valid under the mesh assumptions of the WG-FEM and the way can be extended to other FEMs with the property of Stokes' law conservation, for example, discontinuous Galerkin (DG) FEMs. Finally, we verify the performance of error estimator by performing a few numerical examples.

This paper deals with the a posteriori error analysis for an augmented mixed discontinuous formulation for the stationary Stokes problem. By considering an appropriate auxiliary problem, we derive an a posteriori error estimator. We prove that this estimator is reliable and locally efficient, and consists of just five residual terms. Numerical experiments confirm the theoretical properties of the augmented discontinuous scheme as well as of the estimator. They also show the capability of the corresponding adaptive algorithm to localize the singularities and the large stress regions of the solution.

This article will suggest a new finite element method to find a ‐velocity and a ‐pressure solving incompressible Stokes equations at low cost. The method solves first the decoupled equation for a ‐velocity. Then, using the calculated velocity, a locally calculable ‐pressure will be defined component‐wisely. The resulting ‐pressure is analyzed to have the optimal order of convergence. Since the pressure is calculated by local computation only, the chief time cost of the new method is on solving the decoupled equation for the ‐velocity. Besides, the method overcomes the problem of singular vertices or corners.

This article deals with the error analysis of a Galerkin‐mixed finite element methods for the advection–reaction–diffusion Brinkman flow in porous media. Numerical methods for incompressible miscible flow in porous media have been studied extensively in the last several decades. In practical applications, the lowest‐order Galerkin‐mixed method is the most popular one, where the linear Lagrange element is used for the concentration and the lowest‐order Raviart–Thomas element, the lowest‐order Nédélec edge element and piece‐wise constant discontinuous Galerkin element are used for the velocity, vorticity and pressure, respectively. The existing error estimate of this lowest‐order finite element method is only for all variables in spatial direction, which is not optimal for the concentration variable. This paper focuses on a new and optimal error estimate of a linearized backward Euler Galerkin‐mixed FEMs, where the second‐order accuracy for the concentration in spatial directions is established unconditionally. The key to our optimal error analysis is a new negative norm estimate for Nédélec edge element. Moreover, based on the computed numerical concentration, we propose a simple one‐step recovery technique to obtain a new numerical velocity, vorticity and pressure with second‐order accuracy. Numerical experiments are provided to confirm our theoretical analysis.

In this article, a first‐order linear fully discrete pressure segregation scheme is studied for the time‐dependent incompressible magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) equations in three‐dimensional bounded domain. Based on an incremental pressure projection method, this scheme allows us to decouple the MHD system into two sub‐problems at each time step, one is the velocity‐magnetic field system, the other is the pressure system. Firstly, a coupled linear elliptic system is solved for the velocity and the magnetic field. Next, a Poisson‐Neumann problem is treated for the pressure. We analyze the temporal error and the spatial error, respectively, and derive the temporal‐spatial error estimates of for the velocity and the magnetic field in the discrete space and for the pressure in the discrete space without imposing constraints on the mesh width and the time step size . Finally, some numerical results are presented to confirm the theoretical predictions and demonstrate the efficiency of the method.

Consider Dirichlet problems of Laplace's equation in a bounded simply‐connected domain , and use the null field equation (NFE) of Green's representation formulation, where the source nodes are located on a pseudo‐boundary outside but not close to its boundary . Simple algorithms are proposed in this article by using the central rule for the NFE, and the normal derivatives of the solutions on the boundary can be easily obtained. These algorithms are called the discrete null field equation method (DNFEM) because the collocation equations are, indeed, the direct discrete form of the NFE. The bounds of the condition number are like those by the method of fundamental solutions (MFS) yielding the exponential growth as the number of unknowns increases. One trouble of the DNFEM is the near singularity of integrations for the solutions in boundary layers in Green's representation formulation. The traditional BEM also suffers from the same trouble. To deal with the near singularity, quadrature by expansions and the sinh transformation are often used. To handle this trouble, however, we develop two kinds of new techniques: (I) the interpolation techniques by Taylor's formulas with piecewise ‐degree polynomials and the Fourier series, and (II) the mini‐rules of integrals, such as the mini‐Simpson's and the mini‐Gaussian rules. Error analysis is made for technique I to achieve optimal convergence rates. Numerical experiments are carried out for disk domains to support the theoretical analysis made. The numerical performance of the DNFEM is excellent for disk domains to compete with the MFS. The errors with can be obtained by combination algorithms, which are satisfactory for most engineering problems. In summary, the new simple DNFEM is based on the NFE, which is different from the boundary element method (BEM). The theoretical basis in error and stability has been established in this article. One trouble in seeking the numerical solutions in boundary layers has been handled well; this is also an important contribution to the BEM. Besides, numerical experiments are encouraging. Hence the DNFEM is promising, and it may become a new boundary method for scientific/engineering computing.
考虑有界简单连接域中拉普拉斯方程的 Dirichlet 问题 ,并使用格林表征公式的空场方程 (NFE),其中源节点位于其边界之外但不靠近其边界的伪边界上。本文利用 NFE 的中心法则提出了简单的算法,并可轻松求得边界上解的法导数。这些算法被称为离散空场方程法(DNFEM),因为配位方程实际上是 NFE 的直接离散形式。条件数的界限与基本解法(MFS)相似,随着未知数的增加而呈指数增长。DNFEM 的一个问题是,在格林表征公式中,边界层中的解的积分接近奇点。传统的 BEM 也存在同样的问题。为了解决近似奇异性问题,通常使用正交展开和 sinh 变换。然而,为了解决这一问题,我们开发了两种新技术:(I) 使用片断-度多项式和傅里叶级数的泰勒公式插值技术;(II) 积分的迷你规则,如迷你辛普森规则和迷你高斯规则。对技术 I 进行了误差分析,以达到最佳收敛率。为支持理论分析,对圆盘域进行了数值实验。DNFEM 在磁盘域的数值性能非常出色,可与 MFS 相媲美。通过组合算法可以获得与 MFS 的误差,这对于大多数工程问题来说都是令人满意的。总之,新的简单 DNFEM 基于 NFE,不同于边界元法(BEM)。本文建立了误差和稳定性的理论基础。在边界层中寻求数值解的一个难题得到了很好的解决;这也是对 BEM 的一个重要贡献。此外,数值实验也令人鼓舞。因此,DNFEM 前景广阔,有可能成为科学/工程计算的一种新边界方法。

By postprocessing quadratic and eight‐node serendipity finite element solutions on arbitrary triangular and quadrilateral meshes, we obtain new quadratic/serendipity finite volume element solutions for solving anisotropic diffusion equations. The postprocessing procedure is implemented in each element independently, and we only need to solve a 6‐by‐6 (resp. 8‐by‐8) local linear algebraic system for triangular (resp. quadrilateral) element. The novelty of this paper is that, by designing some new quadratic dual meshes, and adding six/eight special constructed element‐wise bubble functions to quadratic/serendipity finite element solutions, we prove that the postprocessed solutions satisfy local conservation property on the new dual meshes. In particular, for any full anisotropic diffusion tensor, arbitrary triangular and quadrilateral meshes, we present a general framework to prove the existence and uniqueness of new quadratic/serendipity finite volume element solutions, which is better than some existing ones. That is, the existing theoretical results are improved, especially we extend the traditional rectangular assumption to arbitrary convex quadrilateral mesh. As a byproduct, we also prove that the new solutions converge to exact solution with optimal convergence rates under and norms on primal arbitrary triangular/quasi–parallelogram meshes. Finally, several numerical examples are carried out to validate the theoretical findings.
