In this work, we present a novel approach to type design by using Fourier-type series to generate letterforms. We construct a Fourier-type series for functions in $L^2(S^1,mathbb C)$ based on triangles of constant width instead of circles to model the curves and shapes that define individual characters. In order to compute the coefficients of the series, we construct an isomorphism $mathcal R:L^2(S^1,mathbb C)to L^2(S^1,mathbb C)$ and study its application to letterforms, thus presenting an alternative to the common use of B'ezier curves. The proposed method demonstrates potential for creative experimentation in modern type design.

In this article, we derive fully guaranteed error bounds for the energy of convex nonlinear mean-field models. These results apply in particular to Kohn-Sham equations with convex density functionals, which includes the reduced Hartree-Fock (rHF) model, as well as the Kohn-Sham model with exact exchange-density functional (which is unfortunately not explicit and therefore not usable in practice). We then decompose the obtained bounds into two parts, one depending on the chosen discretization and one depending on the number of iterations performed in the self-consistent algorithm used to solve the nonlinear eigenvalue problem, paving the way for adaptive refinement strategies. The accuracy of the bounds is demonstrated on a series of test cases, including a Silicon crystal and an Hydrogen Fluoride molecule simulated with the rHF model and discretized with planewaves. We also show that, although not anymore guaranteed, the error bounds remain very accurate for a Silicon crystal simulated with the Kohn-Sham model using nonconvex exchangecorrelation functionals of practical interest.

This work introduces a new solution-transfer process for slab-based space-time finite element methods. The new transfer process is based on Hsieh-Clough-Tocher (HCT) splines and satisfies the following requirements: (i) it maintains high-order accuracy up to 4th order, (ii) it preserves a discrete maximum principle, (iii) it enforces mass conservation, and (iv) it constructs a smooth, continuous surrogate solution in between space-time slabs. While many existing transfer methods meet the first three requirements, the fourth requirement is crucial for enabling visualization and boundary condition enforcement for space-time applications. In this paper, we derive an error bound for our HCT spline-based transfer process. Additionally, we conduct numerical experiments quantifying the conservative nature and order of accuracy of the transfer process. Lastly, we present a qualitative evaluation of the visualization properties of the smooth surrogate solution.

Recent advancements in computational capabilities have significantly enhanced the numerical simulation of complex multiphysics and multidomain problems. However, mesh generation remains a primary bottleneck in these simulations. To address this challenge, non-conforming grids are often utilized, which necessitates the development of robust and efficient intergrid interpolator operators. This paper presents a novel approach for transferring variable fields across non-conforming meshes within a mortar framework, where weak continuity conditions are imposed. The key contribution of our work is the introduction of an innovative algorithm that utilizes Radial Basis Function (RBF) interpolations to compute the mortar integral, offering a compelling alternative to traditional projection-based algorithms. Pairing RBF methods with numerical integration techniques, we propose an efficient algorithm tailored for complex three-dimensional scenarios. This paper details the formulation, analysis, and validation of the proposed RBF algorithm through a series of numerical examples, demonstrating its effectiveness. Furthermore, the details of the implementation are discussed and a test case involving a complex geometry is presented, to illustrate the applicability and advantages of our approach in addressing real-world problems.

Over the last two decades, several fast, robust, and high-order accurate methods have been developed for solving the Poisson equation in complicated geometry using potential theory. In this approach, rather than discretizing the partial differential equation itself, one first evaluates a volume integral to account for the source distribution within the domain, followed by solving a boundary integral equation to impose the specified boundary conditions. Here, we present a new fast algorithm which is easy to implement and compatible with virtually any discretization technique, including unstructured domain triangulations, such as those used in standard finite element or finite volume methods. Our approach combines earlier work on potential theory for the heat equation, asymptotic analysis, the nonuniform fast Fourier transform (NUFFT), and the dual-space multilevel kernel-splitting (DMK) framework. It is insensitive to flaws in the triangulation, permitting not just nonconforming elements, but arbitrary aspect ratio triangles, gaps and various other degeneracies. On a single CPU core, the scheme computes the solution at a rate comparable to that of the fast Fourier transform (FFT) in work per gridpoint.
在过去的二十年里,已经开发出几种快速、稳健和高阶精确的方法,用于利用势理论求解复杂几何中的泊松方程。在这种方法中,我们不是将边际微分方程本身离散化,而是首先求体积积分来计算域内的源分布,然后求解边界积分方程来施加指定的边界条件。在这里,我们提出了一种新的快速算法,这种算法易于实现,而且几乎与任何离散化技术兼容,包括非结构化域三角测量,如标准有限元或有限体积方法中使用的算法。我们的方法结合了早先在氦方程势理论、渐近分析、非均匀快速傅立叶变换(NUFFT)和双空间多级内核拆分(DMK)框架方面的工作。它对三角剖分中的缺陷很敏感,不仅允许不规则的元素,还允许任意长宽比的三角形、间隙和其他各种退行性。在单个 CPU 内核上,该方案计算解的速度可与快速傅立叶变换 (FFT) 计算每个网格点的工作量相媲美。

We study various formulations of the boundary conditions for the Euler equations of gas dynamics from a mathematical and numerical point of view. In the case of one space dimension, we recall the classical results, based on an analysis of the linearized problem. Then we present a more recent formulation of the problem, which allows for nonlinear effects at the boundary of the study domain. This formulation fits naturally into a finite volume discretization, and we present a significant one-dimensional test case.

In this work, we study the numerical approximation of minimizers of the Ginzburg-Landau free energy, a common model to describe the behavior of superconductors under magnetic fields. The unknowns are the order parameter, which characterizes the density of superconducting charge carriers, and the magnetic vector potential, which allows to deduce the magnetic field that penetrates the superconductor. Physically important and numerically challenging are especially settings which involve lattices of quantized vortices which can be formed in materials with a large Ginzburg-Landau parameter $kappa$. In particular, $kappa$ introduces a severe mesh resolution condition for numerical approximations. In order to reduce these computational restrictions, we investigate a particular discretization which is based on mixed meshes where we apply a Lagrange finite element approach for the vector potential and a localized orthogonal decomposition (LOD) approach for the order parameter. We justify the proposed method by a rigorous a-priori error analysis (in $L^2$ and $H^1$) in which we keep track of the influence of $kappa$ in all error contributions. This allows us to conclude $kappa$-dependent resolution conditions for the various meshes and which only impose moderate practical constraints compared to a conventional finite element discretization. Finally, our theoretical findings are illustrated by numerical experiments.

Inspired by the unconstrained PPE (UPPE) formulation [Liu, Liu, & Pego 2007 Comm. Pure Appl. Math., 60 pp. 1443], we previously proposed the GePUP formulation [Zhang 2016 J. Sci. Comput., 67 pp. 1134] for numerically solving the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations (INSE) on no-slip domains. In this paper, we propose GePUP-E and GePUP-ES, variants of GePUP that feature (a) electric boundary conditions with no explicit enforcement of the no-penetration condition, (b) equivalence to the no-slip INSE, (c) exponential decay of the divergence of an initially non-solenoidal velocity, and (d) monotonic decrease of the kinetic energy. Different from UPPE, the GePUP-E and GePUP-ES formulations are of strong forms and are designed for finite volume/difference methods under the framework of method of lines. Furthermore, we develop semi-discrete algorithms that preserve (c) and (d) and fully discrete algorithms that are fourth-order accurate for velocity both in time and in space. These algorithms employ algebraically stable time integrators in a black-box manner and only consist of solving a sequence of linear equations in each time step. Results of numerical tests confirm our analysis.

Numerical simulation of large-scale multiphase and multicomponent flow in porous media is a significant field of interest in the petroleum industry. The fully implicit approach is favored in reservoir simulation due to its numerical stability and relaxed constraints on time-step sizes. However, this method requires solving a large nonlinear system at each time step, making the development of efficient and convergent numerical methods crucial for accelerating the nonlinear solvers. In this paper, we present an adaptively coupled subdomain framework based on the domain decomposition method. The solution methods developed within this framework effectively handle strong nonlinearities in global problems by addressing subproblems in the coupled regions. Furthermore, we propose several adaptive coupling strategies and develop a method for leveraging initial guesses to accelerate the solution of nonlinear problems, thereby improving the convergence and parallel performance of nonlinear solvers. A series of numerical experiments validate the effectiveness of the proposed framework. Additionally, by utilizing tens of thousands of processors, we demonstrate the scalability of this approach through a large-scale reservoir simulation with over 2 billion degrees of freedom.
