A combined finite volumes ‐ finite elements method for a low‐Mach model

Chebyshev finite difference method for solving a mathematical model arising in wastewater treatment plants

The Chebyshev finite difference method is applied to solve a system of two coupled nonlinear Lane-Emden differential equations arising in mathematical modelling of the excess sludge production from wastewater treatment plants. This method is based on a combination of the useful properties of Chebyshev polynomials approximation and finite difference method. The approach consists of reducing the ...

Which elements of a finite group are non-vanishing?

‎Let $G$ be a finite group‎. ‎An element $gin G$ is called non-vanishing‎, ‎if for‎ ‎every irreducible complex character $chi$ of $G$‎, ‎$chi(g)neq 0$‎. ‎The bi-Cayley graph ${rm BCay}(G,T)$ of $G$ with respect to a subset $Tsubseteq G$‎, ‎is an undirected graph with‎ ‎vertex set $Gtimes{1,2}$ and edge set ${{(x,1),(tx,2)}mid xin G‎, ‎ tin T}$‎. ‎Let ${rm nv}(G)$ be the set‎ ‎of all non-vanishi...

The Feti Method for Mortar Finite Elements

Finite difference method for a combustion model

We study a projection and upwind finite difference scheme for a combustion model problem. Convergence to weak solutions is proved under the Courant-Friedrichs-Lewy condition. More assumptions are given on the ignition temperature; then convergence to strong detonation wave solutions or to weak detonation wave solutions is proved.

A Fictitious Domain Method with Mixed Finite Elements for Elastodynamics

We consider in this paper the wave scattering problem by an object with Neumann boundary conditions in an anisotropic elastic body. To obtain an efficient numerical method (permitting the use of regular grids) we follow a fictitious domain approach coupled with a first order velocity stress formulation for elastodynamics. We first observe that the method does not always converge when the Qdiv 1...
