Bubble stabilized discontinuous Galerkin method for parabolic and elliptic problems

In this paper we give an analysis of a bubble stabilized discontinuous Galerkin method (BSDG) for elliptic and parabolic problems. The method consists of stabilizing the numerical scheme by enriching the discontinuous finite element space elementwise by quadratic non-conforming bubbles. This approach leads to optimal convergence in the space and time discretization parameters. Moreover the dive...

A Regularization Method for Time-fractional Linear Inverse Diffusion Problems

In this article, we consider an inverse problem for a time-fractional diffusion equation with a linear source in a one-dimensional semi-infinite domain. Such a problem is obtained from the classical diffusion equation by replacing the first-order time derivative by the Caputo fractional derivative. We show that the problem is ill-posed, then apply a regularization method to solve it based on th...

A Fractional Step θ-method for Convection-Diffusion Problems

In this article, we analyze the fractional-step θ method for the time-dependent convectiondiffusion equation. In our implementation, we completely separate the convection operator from the diffusion operator, and stabilize the convective solve using a streamline upwinded PetrovGalerkin (SUPG) method. We establish a priori error estimates and show that optimal values of θ yield a scheme that is ...

Unified Fractional Kinetic Equation and a Fractional Diffusion Equation

Abstract. In earlier papers Saxena et al. (2002, 2003) derived the solutions of a number of fractional kinetic equations in terms of generalized Mittag-Leffler functions which extended the work of Haubold and Mathai (2000). The object of the present paper is to investigate the solution of a unified form of fractional kinetic equation in which the free term contains any integrable function f(t),...
