An Analysis of Finite Volume, Finite Element, and Finite Difference Methods Using Some Concepts from Algebraic Topology
plains why it is expedient to use two distinct and dual discretization grids, it shows how they must be staggered In this paper we apply the ideas of algebraic topology to the analysis of the finite volume and finite element methods, illuminatto achieve optimal performance and proposes a technique ing the similarity between the discretization strategies adopted by for the construction of high o...

متن کاملFinite Difference, Finite Element and Finite Volume Methods for Partial Differential Equations
There are three important steps in the computational modelling of any physical process: (i) problem definition, (ii) mathematical model, and (iii) computer simulation. The first natural step is to define an idealization of our problem of interest in terms of a set of relevant quantities which we would like to measure. In defining this idealization we expect to obtain a well-posed problem, this ...
متن کاملError analysis of finite element and finite volume methods for some viscoelastic fluids
We present the error analysis of a particular Oldroyd-B type model with the limiting Weissenberg number going to infinity. Assuming a suitable regularity of the exact solution we study the error estimates of a standard finite element method and of a combined finite element/finite volume method. Our theoretical result shows first order convergence of the finite element method and the error of th...
