Parallel Adaptive Finite Element Methods for Problems in Natural Convection

Finite Element Methods for Convection Diffusion Equation

This paper deals with the finite element solution of the convection diffusion equation in one and two dimensions. Two main techniques are adopted and compared. The first one includes Petrov-Galerkin based on Lagrangian tensor product elements in conjunction with streamlined upwinding. The second approach represents Bubnov/Petrov-Galerkin schemes based on a new group of exponential elements. It ...

A finite element model to simulate magnetic field distribution and laboratory studies in wet low-intensity magnetic separator

Low-intensity magnetic separators are widely used in the research works and the industry. Advancement in the magnetic separation techniques has led to an expansion in the application of this method in different fields such as enrichment of magnetic mineral, wastewater treatment, and medicine transfer in the human body. In the mineral processing industry, the main application of wet magnetic sep...

Investigations into the applicability of adaptive finite element methods to twodimensional infinite Prandtl number thermal and thermochemical convection

[1] An adaptive finite element procedure is presented for improving the quality of solutions to convectiondominated problems in geodynamics. The method adapts the mesh automatically around regions of high solution gradient, yielding enhanced resolution of the associated flow features. The approach requires the coupling of an automatic mesh generator, a finite element flow solver, and an error e...

A Study of I/o in a pArallel Finite Element Groundwater Transport Code

A parallel finite element groundwater transport code is used to compare three different strategies for performing parallel I/O: (1) have a single processor collect data and perform sequential I/O in large blocks, (2) use variations of vendor specific I/O extensions (3) use the EDONIO I/O library. Each processor performs many writes of one to four kilobytes to reorganize local data in a global s...
