چکیده

An improved front tracking method for hyperbolic conservation laws is presented. The improved method accurately resolves discontinuities as well as continuous phenomena. The method is based on an improved front interaction model for a physically more accurate modeling of the Euler equations, as compared to standard front tracking methods. The resulting algorithm is also more efficient than existing front tracking methods. The improved front tracking method is applied to the Euler equations for one-dimensional unsteady flow and two-dimensional steady supersonic flow. The results are compared to results of a standard front tracking method and a finite volume method. 2006 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved. PACS: 35L65; 35L67; 65M12; 76L05; 76N15

Stability of two classes of improved backward Euler methods for stochastic delay differential equations of neutral type

This paper examines stability analysis of two classes of improved backward Euler methods, namely split-step $(theta, lambda)$-backward Euler (SSBE) and semi-implicit $(theta,lambda)$-Euler (SIE) methods, for nonlinear neutral stochastic delay differential equations (NSDDEs). It is proved that the SSBE method with $theta, lambdain(0,1]$ can recover the exponential mean-square stability with some...

A Meshless Front Tracking Method for the Euler Equations of Fluid Dynamics

A second order front tracking method is developed for solving the Euler equations of inviscid fluid dynamics numerically. Front tracking methods are usually limited to first order accuracy, since they are based on a piecewise constant approximation of the solution. Here the second order convergence is achieved by building a piecewise linear reconstruction of the piecewise constant front trackin...

An Unconditionally Stable Method for the Euler Equations

We discuss how to combine a front tracking method with dimensional splitting to solve numerically systems of conservation laws in two space dimensions. In addition we present an adaptive grid reenement strategy. The method is unconditionally stable and allows for moderately high cfl numbers (typically 1{4), and thus it is highly eecient. The method is applied to the Euler equations of gas dynam...

A front-tracking/ghost-fluid method for fluid interfaces in compressible flows

A front-tracking/ghost-fluid method is introduced for simulations of fluid interfaces in compressible flows. The new method captures fluid interfaces using explicit front-tracking and defines interface conditions with the ghost-fluid method. Several examples of multiphase flow simulations, including a shock–bubble interaction, the Richtmyer–Meshkov instability, the Rayleigh–Taylor instability, ...
