چکیده

An enhanced mixed formulation, based on the general form of the enthalpy, is proposed for phase change problem with convection. This formulation presents the advantage to consider both equal and different liquid-solid physical properties. A fully implicit second order accurate temporal and spatial finite element discretizations is also employed. The numerical simulations for water solidification are presented and compared to the experimental data to illustrate the performance of the proposed numerical method.

Mixed finite element formulation enriched by Adomian method for vibration analysis of horizontally curved beams

Abstract: The vibration analysis of horizontally curved beams is generally led to higher order shape functions using direct finite element method, resulting in more time-consuming computation process. In this paper, the weak-form mixed finite element method was used to reduce the order of shape functions. The shape functions were first considered linear which did not provide adequate accuracy....

Dynamic Fracture Analysis Using an Uncoupled Arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian Finite Element Formulation

This paper deals with the implementation of an efficient Arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian (ALE) formulation for the three dimensional finite element modeling of mode I self-similar dynamic fracture process. Contrary to the remeshing technique, the presented algorithm can continuously advance the crack with the one mesh topology. The uncoupled approach is employed to treat the equations. So, each t...

A Hybridized Crouziex-Raviart Nonconforming Finite Element and Discontinuous Galerkin Method for a Two-Phase Flow in the Porous Media

In this study, we present a numerical solution for the two-phase incompressible flow in the porous media under isothermal condition using a hybrid of the linear lower-order nonconforming finite element and the interior penalty discontinuous Galerkin (DG) method. This hybridization is developed for the first time in the two-phase modeling and considered as the main novelty of this research.The p...

Mixed Convection Flow in a Rectangular Ventilated Cavity with a Heat Conducting Solid Circular Cylinder at the Center

A numerical investigation has been carried out for mixed convection flow in a rectangularventilated cavity with a heat conducting solid circular cylinder at the center. Forced convection flowconditions were imposed by providing an inlet at the bottom of the left wall and an outlet vent at the topto the other sidewall. In this paper, the effect of cavity aspect ratio as well as the mixed convect...

A Defect-Correction Mixed Finite Element Method for Stationary Conduction-Convection Problems

A defect-correction mixed finite element method MFEM for solving the stationary conductionconvection problems in two-dimension is given. In this method, we solve the nonlinear equations with an added artificial viscosity term on a grid and correct this solution on the same grid using a linearized defect-correction technique. The stability is given and the error analysis in L2 and H1-norm of u, ...
