چکیده

In this paper, we review various methods for the numerical approximations of the Ginzburg–Landau models of superconductivity. Particular attention is given to the different treatment of gauge invariance in both the finite element, finite difference, and finite volume settings. Representative theoretical results, typical numerical simulations, and computational challenges are presented. Generalizations to other relevant models are also discussed. © 2005 American Institute of Physics. DOI: 10.1063/1.2012127

Analysis and Convergence of a Covolume Approximation of the Ginzburg–landau Model of Superconductivity∗

In this paper, we present the mathematical analysis of a covolume method for the approximations of the Ginzburg–Landau (GL) model for superconductivity. A nice feature of this approach is that the gauge invariance properties are retained in discrete approximations based on triangular grids. We also use properties of discrete vector fields to study issues such as the gauge choices and their enfo...

Simplified Ginzburg-landau Models for Superconductivity Valid for High Kappa and High Fields

A formal asymptotic expansion is used to simplify the Ginzburg-Landau model of superconductivity in the limit of large values of the Ginzburg-Landau parameter and high applied magnetic field strengths. The convergence of solutions of the full Ginzburg-Landau equations to solutions of the leading order equations in the hierarchy is demonstrated for both boundary value and periodic problems. The ...

Exact solutions of the 2D Ginzburg-Landau equation by the first integral method

The first integral method is an efficient method for obtaining exact solutions of some nonlinear partial differential equations. This method can be applied to non integrable equations as well as to integrable ones. In this paper, the first integral method is used to construct exact solutions of the 2D Ginzburg-Landau equation.

Analysis and approximation of optimal control problems for a simplified Ginzburg-Landau model of superconductivity

This paper is concerned with optimal control problems for a Ginzburg-Landau model of superconductivity that is valid for high values of the Ginzburg-Landau parameter and high external fields. The control is of Neumann type. We first show that optimal solutions exist. We then show that Lagrange multipliers may be used to enforce the constraints and derive an optimality system from which optimal ...
