We give a new analysis of Petrov-Galerkin finite element methods for solving linear singularly perturbed two-point boundary value problems without turning points. No use is made of finite difference methodology such as discrete maximum principles, nor of asymptotic expansions. On meshes which are either arbitrary or slightly restricted, we derive energy norm and L norm error bounds. These bound...

A finite element method for the 1-periodic Korteweg-de Vries equation "t + 2uux + "xxx = ° is analyzed. We consider first a semidiscrete method (i.e., discretization only in the space variable), and then we analyze some unconditionally stable fully discrete methods. In a special case, the fully discrete methods reduce to twelve point finite difference schemes (three time levels) which have seco...

Abstract—Closed die forging is a very complex process, and measurement of actual forces for real material is difficult and time consuming. Hence, the modelling technique has taken the advantage of carrying out the experimentation with the proper model material which needs lesser forces and relatively low temperature. The results of experiments on the model material then may be correlated with t...

This paper describes application of information granulation theory, on the back analysis of Jeffrey mine southeast wall Quebec. In this manner, using a combining of Self Organizing Map (SOM) and rough set theory (RST), crisp and rough granules are obtained. Balancing of crisp granules and sub rough granules is rendered in close-open iteration. Combining of hard and soft computing, namely finite...

Like many other additive manufacturing processes, FDM process is driven by a moving heat source, and temperature history plays an important role in determining the mechanical properties and geometry of the final parts. Thermal simulation of FDM is challenging due to geometric complexity of manufacturing process and inherent computational complexity which requires numerical solution at every tim...

We establish a notion of random entropy solution for degenerate fractional conservation laws incorporating randomness in the initial data, convective flux, and diffusive flux. In order to quantify uncertainty, we design multilevel Monte Carlo finite difference method (MLMC-FDM) approximate ensemble average solutions. Furthermore, analyze convergence rates MLMC-FDM compare them with deterministi...

We compare several local absorbing boundary conditions for solving the Helmholtz equation, by a finite difference or finite element method, exterior to a general scatterer. These boundary conditions are imposed on an artificial elliptical or prolate spheroid outer surface. In order to compare the computational solution with an analytical solution, we consider, as an example, scattering about an...

The 3D Laplace equation is one of the important PDEs of physics and describes the phenomonology of electrostatics and magnetostatics. Frequently very precise solution of this PDE is required; but with conventional finite element or finite difference codes this is difficult to achieve because of the need for an exceedingly fine mesh which leads to often prohibitive CPU time. We present an altern...

The concept of topological sensitivity has been successfully employed as an imaging tool to obtain the correct initial topology and preliminary geometry of hidden obstacles for a variety of inverse scattering problems. In this paper, we extend these ideas to acoustic scattering involving transient waveforms and penetrable obstacles. Through a boundary integral equation framework, we present a d...

Finite element and finite difference methods have been widely used, among other methods, to numerically solve the Fokker-Planck equation for investigating the time history of the probability density function of linear and nonlinear 2d and 3d problems, and also the application to 4d problems has been addressed. However, due to the enormous increase of the computational costs, different strategie...
