Convection-Diffusion Problems occur very frequently in applied sciences and engineering. In this paper, the crux of research articles published by numerous researchers during 2007-2011 in referred journals has been presented and this leads to conclusions and recommendations about what methods to use on Convection-Diffusion Problems. It is found that engineers and scientists are using finite ele...

The diffusion-convection model of Cs transport has been used to evaluate the activity-depth profiles of soils in southwestern Nigeria in this study. The experimentally determined depth profiles were fitted into the diffusion-convection equation to obtain the diffusion coefficient D and the convective velocity . Results obtained showed that the range of the diffusion coefficient was 0.72 – 1.02 ...

The numerical solution of a parabolic convection diffusion equation with delay term is considered. This includes both variants, the initial value problem and the prehistory problem. Equations with a delay or memory term, often called integrodifferential problems, appear in different contexts of heat conduction in materials with memory, viscoelasticity and population models. This work concentrat...

This paper discusses the effects that partitioning has on the convergence rate of Domain Decomposition. When Finite Elements are employed to solve a second order elliptic partial differential equation with strong convection and/or anisotropic diffusion, the shape and alignment of a partition’s parts significantly affect the Domain Decomposition convergence rate. Given a PDE, if b is the directi...

A new multigrid algorithm is constructed for the solution of linear systems of equations which arise from the discretization of elliptic PDEs. It is defined in terms of the difference scheme on the fine grid only, and no rediscretization of the PDE is required. Numerical experiments show that this algorithm gives high convergence rates for several classes ofproblems: symmetric, nonsymmetdc and ...

Systems of convection–diffusion equations model a variety of physical phenomena which often occur in real life. Computing the solutions of these systems, especially in the convection dominated case, is an important and challenging problem that requires development of fast, reliable and accurate numerical methods. In this paper, we propose a second-order fast explicit operator splitting (FEOS) m...

We study the inverse problem of recovering a semilinear diffusion term $a(t,\lambda)$ as well quasilinear convection $\mathcal B(t,x,\lambda,\xi)$ in nonlinear parabolic equation $$\partial_tu-\textrm{div}(a(t,u) \nabla u)+\mathcal B(t,x,u,\nabla u)\cdot\nabla u=0, \quad \mbox{in}\ (0,T)\times\Omega,$$ given knowledge flux moving quantity associated with different sources applied at boundary do...
