We present a parametric finite element approximation of two-phase flow with insoluble surfactant. This free boundary problem is given by the Navier–Stokes equations for the two-phase flow in the bulk, which are coupled to the transport equation for the insoluble surfactant on the interface that separates the two phases. We combine the evolving surface finite element method with an approach prev...

Conventional least squares finite element methods (LSFEM) for incompressible flows conserve mass approximately. In some cases, this can lead to an unacceptable loss of mass and unphysical solutions. In this report we formulate a new, locally conservative LSFEM for the Stokes equations which computes a discrete velocity field that is point-wise divergence free on each element. To this end, we em...

We introduce and analyze a discontinuous Galerkin method for the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations that is based on finite element spaces of the same polynomial order for the approximation of the velocity and the pressure. Stability of this equal-order approach is ensured by a pressure stabilization term. A simple element-by-element postprocessing procedure is used to provide globally dive...

In this paper, Forchheimer equation is used as the constitutive equation for flow through rockfill, and the non-linear two-dimensional governing equation with free surface is solved by a new finite element method in a fixed grid. The model is verified by applying it to different flow conditions. The first scenario, which is assumed to be one-dimensional with analytical solution available for it...

In the present study, free vibration behaviors of of carbon nanotube (CNT) and boron nitride nanotube (BNNT) have been investigated via Eringen’s nonlocal continuum theory. Size effect has been considered via nonlocal continuum theory. Nanotubes have become popular in the world of science thanks to their characteristic properties. In this study, free vibrations of Boron Nitride Nanotube (BNNT) ...
