This technique relies on the reformulation of the fifthorder WENO-JS(WENO scheme presented by Jiang and Shu in J. Comput. Phys. 126:202–228, 1995) scheme designed on uniform grids in terms of one cell-averaged value and its left and/or right interfacial values of the dependent variable.The effect of grid non-uniformity is taken into consideration by a proper interpolation of the interfacial values. On nonuniform grids, the proposed scheme is much more accurate than the original WENO-JS scheme, which was designed for uniform grids. When the grid is uniform, the resulting scheme reduces to the original WENO-JS scheme. In the meantime,the proposed scheme is computationally much more efficient than the fifth-order WENO scheme designed specifically for the non-uniform grids. A number of numerical test cases are simulated to verify the performance of the present scheme.展开更多

Global superconvergence in discrete Hi-norm and global extrapolation in discrete L2-norm are proved. Based on these global estimates the conjugate gradient method (CG) is effective, which is applied to extrapolation cascadic multigrid method (EXCMG). The numerical experiments show that EXCMG is of the global higher accuracy for both function and gradient.展开更多

The reduction is achieved by excluding redundant dry cells, which cannot be effectively avoided with a conventional Cartesian uniform grid system, as the wet area is unknown before computation. The new grid system expands dynamically with wetting, through addition of new cells according to moving wet-dry fronts. The new grid system is straightforward in implementation. Its application in a field-scale flood simulation shows that the new grid system is able to produce the same results as the conventional grid, but the computational efficiency is fairly improved.展开更多

Being constructed on various kinds of hybrid grids, that is, time scales, dynamic derivatives offer superior accuracy and flexibility in approximating mathematically important natural processes with hard-to-predict singularities, such as the epidemic growth with unpredictable jump sizes and option market changes with high uncertainties, as compared with conventional derivatives. In this article, we shall review the novel new concepts, explore delicate relations between the most frequently used second-order dynamic derivatives and conventional derivatives. We shall investigate necessary conditions for guaranteeing the consistency between the two derivatives. We will show that such a consistency may never exist in general. This implies that the dynamic derivatives provide entirely different new tools for sensitive modeling and approximations on hybrid grids. Rigorous error analysis will be given via asymptotic expansions for further modeling and computational applications. Numerical experiments will also be given.展开更多

An equidistribution scheme for two types of extended moving grids is used to generate grids. One type is designed to provide better resolution for the wave surface, and the other type is for highly variable gradients. The method has high-order accuracy because of the use of the Chebyshev polynomial as the basis function. The polynomial is used to interpolate the values between the two non-uniform meshes from a previous time step to the current time step. To attain high accuracy in the time discretization, the fourth-order Adams-Bashforth-Moulton predictor and corrector scheme is used. To avoid numerical oscillations caused by the dispersion term in the Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation, a numerical technique on non-uniform meshes is introduced. The proposed numerical scheme is validated by the applications to the Burgers equation (nonlinear convectiondiffusion problems) and the KdV equation (single solitary and 2-solitary wave problems), where analytical solutions are available for comparisons. Numerical results agree very well with the corresponding analytical solutions in all cases.展开更多
