Numerical Investigations on the Resonance Errors of Multiscale Discontinuous Galerkin Methods for One-Dimensional Stationary Schrödinger Equation

In this paper,numerical experiments are carried out to investigate the impact of penalty parameters in the numerical traces on the resonance errors of high-order multiscale discontinuous Galerkin(DG)methods(Dong et al.in J Sci Comput 66:321–345,2016;Dong and Wang in J Comput Appl Math 380:1–11,2020)for a one-dimensional stationary Schrödinger equation.Previous work showed that penalty parameters were required to be positive in error analysis,but the methods with zero penalty parameters worked fine in numerical simulations on coarse meshes.In this work,by performing extensive numerical experiments,we discover that zero penalty parameters lead to resonance errors in the multiscale DG methods,and taking positive penalty parameters can effectively reduce resonance errors and make the matrix in the global linear system have better condition numbers.

Multidomain pseudospectral methods for nonlinear convection-diffusion equations

Multidomain pseudospectral approximations to nonlinear convection-diffusion equations are considered. The schemes are formulated with the Legendre-Galerkin method but the nonlinear term is collocated at the Legendre/Chebyshev-Gauss-Lobatto points inside each subinterval. Appropriate base functions are introduced so that the matrix of the system is sparse, and the method can be implemented efficiently and in parallel. The stability and the optimal rate of convergence of the methods are proved. Numerical results are given for both the single domain and the multidomain methods to make a comparison.

CHARACTERISTIC GALERKIN METHOD FOR CONVECTION-DIFFUSION EQUATIONS AND IMPLICIT ALGORITHM USING PRECISE INTEGRATION

This paper presents a finite element procedure for solving transient, multidimensional convection-diffusion equations. The procedure is based on the characteristic Galerkin method with an implicit algorithm using precise integration method. With the operator splitting procedure, the precise integration method is introduced to determine the material derivative in the convection-diffusion equation, consequently, the physical quantities of material points. An implicit algorithm with a combination of both the precise and the traditional numerical integration procedures in time domain in the Lagrange coordinates for the characteristic Galerkin method is formulated. The stability analysis of the algorithm shows that the unconditional stability of present implicit algorithm is enhanced as compared with that of the traditional implicit numerical integration procedure. The numerical results validate the presented method in solving convection-diffusion equations. As compared with SUPG method and explicit characteristic Galerkin method, the present method gives the results with higher accuracy and better stability.

STABILITY OF VISCOUS SHOCK WAVES FOR THE ONE-DIMENSIONAL COMPRESSIBLE NAVIER-STOKES EQUATIONS WITH DENSITY-DEPENDENT VISCOSITY

We study the large-time behavior toward viscous shock waves to the Cauchy problem of the one-dimensional compressible isentropic Navier-Stokes equations with density- dependent viscosity. The nonlinear stability of the viscous shock waves is shown for certain class of large initial perturbation with integral zero which can allow the initial density to have large oscillation. Our analysis relies upon the technique developed by Kanel~ and the continuation argument.

Exponential B-Spline Solution of Convection-Diffusion Equations

We present an exponential B-spline collocation method for solving convection-diffusion equation with Dirichlet’s type boundary conditions. The method is based on the Crank-Nicolson formulation for time integration and exponential B-spline functions for space integration. Using the Von Neumann method, the proposed method is shown to be unconditionally stable. Numerical experiments have been conducted to demonstrate the accuracy of the current algorithm with relatively minimal computational effort. The results showed that use of the present approach in the simulation is very applicable for the solution of convection-diffusion equation. The current results are also seen to be more accurate than some results given in the literature. The proposed algorithm is seen to be very good alternatives to existing approaches for such physical applications.

One-dimensional dynamic equations of a piezoelectric semiconductor beam with a rectangular cross section and their application in static and dynamic characteristic analysis

Within the framework of continuum mechanics, the double power series ex- pansion technique is proposed, and a series of reduced one-dimensional （1D） equations for a piezoelectric semiconductor beam are obtained. These derived equations are universal, in which extension, flexure, and shear deformations are all included, and can be degen- erated to a number of special cases, e.g., extensional motion, coupled extensional and flexural motion with shear deformations, and elementary flexural motion without shear deformations. As a typical application, the extensional motion of a ZnO beam is analyzed sequentially. It is revealed that semi-conduction has a great effect on the performance of the piezoelectric semiconductor beam, including static deformations and dynamic be- haviors. A larger initial carrier density will evidently lead to a lower resonant frequency and a smaller displacement response, which is a little similar to the dissipative effect. Both the derived approximate equations and the corresponding qualitative analysis are general and widely applicable, which can clearly interpret the inner physical mechanism of the semiconductor in the piezoelectrics and provide theoretical guidance for further experimental design.

NONLINEAR STABILITY OF VISCOUS SHOCK WAVES FOR ONE-DIMENSIONAL NONISENTROPIC COMPRESSIBLE NAVIER–STOKES EQUATIONS WITH A CLASS OF LARGE INITIAL PERTURBATION

We study the nonlinear stability of viscous shock waves for the Cauchy problem of one-dimensional nonisentropic compressible Navier–Stokes equations for a viscous and heat conducting ideal polytropic gas. The viscous shock waves are shown to be time asymptotically stable under large initial perturbation with no restriction on the range of the adiabatic exponent provided that the strengths of the viscous shock waves are assumed to be sufficiently small.The proofs are based on the nonlinear energy estimates and the crucial step is to obtain the positive lower and upper bounds of the density and the temperature which are uniformly in time and space.

H^1 space-time discontinuous finite element method for convection-diffusion equations

An H1 space-time discontinuous Galerkin （STDG） scheme for convection- diffusion equations in one spatial dimension is constructed and analyzed. This method is formulated by combining the H1 Galerkin method and the space-time discontinuous finite element method that is discontinuous in time and continuous in space. The existence and the uniqueness of the approximate solution are proved. The convergence of the scheme is analyzed by using the techniques in the finite difference and finite element methods. An optimal a-priori error estimate in the L∞ （H1） norm is derived. The numerical exper- iments are presented to verify the theoretical results.

Two-grid method for characteristic mixed finite-element solutions of nonlinear convection-diffusion equations

A two-grid method for solving nonlinear convection-dominated diffusion equations is presented. The method use discretizations based on a characteristic mixed finite-element method and give the linearization for nonlinear systems by two steps. The error analysis shows that the two-grid scheme combined with the characteristic mixed finite-element method can decrease numerical oscillation caused by dominated convections and solve nonlinear advection-dominated diffusion problems efficiently.

An approach for choosing discretization schemes and grid size based on the convection-diffusion equation

A new approach for selecting proper discretization schemes and grid size is presented. This method is based on the convection-diffusion equation and can provide insight for the Navier-Stokes equation. The approach mainly addresses two aspects, i.e., the practical accuracy of diffusion term discretization and the behavior of high wavenum- ber disturbances. Two criteria are included in this approach. First, numerical diffusion should not affect the theoretical diffusion accuracy near the length scales of interest. This is achieved by requiring numerical diffusion to be smaller than the diffusion discretization error. Second, high wavenumber modes that are.much smaller than the length scales of interest should not be amplified. These two criteria provide a range of suitable scheme combinations for convective flux and diffusive flux and an ideal interval for grid spacing. The effects of time discretization on these criteria are briefly discussed.

A Comparative Numerical Study of Parabolic Partial Integro-Differential Equation Arising from Convection-Diffusion

This article studies the development of two numerical techniques for solving convection-diffusion type partial integro-differential equation(PIDE)with a weakly singular kernel.Cubic trigonometric B-spline(CTBS)functions are used for interpolation in both methods.The first method is CTBS based collocation method which reduces the PIDE to an algebraic tridiagonal system of linear equations.The other method is CTBS based differential quadrature method which converts the PIDE to a system of ODEs by computing spatial derivatives as weighted sum of function values.An efficient tridiagonal solver is used for the solution of the linear system obtained in the first method as well as for determination of weighting coefficients in the second method.An explicit scheme is employed as time integrator to solve the system of ODEs obtained in the second method.The methods are tested with three nonhomogeneous problems for their validation.Stability,computational efficiency and numerical convergence of the methods are analyzed.Comparison of errors in approximations produced by the present methods versus different values of discretization parameters and convection-diffusion coefficients are made.Convection and diffusion dominant cases are discussed in terms of Peclet number.The results are also compared with cubic B-spline collocation method.

In the practical problems such as nuclear waste pollution and seawater intrusion etc., many problems are reduced to solving the convection-diffusion equation, so the research of convection-diffusion equation is of great value.
