A Full Predictor-Corrector Finite Element Method for the One-Dimensional Heat Equation with Time-Dependent Singularities

The energy norm convergence rate of the finite element solution of the heat equation is reduced by the time-regularity of the exact solution. This paper presents an adaptive finite element treatment of time-dependent singularities on the one-dimensional heat equation. The method is based on a Fourier decomposition of the solution and an extraction formula of the coefficients of the singularities coupled with a predictor-corrector algorithm. The method recovers the optimal convergence rate of the finite element method on a quasi-uniform mesh refinement. Numerical results are carried out to show the efficiency of the method.

This article investigates the well posedness and asymptotic behavior of Neumann initial boundary value problems for a class of pseudo-parabolic equations with singular potential and logarithmic nonlinearity. By utilizing cut-off techniques and combining with the Faedo Galerkin approximation method, local solvability was established. Based on the potential well method and Hardy Sobolev inequality, derive the global existence of the solution. In addition, we also obtained the results of decay.

The proof uses a fixed point theorem in cone theory.

THE SINGULAR LIMIT OF SECOND-GRADE FLUID EQUATIONS IN A 2D EXTERIOR DOMAIN

In this paper, we consider the second-grade fluid equations in a 2D exterior domain satisfying the non-slip boundary conditions. The second-grade fluid model is a wellknown non-Newtonian fluid model, with two parameters: α, which represents the length-scale,while ν > 0 corresponds to the viscosity. We prove that, as ν, α tend to zero, the solution of the second-grade fluid equations with suitable initial data converges to the one of Euler equations, provided that ν = o(α^(4/3)). Moreover, the convergent rate is obtained.

On the Numerical Solution of Singular Integral Equation with Degenerate Kernel Using Laguerre Polynomials

In this paper, we derive a simple and efficient matrix formulation using Laguerre polynomials to solve the singular integral equation with degenerate kernel. This method is based on replacement of the unknown function by truncated series of well known Laguerre expansion of functions. This leads to a system of algebraic equations with Laguerre coefficients. Thus, by solving the matrix equation, the coefficients are obtained. Some numerical examples are included to demonstrate the validity and applicability of the proposed method.

Approximate Controllability of Second-Order Neutral Stochastic Differential Equations with Infinite Delay and Poisson Jumps

The modelling of risky asset by stochastic processes with continuous paths, based on Brow- nian motions, suffers from several defects. First, the path continuity assumption does not seem reason- able in view of the possibility of sudden price variations （jumps） resulting of market crashes. A solution is to use stochastic processes with jumps, that will account for sudden variations of the asset prices. On the other hand, such jump models are generally based on the Poisson random measure. Many popular economic and financial models described by stochastic differential equations with Poisson jumps. This paper deals with the approximate controllability of a class of second-order neutral stochastic differential equations with infinite delay and Poisson jumps. By using the cosine family of operators, stochastic analysis techniques, a new set of sufficient conditions are derived for the approximate controllability of the above control system. An example is provided to illustrate the obtained theory.

An improved convolution perfectly matched layer for elastic second-order wave equation

A convolution perfectly matched layer(CPML)can efficiently absorb boundary reflection in numerical simulation.However,the CPML is suitable for the first-order elastic wave equation and is difficult to apply directly to the second-order elastic wave equation.In view of this,based on the first-order CPML absorbing boundary condition,we propose a new CPML(NCPML)boundary which can be directly applied to the second-order wave equation.We first systematically extend the first-order CPML technique into second-order wave equations,neglecting the space-varying characteristics of the partial damping coefficient in the complex-frequency domain,avoiding the generation of convolution in the time domain.We then transform the technique back to the time domain through the inverse Fourier transform.Numerical simulation indicates that the space-varying characteristics of the attenuation factor have little influence on the absorption effect and increase the memory at the same time.A number of numerical examples show that the NCPML proposed in this study is effective in simulating elastic wave propagation,and this algorithm is more efficient and requires less memory allocation than the conventional PML absorbing boundary.

In this article,some high-order local discontinuous Galerkin(LDG)schemes based on some second-order θ approximation formulas in time are presented to solve a two-dimen-sional nonlinear fractional diffusion equation.The unconditional stability of the LDG scheme is proved,and an a priori error estimate with O(h^(k+1)+At^(2))is derived,where k≥0 denotes the index of the basis function.Extensive numerical results with Q^(k)(k=0,1,2,3)elements are provided to confirm our theoretical results,which also show that the second-order convergence rate in time is not impacted by the changed parameter θ.

P-and S-wavefield simulations using both the firstand second-order separated wave equations through a high-order staggered grid finite-difference method

In seismic exploration, it is common practice to separate the P-wavefield from the S-wavefield by the elastic wavefield decomposition technique, for imaging purposes. However, it is sometimes difficult to achieve this, especially when the velocity field is complex. A useful approach in multi-component analysis and modeling is to directly solve the elastic wave equations for the pure P- or S-wavefields, referred as the separate elastic wave equa- tions. In this study, we compare two kinds of such wave equations： the first-order （velocity-stress） and the second- order （displacement-stress） separate elastic wave equa- tions, with the first-order （velocity-stress） and the second- order （displacement-stress） full （or mixed） elastic wave equations using a high-order staggered grid finite-differ- ence method. Comparisons are given of wavefield snap- shots, common-source gather seismic sections, and individual synthetic seismogram. The simulation tests show that equivalent results can be obtained, regardless of whether the first-order or second-order separate elastic wave equations are used for obtaining the pure P- or S-wavefield. The stacked pure P- and S-wavefields are equal to the mixed wave fields calculated using the corre- sponding first-order or second-order full elastic wave equations. These mixed equations are computationallyslightly less expensive than solving the separate equations. The attraction of the separate equations is that they achieve separated P- and S-wavefields which can be used to test the efficacy of wave decomposition procedures in multi-com- ponent processing. The second-order separate elastic wave equations are a good choice because they offer information on the pure P-wave or S-wave displacements.

Second-order two-scale analysis and numerical algorithms for the hyperbolic–parabolic equations with rapidly oscillating coefficients

We study the hyperbolic–parabolic equations with rapidly oscillating coefficients. The formal second-order two-scale asymptotic expansion solutions are constructed by the multiscale asymptotic analysis. In addition, we theoretically explain the importance of the second-order two-scale solution by the error analysis in the pointwise sense. The associated explicit convergence rates are also obtained. Then a second-order two-scale numerical method based on the Newmark scheme is presented to solve the equations. Finally, some numerical examples are used to verify the effectiveness and efficiency of the multiscale numerical algorithm we proposed.
