Superconvergence of a Nonconforming Finite Element Approximation to Viscoelasticity Type Equations on Anisotropic Meshes

The main aim of this paper is to study the approximation to viscoelasticity type equations with a Crouzeix-Raviart type nonconforming finite element on the anisotropic meshes. The superclose property of the exact solution and the optimal error estimate of its derivative with respect to time are derived by using some novel techniques. Moreover, employing a postprocessing technique, the global superconvergence property for the discretization error of the postprocessed discrete solution to the solution itself is studied.

In this paper, we consider the following viscoelastic wave equation with delay|u_t|~ρu_(tt)-△u-△u_(tt)+∫_0~t g(t-8)△u(8)d8 + μ_1 u_t(x,t) + μ_2 u_t(x,t-τ) = b|u|^(p-2) u in a bounded domain. Under appropriate conditions on μ1, μ2, the kernel function g, the nonlinear source and the initial data, there are solutions that blow up in finite time.

Under appropriate assumptions ira- posed on the source and the damping, we establish uniform decay rate of the solution energy in terms of the behavior of the nonlinear feedback and the relaxation function, without setting any restrictive growth assumptions on the damping at the origin and weakening the usual assumptions on the relaxation function.

Stability condition of finite difference solution for viscoelastic wave equations

The stability problem is a very important aspect in seismic wave numerical modeling. Based on the theory of seismic waves and constitutive equations of viscoelastic models, the stability problems of finite difference scheme for Kelvin- Voigt and Maxwell models with rectangular grids are analyzed. Expressions of stability conditions with arbitrary spatial accuracies for two viscoelastic models are derived. With approximation of quality factor Q≥5, simplified expressions are developed and some numerical models are given to verify the validity of the corresponding theoretical results. Then this paper summarizes the influences of seismic wave velocity, frequency, size of grid and difference coefficients, as well as quality factor on stability condition. Finally the prerequisite conditions of the simplified stability equations are given with error analysis.

This study develops an optimized finite difference iterative （OFDI） scheme for the two-dimensional （2D） viscoelastic wave equation.

Existence, stability, and convergence of the OFDI solutions are analyzed. Numerical simulations verify efficiency and feasibility of the proposed scheme.

A constitutive equation theory of Oldroyd fluid B type,i.e.the co-rotational derivative type,is developed for the anisotropic-viscoelastic fluid of liquid crystalline(LC)polymer.Analyzing the influence of the orientational motion on the material behavior and neglecting the influence,the constitutive equation is applied to a simple case for the hydrodynamic motion when the orientational contribution is neglected in it and the anisotropic relaxation,retardation times and anisotropic viscosi- ties are introduced to describe the macroscopic behavior of the anisotropic LC polymer fluid.Using the equation for the shear flow of LC polymer fluid,the analytical expressions of the apparent viscosity and the normal stress differences are given which are in a good agreement with the experimental results of Baek et al.For the fiber spinning flow of the fluid,the analytical expression of the extensional viscosity is given.

Characterization for wave equations in viscoelastic media based on the constant Q property

The constant Q property in viscoelastic media assumes that the quality factor Q does not change with frequency(i.e.,the Q value is independent of the frequency).For seismic waves propagating in viscoelastic media,the wave equation is determined by the viscoelastic media model.Equivalence relations exist between various frequency domain mathematical models and physical rheological models for the constant Q property.Considering two elastic moduli and three attenuation variables,24 kinds of wave equations based on diff erent generalized rheological models are divided into six classes in this study,and the 12 kinds of specifi c representation for the wave equations in the time domain are derived.On the basis of the equivalence relations between the generalized rheological models,the diff erence and equivalence relation between diff erent wave equations are proven and clarifi ed.Results show that the high-order generalized rheological model can accurately characterize the attenuation characteristics of seismic waves and has advantages in characterizing the dispersion characteristics in viscoelastic media.Lastly,the seismic refl ection characteristics caused by the diff erence of Q value are verifi ed by the forward modeling of the constant Q wave equation in this study,thereby providing a theoretical basis for the analysis and inversion of the formation Q value from refl ection seismic data.
