Cost-effective Multiresolution schemes for Shock Computations
Harten's Multiresolution framework has provided a fruitful environment for the development of adaptive codes for hyperbolic PDEs. The so-called cost-effective alternative [4,8,21] seeks to achieve savings in the computational cost of the underlying numerical technique, but not in the overall memory requirements of the code. Since the data structure of the basic algorithm does not need to be modified, it provides a set of tools that can be easily implemented into existing codes and that can be very useful in order to speed up the numerical simulations involved in the testing process that is associated to the development of new numerical schemes. In this paper we present two different applica…
Multiresolution-based adaptive schemes for Hyperbolic Conservation Laws
Starting in the early nineties, wavelet and wavelet-like techniques have been successfully used to design adaptive schemes for the numerical solution of certain types of PDE. In this paper we review two representative examples of the development of such techniques for Hyperbolic Conservation Laws.
A fully adaptive wavelet algorithm for parabolic partial differential equations
We present a fully adaptive numerical scheme for the resolution of parabolic equations. It is based on wavelet approximations of functions and operators. Following the numerical analysis in the case of linear equations, we derive a numerical algorithm essentially based on convolution operators that can be efficiently implemented as soon as a natural condition on the space of approximation is satisfied. The algorithm is extended to semi-linear equations with time dependent (adapted) spaces of approximation. Numerical experiments deal with the heat equation as well as the Burgers equation.
A High-Resolution Penalization Method for large Mach number Flows in the presence of Obstacles
International audience; A penalization method is applied to model the interaction of large Mach number compressible flows with obstacles. A supplementary term is added to the compressible Navier-Stokes system, seeking to simulate the effect of the Brinkman-penalization technique used in incompressible flow simulations including obstacles. We present a computational study comparing numerical results obtained with this method to theoretical results and to simulations with Fluent software. Our work indicates that this technique can be very promising in applications to complex flows.
Hybrid WENO schemes for polydisperse sedimentation models
International audience; Polydisperse sedimentation models can be described by a strongly coupled system of conservation laws for the concentration of each species of solids. Typical solutions for the sedimentation model considered for batch settling in a column include stationary kinematic shocks separating layers of sediment of different composition. This phenomenon, known as segregation of species, is a specially demanding task for numerical simulation due to the need of accurate numerical simulations. Very high-order accurate solutions can be constructed by incorporating characteristic information, available due to the hyperbolicity analysis made in Donat and Mulet [A secular equation fo…
