On the convergence of a finite volume method for the Navier–Stokes–Fourier system
Abstract The goal of the paper is to study the convergence of finite volume approximations of the Navier–Stokes–Fourier system describing the motion of compressible, viscous and heat-conducting fluids. The numerical flux uses upwinding with an additional numerical diffusion of order $\mathcal O(h^{ \varepsilon +1})$, $0<\varepsilon <1$. The approximate solutions are piecewise constant functions with respect to the underlying polygonal mesh. We show that the numerical solutions converge strongly to the classical solution as long as the latter exists. On the other hand, any uniformly bounded sequence of numerical solutions converges unconditionally to the classical solution of t…
On the existence of weak solution to the coupled fluid-structure interaction problem for non-Newtonian shear-dependent fluid
We study the existence of weak solution for unsteady fluid-structure interaction problem for shear-thickening flow. The time dependent domain has at one part a flexible elastic wall. The evolution of fluid domain is governed by the generalized string equation with action of the fluid forces. The power-law viscosity model is applied to describe shear-dependent non-Newtonian fluids.
New Invariant Domain Preserving Finite Volume Schemes for Compressible Flows
We present new invariant domain preserving finite volume schemes for the compressible Euler and Navier–Stokes–Fourier systems. The schemes are entropy stable and preserve positivity of density and internal energy. More importantly, their convergence towards a strong solution of the limit system has been proved rigorously in [9, 11]. We will demonstrate their accuracy and robustness on a series of numerical experiments.
On the Weak Solution of the Fluid-Structure Interaction Problem for Shear-Dependent Fluids
In this paper the coupled fluid-structure interaction problem for incompressible non-Newtonian shear-dependent fluid flow in two-dimensional time-dependent domain is studied. One part of the domain boundary consists of an elastic wall. Its temporal evolution is governed by the generalized string equation with action of the fluid forces by means of the Neumann type boundary condition. The aim of this work is to present the limiting process for the auxiliary \((\kappa,\varepsilon,k)\)-problem. The weak solution of this auxiliary problem has been studied in our recent work (Hundertmark-Zauskova, Lukacova-Medvid’ova, Necasova, On the existence of weak solution to the coupled fluid-structure in…
𝒦-convergence as a new tool in numerical analysis
Abstract We adapt the concept of $\mathscr{K}$-convergence of Young measures to the sequences of approximate solutions resulting from numerical schemes. We obtain new results on pointwise convergence of numerical solutions in the case when solutions of the limit continuous problem possess minimal regularity. We apply the abstract theory to a finite volume method for the isentropic Euler system describing the motion of a compressible inviscid fluid. The result can be seen as a nonlinear version of the fundamental Lax equivalence theorem.
