Book Synopsis BEM-based Finite Element Approaches on Polytopal Meshes by : Steffen Weißer
Download or read book BEM-based Finite Element Approaches on Polytopal Meshes written by Steffen Weißer and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-07-18 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book introduces readers to one of the first methods developed for the numerical treatment of boundary value problems on polygonal and polyhedral meshes, which it subsequently analyzes and applies in various scenarios. The BEM-based finite element approaches employs implicitly defined trial functions, which are treated locally by means of boundary integral equations. A detailed construction of high-order approximation spaces is discussed and applied to uniform, adaptive and anisotropic polytopal meshes. The main benefits of these general discretizations are the flexible handling they offer for meshes, and their natural incorporation of hanging nodes. This can especially be seen in adaptive finite element strategies and when anisotropic meshes are used. Moreover, this approach allows for problem-adapted approximation spaces as presented for convection-dominated diffusion equations. All theoretical results and considerations discussed in the book are verified and illustrated by several numerical examples and experiments. Given its scope, the book will be of interest to mathematicians in the field of boundary value problems, engineers with a (mathematical) background in finite element methods, and advanced graduate students.
Book Synopsis An Introduction to Element-Based Galerkin Methods on Tensor-Product Bases by : Francis X. Giraldo
Download or read book An Introduction to Element-Based Galerkin Methods on Tensor-Product Bases written by Francis X. Giraldo and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-10-30 with total page 559 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book introduces the reader to solving partial differential equations (PDEs) numerically using element-based Galerkin methods. Although it draws on a solid theoretical foundation (e.g. the theory of interpolation, numerical integration, and function spaces), the book’s main focus is on how to build the method, what the resulting matrices look like, and how to write algorithms for coding Galerkin methods. In addition, the spotlight is on tensor-product bases, which means that only line elements (in one dimension), quadrilateral elements (in two dimensions), and cubes (in three dimensions) are considered. The types of Galerkin methods covered are: continuous Galerkin methods (i.e., finite/spectral elements), discontinuous Galerkin methods, and hybridized discontinuous Galerkin methods using both nodal and modal basis functions. In addition, examples are included (which can also serve as student projects) for solving hyperbolic and elliptic partial differential equations, including both scalar PDEs and systems of equations.

Book Synopsis Exercises in Numerical Linear Algebra and Matrix Factorizations by : Tom Lyche
Download or read book Exercises in Numerical Linear Algebra and Matrix Factorizations written by Tom Lyche and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-11-02 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To put the world of linear algebra to advanced use, it is not enough to merely understand the theory; there is a significant gap between the theory of linear algebra and its myriad expressions in nearly every computational domain. To bridge this gap, it is essential to process the theory by solving many exercises, thus obtaining a firmer grasp of its diverse applications. Similarly, from a theoretical perspective, diving into the literature on advanced linear algebra often reveals more and more topics that are deferred to exercises instead of being treated in the main text. As exercises grow more complex and numerous, it becomes increasingly important to provide supporting material and guidelines on how to solve them, supporting students’ learning process. This book provides precisely this type of supporting material for the textbook “Numerical Linear Algebra and Matrix Factorizations,” published as Vol. 22 of Springer’s Texts in Computational Science and Engineering series. Instead of omitting details or merely providing rough outlines, this book offers detailed proofs, and connects the solutions to the corresponding results in the textbook. For the algorithmic exercises the utmost level of detail is provided in the form of MATLAB implementations. Both the textbook and solutions are self-contained. This book and the textbook are of similar length, demonstrating that solutions should not be considered a minor aspect when learning at advanced levels.

Book Synopsis Partitioned Polytopal Finite-element Methods for Nonlinear Solid Mechanics by : Brian Doran Giffin
Download or read book Partitioned Polytopal Finite-element Methods for Nonlinear Solid Mechanics written by Brian Doran Giffin and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work presents a novel polytopal finite-element framework that addresses the collective issues of discretization sensitivity and mesh generation for computational solid mechanics problems. The use of arbitrary polygonal and polyhedral shapes in place of canonical isoparametric elements seeks to remediate issues pertaining to meshing and mesh quality (particularly for irregularly shaped elements), while maintaining many of the desirable features of a traditional finite element method. A general class of partitioned element methods (PEM) is proposed and analyzed, constituting a family of approaches for constructing piecewise polynomial approximations to harmonic shape functions on arbitrary polytopes. Such methods require a geometric partition of each element, and under certain conditions will directly yield integration consistency. Two partitioned element methods are explored in detail, including a novel approach herein referred to as the discontinuous Galerkin partitioned-element method (DG-PEM). An implementational framework for the DG-PEM is presented, along with a discussion of its associated numerical challenges. The numerical precision of the PEM is explored via classical patch tests and single element tests for a representative sampling of polygonal element shapes. Solution sensitivity with respect to element shape is examined for a handful of problems, including a mesh convergence study in the nearly incompressible regime. Finally, the efficacy of the DG-PEM is assessed for a number of benchmark problems involving large deformations and nonlinear material behavior.
Book Synopsis The GETMe Mesh Smoothing Framework by : Dimitris P. Vartziotis
Download or read book The GETMe Mesh Smoothing Framework written by Dimitris P. Vartziotis and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-12-07 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: High quality meshes play a key role in many applications based on digital modeling and simulation. The finite element method is a paragon for such an approach and it is well known that quality meshes can significantly improve computational efficiency and solution accuracy of this method. Therefore, a lot of effort has been put in methods for improving mesh quality. These range from simple geometric approaches, like Laplacian smoothing, with a high computational efficiency but possible low resulting mesh quality, to global optimization-based methods, resulting in an excellent mesh quality at the cost of an increased computational and implementational complexity. The geometric element transformation method (GETMe) aims to fill the gap between these two approaches. It is based on geometric mesh element transformations, which iteratively transform polygonal and polyhedral elements into their regular counterparts or into elements with a prescribed shape. GETMe combines a Laplacian smoothing-like computational efficiency with a global optimization-like effectiveness. The method is straightforward to implement and its variants can also be used to improve tangled and anisotropic meshes. This book describes the mathematical theory of geometric element transformations as foundation for mesh smoothing. It gives a thorough introduction to GETMe-based mesh smoothing and its algorithms providing a framework to focus on effectively improving key mesh quality aspects. It addresses the improvement of planar, surface, volumetric, mixed, isotropic, and anisotropic meshes and addresses aspects of combining mesh smoothing with topological mesh modification. The advantages of GETMe-based mesh smoothing are demonstrated by the example of various numerical tests. These include smoothing of real world meshes from engineering applications as well as smoothing of synthetic meshes for demonstrating key aspects of GETMe-based mesh improvement. Results are compared with those of other smoothing methods in terms of runtime behavior, mesh quality, and resulting finite element solution efficiency and accuracy. Features: • Helps to improve finite element mesh quality by applying geometry-driven mesh smoothing approaches. • Supports the reader in understanding and implementing GETMe-based mesh smoothing. • Discusses aspects and properties of GETMe smoothing variants and thus provides guidance for choosing the appropriate mesh improvement algorithm. • Addresses smoothing of various mesh types: planar, surface, volumetric, isotropic, anisotropic, non-mixed, and mixed. • Provides and analyzes geometric element transformations for polygonal and polyhedral elements with regular and non-regular limits. • Includes a broad range of numerical examples and compares results with those of other smoothing methods.
