We study the transport properties of nonautonomous chaotic dynamical systems over a finite time duration. We are particularly interested in those regions that remain coherent and relatively non-dispersive over finite periods of time,…
The study of transport and mixing processes in dynamical systems is particularly important for the analysis of mathematical models of physical systems. We propose a novel, direct geometric method to identify subsets of phase space that…
Finite-time coherent sets represent minimally mixing objects in general nonlinear dynamics, and are spatially mobile features that are the most predictable in the medium term. When the dynamical system is subjected to small parameter…
One way to analyze complicated non-autonomous flows is through trying to understand their transport behavior. In a quantitative, set-oriented approach to transport and mixing, finite time coherent sets play an important role. These are…
Finite-time coherent sets (FTCSs) are distinguished regions of phase space that resist mixing with the surrounding space for some finite period of time; physical manifestations include eddies and vortices in the ocean and atmosphere,…
The finite element simulation of dynamic wetting phenomena, requiring the computation of flow in a domain confined by intersecting a liquid-fluid free surface and a liquid-solid interface, with the three-phase contact line moving across the…
We consider a randomised implementation of the finite element method (FEM) for elliptic partial differential equations on high-dimensional models. This is motivated by applications where model predictions are essential for real-time process…
We describe a mathematical formalism and numerical algorithms for identifying and tracking slowly mixing objects in nonautonomous dynamical systems. In the autonomous setting, such objects are variously known as almost-invariant sets,…
Understanding the macroscopic behavior of dynamical systems is an important tool to unravel transport mechanisms in complex flows. A decomposition of the state space into coherent sets is a popular way to reveal this essential macroscopic…
The Finite Element Method (FEM) is the gold standard for spatial discretization in numerical simulations for a wide spectrum of real-world engineering problems. Prototypical areas of interest include linear heat transfer and linear…
In this article, we consider exactly divergence-free $H$(div)-conforming finite element methods for time-dependent incompressible viscous flow problems. This is an extension of previous research concerning divergence-free $H^1$-conforming…
Coherent sets are time-dependent regions in the physical space of nonautonomous flows that exhibit little mixing with their neighborhoods, robustly under small random perturbations of the flow. They thus characterize the global long-term…
This article surveys research on the application of compatible finite element methods to large scale atmosphere and ocean simulation. Compatible finite element methods extend Arakawa's C-grid finite difference scheme to the finite element…
Dynamical systems often exhibit the emergence of long-lived coherent sets, which are regions in state space that keep their geometric integrity to a high extent and thus play an important role in transport. In this article, we provide a…
A new field of numerical astrophysics is introduced which addresses the solution of large, multidimensional structural or slowly-evolving problems (rotating stars, interacting binaries, thick advective accretion disks, four dimensional…
In this paper, we study the stability and convergence of a decoupled and linearized mixed finite element method (FEM) for incompressible miscible displacement in a porous media whose permeability and porosity are discontinuous across some…
This paper focuses on the study of the Filament Based Lamellipodium Model (FBLM) and the corresponding Finite Element Method (FEM) from a numerical point of view. We study fundamental numerical properties of the FEM and justify the further…
Finite time coherent sets [8] have recently been defined by a measure based objective function describing the degree that sets hold together, along with a Frobenius-Perron transfer operator method to produce optimally coherent sets. Here we…
We propose an efficient and accurate parametric finite element method (PFEM) for solving sharp-interface continuum models for solid-state dewetting of thin films with anisotropic surface energies. The governing equations of the…
The problem of determining the manner in which an incoming acoustic wave is scattered by an elastic body immersed in a fluid is one of central importance in detecting and identifying submerged objects. The problem is generally referred to…
