The Reynolds equation, combined with the Elrod algorithm for including the effect of cavitation, resembles a nonlinear convection-diffusion-reaction (CDR) equation. Its solution by finite elements is prone to oscillations in…
We model incompressible flows with an adaptive stabilized finite element method Stokes flows, which solves a discretely stable saddle-point problem to approximate the velocity-pressure pair. Additionally, this saddle-point problem delivers…
A proof of convergence is given for a novel evolving surface finite element semi-discretization of Willmore flow of closed two-dimensional surfaces, and also of surface diffusion flow. The numerical method proposed and studied here…
We study convergence of the evolving finite element semi-discretization of a parabolic partial differential equation on an evolving bulk domain. The boundary of the domain evolves with a given velocity, which is then extended to the bulk by…
We construct a finite element discretization and time-stepping scheme for the incompressible Euler equations with variable density that exactly preserves total mass, total squared density, total energy, and pointwise incompressibility. The…
We propose and analyze a monotone finite element method for an elliptic distributed optimal control problem constrained by a convection-diffusion-reaction equation in the convection-dominated regime. The method is based on the edge-averaged…
We introduce discontinuous spectral-element methods of arbitrary order that are well balanced, conservative of mass, and conservative or dissipative of total energy (i.e., a mathematical entropy function) for a covariant flux formulation of…
We consider data assimilation for the heat equation using a finite element space semi-discretization. The approach is optimization based, but the design of regularization operators and parameters rely on techniques from the theory of…
We describe a fully discrete mixed finite element method for the linearized rotating shallow water model, possibly with damping. While Crank-Nicolson time-stepping conserves energy in the absence of drag or forcing terms and is not subject…
We present a finite element approach for diffusion problems with thermal fluctuations based on a fluctuating hydrodynamics model. The governing transport equations are stochastic partial differential equations with a fluctuating forcing…
We develop a new finite difference scheme for the Maxwell-Stefan diffusion system. The scheme is conservative, energy stable and positivity-preserving. These nice properties stem from a variational structure and are proved by reformulating…
This article is devoted to questions concerning the existence of solutions for partial differential equation problems modeling granular flows. The models studied take into account the complex threshold rheology of these flows, as well as…
We develop a novel finite element method for a phase field model of nematic liquid crystal droplets. The continuous model considers a free energy comprised of three components: the Ericksen's energy for liquid crystals, the Cahn-Hilliard…
For a well-posed non-selfadjoint indefinite second-order linear elliptic PDE with general coefficients $\mathbf A, \mathbf b,\gamma$ in $L^\infty$ and symmetric and uniformly positive definite coefficient matrix $\mathbf A$, this paper…
We propose an edge averaged finite element(EAFE) discretization to solve the Heat-PNP (Poisson-Nernst-Planck) equations approximately. Our method enforces positivity of the computed charged density functions and temperature function. Also…
We introduce new control-volume finite-element discretization schemes suitable for solving the Stokes problem. Within a common framework, we present different approaches for constructing such schemes. The first and most established strategy…
In this paper, we propose a multiphysics finite element method for a nonlinear poroelasticity model. To better describe the processes of deformation and diffusion, we firstly reformulate the nonlinear fluid-solid coupling problem into a…
This paper considers weak Galerkin finite element approximations for a quasistatic Maxwell viscoelastic model. The spatial discretization uses piecewise polynomials of degree $k \ (k\geq 1)$ for the stress approximation, degree $k+1$ for…
We introduce a mixed discontinuous/continuous finite element pair for ocean modelling, with continuous quadratic pressure/layer depth and discontinuous velocity. We investigate the finite element pair applied to the linear shallow-water…
We present a stability and convergence analysis of the space-time continuous finite element method for the Hamiltonian formulation of the wave equation. More precisely, we prove a continuous dependence of the discrete solution on the data…
