In this paper we study the harmonic map heat flow on the euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^d$ and we show an unconditional uniqueness result for maps with small initial data in the homogeneous Besov space…
We consider an inverse problem for the linear one-dimensional wave equation with variable coefficients consisting in determining an unknown source term from a boundary observation. A method to obtain approximations of this inverse problem…
The fourth-order PDE that models the density variation of smectic A liquid crystals presents unique challenges in its (numerical) analysis beyond more common fourth-order operators, such as the classical biharmonic. While the operator is…
This paper addresses the analysis and numerical assessment of a computational method for solving the Cahn--Hilliard equation defined on a surface. The proposed approach combines the stabilized trace finite element method for spatial…
We describe discretisations of the shallow water equations on the sphere using the framework of finite element exterior calculus, which are extensions of the mimetic finite difference framework presented in Ringler, Thuburn, Klemp, and…
This paper introduces a family of entropy-conserving finite-difference discretizations for the compressible flow equations. In addition to conserving the primary quantities of mass, momentum, and total energy, the methods also preserve…
We introduce a family of hybrid discretisations for the numerical approximation of optimal control problems governed by the equations of immiscible displacement in porous media. The proposed schemes are based on mixed and discontinuous…
We present a new method for motion planning for control systems. The method aims to provide a natural computational framework in which a broad class of motion planning problems can be cast; including problems with holonomic and…
We analyze the flux conservation property of the finite element method. It is shown that the finite element solution does approximate the flux locally in the optimal order, i.e., the same order as that of the nodal interpolation operator.…
Mixed finite element methods are considered for a ferrofluid flow model with magnetization paralleled to the magnetic field. The ferrofluid model is a coupled system of the Maxwell equations and the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations.…
We consider the mathematical analysis and numerical approximation of a system of nonlinear partial differential equations that arises in models that have relevance to steady isochoric flows of colloidal suspensions. The symmetric velocity…
We consider a stochastic heat equation with nonlinear finite-rank space-coloured multiplicative noise that admits a unique nonnegative solution when given nonnegative initial data. Inspired by existing results for fully discrete finite…
We adapt the Gradient Discretisation Method (GDM), originally designed for elliptic and parabolic partial differential equations, to the case of a linear scalar hyperbolic equations. This enables the simultaneous design and convergence…
Methods for discretizing port-Hamiltonian systems are of interest both for simulation and control purposes. Despite the large literature on mixed finite elements, no rigorous analysis of the connections between mixed elements and…
We propose a new unfitted finite element method for simulation of two-phase flows in presence of insoluble surfactant. The key features of the method are 1) discrete conservation of surfactant mass; 2) the possibility of having meshes that…
Interpolation methods for nonlinear finite element discretizations are commonly used to eliminate the computational costs associated with the repeated assembly of the nonlinear systems. While the group finite element formulation…
We consider a model convection-diffusion problem and present useful connections between the finite differences and finite element discretization methods. We introduce a general upwinding Petrov-Galerkin discretization based on bubble…
An algorithm is proposed for generalized mean curvature flow of closed two-dimensional surfaces, which include inverse mean curvature flow, powers of mean and inverse mean curvature flow, etc. Error estimates are proven for semi- and full…
We present recent finite element numerical results on a model convection-diffusion problem in the singular perturbed case when the convection term dominates the problem. We compare the standard Galerkin discretization using the linear…
We propose finite element methods for compressible barotropic Stokes systems. We state convergence results for these methods and outline their proofs. The principal tools of the proofs are higher integrability estimates for the discrete…
