  1. 1. On discontinuous Galerkin multiscale methods

    Author : Daniel Elfverson; Axel Målqvist; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Beräkningsvetenskap med inriktning mot numerisk analys; Scientific Computing with specialization in Numerical Analysis;

    Abstract : In this thesis a new multiscale method, the discontinuous Galerkin multiscale method, is proposed. The method uses localized fine scale computations to correct a global coarse scale equation and thereby takes the fine scale features into account. READ MORE

  2. 2. Spectral/hp Discontinuous Galerkin Methods for Computational Hydraulics

    Author : Claes Eskilsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; spectral hp elements; surface gravity waves; Boussinesq-type equations; shallow water equations; discontinuous Galerkin method;

    Abstract : We present the concept of spectral/hp element methods, i.e. finite element methods of arbitrarily (high) polynomial order, and apply the methods to computational hydraulics. READ MORE

  3. 3. Finite Difference and Discontinuous Galerkin Methods for Wave Equations

    Author : Siyang Wang; Gunilla Kreiss; Thomas Hagstrom; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Wave propagation; Finite difference method; Discontinuous Galerkin method; Stability; Accuracy; Summation by parts; Normal mode analysis; Beräkningsvetenskap med inriktning mot numerisk analys; Scientific Computing with specialization in Numerical Analysis;

    Abstract : Wave propagation problems can be modeled by partial differential equations. In this thesis, we study wave propagation in fluids and in solids, modeled by the acoustic wave equation and the elastic wave equation, respectively. READ MORE

  4. 4. Efficient Solvers for Space-Time Discontinuous Galerkin Spectral Element Methods

    Author : Lea Miko Versbach; Numerisk analys; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Discontinuous Galerkin Method; Spectral Element Method; Finite Volume Method; Implicit Schemes; Preconditioner; Multigrid Method; Space-Time; Lobatto IIIC Method; Local Fourier Analysis;

    Abstract : In this thesis we study efficient solvers for space-time discontinuous Galerkin spectral element methods (DG-SEM). These discretizations result in fully implicit schemes of variable order in both spatial and temporal directions. READ MORE

  5. 5. Multiscale Methods and Uncertainty Quantification

    Author : Daniel Elfverson; Axel Målqvist; Frédéric Legoll; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; multiscale methods; finite element method; discontinuous Galerkin; Petrov-Galerkin; a priori; a posteriori; complex geometry; uncertainty quantification; multilevel Monte Carlo; failure probability; Beräkningsvetenskap med inriktning mot numerisk analys; Scientific Computing with specialization in Numerical Analysis;

    Abstract : In this thesis we consider two great challenges in computer simulations of partial differential equations: multiscale data, varying over multiple scales in space and time, and data uncertainty, due to lack of or inexact measurements.We develop a multiscale method based on a coarse scale correction, using localized fine scale computations.
