Adaptive Runge-Kutta Discontinuous Galerkin Methods with Modified Ghost Fluid Method for Simulating the Compressible Two-Medium Flow

In this paper, we investigate using the adaptive Runge-Kutta discontinuous Galerkin (RKDG) methods with the modified ghost fluid method (MGFM) in conjunction with the adaptive RKDG methods for solving the level set function to simulate the compressible two-medium flow in one and two dimensions. A shock detection technique (KXRCF method) is adopted as an indicator to identify the troubled cell, which serves for further numerical limiting procedure which uses a modified TVB limiter to reconstruct different degrees of freedom and an adaptive mesh refinement procedure. If the computational mesh should be refined or coarsened, and the detail of the implementation algorithm is presented on how to modulate the hanging nodes and redefine the numerical solutions of the two-medium flow and the level set function on such adaptive mesh. Extensive numerical tests are provided to illustrate the proposed adaptive methods may possess the capability of enhancing the resolutions nearby the discontinuities inside of the single medium flow region and material interfacial vicinities of the two-medium flow region.     

High order Hybrid central—WENO finite difference scheme for conservation laws

In this article we present a high resolution hybrid central finite difference—WENO scheme for the solution of conservation laws, in particular, those related to shock–turbulence interaction problems. A sixth order central finite difference scheme is conjugated with a fifth order weighted essentially non-oscillatory WENO scheme in a grid-based adaptive way. High order multi-resolution analysis is used to detect the high gradients regions of the numerical solution in order to capture the shocks with the WENO scheme while the smooth regions are computed with the more efficient and accurate central finite difference scheme. The application of high order filtering to mitigate the dispersion error of central finite difference schemes is also discussed. Numerical experiments with the 1D compressible Euler equations are shown.     

Numerical experiments on a hybrid WENO5 filter for shock‐capturing

In the present paper, a hybrid filter is introduced for high accurate numerical simulation of shock‐containing flows. The fourth‐order compact finite difference scheme is used for the spatial discretization and the third‐order Runge–Kutta scheme is used for the time integration. After each time‐step, the hybrid filter is applied on the results. The filter is composed of a linear sixth‐order filter and the dissipative part of a fifth‐order weighted essentially nonoscillatory scheme (WENO5). The classic WENO5 scheme and the WENO5 scheme with adaptive order (WENO5‐AO) are used to form the hybrid filter. Using a shock‐detecting sensor, the hybrid filter reduces to the linear sixth‐order filter in smooth regions for damping high frequency waves and reduces to the WENO5 filter at shocks in order to eliminate unwanted oscillations produced by the nondissipative spatial discretization method. The filter performance and accuracy of the results are examined through several test cases including the advection, Euler and Navier–Stokes equations. The results are compared with that of a hybrid second‐order filter and also that of the WENO5 and WENO5‐AO schemes.     

Second Order Multigrid Methods for Elliptic Problems with Discontinuous Coefficients on an Arbitrary Interface,I: One Dimensional Problems

In this paper we present a one dimensional second order accurate method to solve Elliptic equations with discontinuous coefficients on an arbitrary interface. Second order accuracy for the first derivative is obtained as well. The method is based on the Ghost Fluid Method, making use of ghost points on which the value is defined by suitable interface conditions. The multi-domain formulation is adopted, where the problem is split in two sub-problems and interface conditions will be enforced to close the problem. Interface conditions are relaxed together with the internal equations (following the approach proposed in [10] in the case of smooth coefficients), leading to an iterative method on all the set of grid values (inside points and ghost points). A multigrid approach with a suitable definition of the restriction operator is provided. The restriction of the defect is performed separately for both sub-problems, providing a convergence factor close to the one measured in the case of smooth coefficient and independent on the magnitude of the jump in the coefficient. Numerical tests will confirm the second order accuracy. Although the method is proposed in one dimension, the extension in higher dimension is currently underway [12] and it will be carried out by combining the discretization of [10] with the multigrid approach of [11] for Elliptic problems with non-eliminated boundary conditions in arbitrary domain.     

An efficient TVD‐WENO method for conservation laws

In this article, we present a high‐resolution hybrid scheme for solving hyperbolic conservation laws in one and two dimensions. In this scheme, we use a cheap fourth order total variation diminishing (TVD) scheme for smooth region and expensive seventh order weighted nonoscillatory (WENO) scheme near discontinuities. To distinguish between the smooth parts and discontinuities, we use an efficient adaptive multiresolution technique. For time integration, we use the third order TVD Runge‐Kutta scheme. The accuracy of the resulting hybrid high order scheme is comparable with these of WENO, but with significant decrease of the CPU cost. Numerical demonstrates that the proposed scheme is comparable to the high order WENO scheme and superior to the fourth order TVD scheme. Our scheme has the added advantage of simplicity and computational efficiency. Numerical tests are presented which show the robustness and effectiveness of the proposed scheme.© 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Numer Methods Partial Differential Eq, 2009     

An interpolation matched interface and boundary method for elliptic interface problems

An interpolation matched interface and boundary (IMIB) method with second-order accuracy is developed for elliptic interface problems on Cartesian grids, based on original MIB method proposed by Zhou et al. [Y. Zhou, G. Wei, On the fictious-domain and interpolation formulations of the matched interface and boundary method, J. Comput. Phys. 219 (2006) 228-246]. Explicit and symmetric finite difference formulas at irregular grid points are derived by virtue of the level set function. The difference scheme using IMIB method is shown to satisfy the discrete maximum principle for a certain class of problems. Rigorous error analyses are given for the IMIB method applied to one-dimensional (1D) problems with piecewise constant coefficients and two-dimensional (2D) problems with singular sources. Comparison functions are constructed to obtain a sharp error bound for 1D approximate solutions. Furthermore, we compare the ghost fluid method (GFM), immersed interface method (IIM), MIB and IMIB methods for 1D problems. Finally, numerical examples are provided to show the efficiency and robustness of the proposed method.

An efficient WENO scheme for solving hyperbolic conservation laws

In this paper we propose a new WENO scheme, in which we use a central WENO [G. Capdeville, J. Comput. Phys. 227 (2008) 2977-3014] (CWENO) reconstruction combined with the smoothness indicators introduced in [R. Borges, M. Carmona, B. Costa, W. Sun Don, J. Comput. Phys. 227 (2008) 3191-3211] (IWENO). We use the central-upwind flux [A. Kurganov, S. Noelle, G. Petrova, SIAM J. Sci. Comp. 23 (2001) 707-740] which is simple, universal and efficient. For time integration we use the third order TVD Runge-Kutta scheme. The resulting scheme improves the convergence order at critical points of smooth parts of solution as well as decrease the dissipation near discontinuities. Numerical experiments of the new scheme for one and two-dimensional problems are reported. The results demonstrates that the proposed scheme is superior to the original CWENO and IWENO schemes.     

Mapped WENO schemes based on a new smoothness indicator for Hamilton–Jacobi equations

In this paper, we introduce an improved version of mapped weighted essentially non-oscillatory (WENO) schemes for solving Hamilton–Jacobi equations. To this end, we first discuss new smoothness indicators for WENO construction. Then the new smoothness indicators are combined with the mapping function developed by Henrick et al. (2005) [31]. The proposed scheme yields fifth-order accuracy in smooth regions and sharply resolve discontinuities in the derivatives. Numerical experiments are provided to demonstrate the performance of the proposed schemes on a variety of one-dimensional and two-dimensional problems.     

High order accurate semi-implicit WENO schemes for hyperbolic balance laws

In this paper we propose a family of well-balanced semi-implicit numerical schemes for hyperbolic conservation and balance laws. The basic idea of the proposed schemes lies in the combination of the finite volume WENO discretization with Roe’s solver and the strong stability preserving (SSP) time integration methods, which ensure the stability properties of the considered schemes [S. Gottlieb, C.-W. Shu, E. Tadmor, Strong stability-preserving high-order time discretization methods, SIAM Rev. 43 (2001) 89-112]. While standard WENO schemes typically use explicit time integration methods, in this paper we are combining WENO spatial discretization with optimal SSP singly diagonally implicit (SDIRK) methods developed in [L. Ferracina, M.N. Spijker, Strong stability of singly diagonally implicit Runge-Kutta methods, Appl. Numer. Math. 58 (2008) 1675-1686]. In this way the implicit WENO numerical schemes are obtained. In order to reduce the computational effort, the implicit part of the numerical scheme is linearized in time by taking into account the complete WENO reconstruction procedure. With the proposed linearization the new semi-implicit finite volume WENO schemes are designed.A detailed numerical investigation of the proposed numerical schemes is presented in the paper. More precisely, schemes are tested on one-dimensional linear scalar equation and on non-linear conservation law systems. Furthermore, well-balanced semi-implicit WENO schemes for balance laws with geometrical source terms are defined. Such schemes are then applied to the open channel flow equations. We prove that the defined numerical schemes maintain steady state solution of still water. The application of the new schemes to different open channel flow examples is shown.     

Symmetrical weighted essentially non‐oscillatory‐flux limiter schemes for Hamilton–Jacobi equations

In this paper, we propose a new scheme that combines weighted essentially non‐oscillatory (WENO) procedures together with monotone upwind schemes to approximate the viscosity solution of the Hamilton–Jacobi equations. In one‐dimensional (1D) case, first, we obtain an optimum polynomial on a four‐point stencil. This optimum polynomial is third‐order accurate in regions of smoothness. Next, we modify a second‐order ENO polynomial by choosing an additional point inside the stencil in order to obtain the highest accuracy when combined with the Harten–Osher reconstruction‐evolution method limiter. Finally, the optimum polynomial is considered as a symmetric and convex combination of three polynomials with ideal weights. Following the methodology of the classic WENO procedure, then, we calculate the non‐oscillatory weights with the ideal weights. Numerical experiments in 1D and 2D are performed to compare the capability of the hybrid scheme to WENO schemes. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

The motivation is that the high order anti-diffusive WENOscheme for conservation laws produces sharp resolution of contact discontinuities whilekeeping high order accuracy for the approximation in the smooth region of the solution.The application of the anti-diffusive high order WENO scheme to the Saint-Venant systemof shallow water equations with transport of pollutant achieves high resolution

Ghost Point Diffusion Maps for Solving Elliptic PDEs on Manifolds with Classical Boundary Conditions

In this paper, we extend the class of kernel methods, the so-called diffusion maps (DM) and its local kernel variants to approximate second-order differential operators defined on smooth manifolds with boundaries that naturally arise in elliptic PDE models. To achieve this goal, we introduce the ghost point diffusion maps (GPDM) estimator on an extended manifold, identified by the set of point clouds on the unknown original manifold together with a set of ghost points, specified along the estimated tangential direction at the sampled points on the boundary. The resulting GPDM estimator restricts the standard DM matrix to a set of extrapolation equations that estimates the function values at the ghost points. This adjustment is analogous to the classical ghost point method in a finite-difference scheme for solving PDEs on flat domains. As opposed to the classical DM, which diverges near the boundary, the proposed GPDM estimator converges pointwise even near the boundary. Applying the consistent GPDM estimator to solve well-posed elliptic PDEs with classical boundary conditions (Dirichlet, Neumann, and Robin), we establish the convergence of the approximate solution under appropriate smoothness assumptions. We numerically validate the proposed mesh-free PDE solver on various problems defined on simple submanifolds embedded in Euclidean spaces as well as on an unknown manifold. Numerically, we also found that the GPDM is more accurate compared to DM in solving elliptic eigenvalue problems on bounded smooth manifolds. © 2021 Wiley Periodicals LLC.     

RKDG methods with WENO type limiters and conservative interfacial procedure for one-dimensional compressible multi-medium flow simulations

In this paper, we continue on studying the Runge-Kutta discontinuous Galerkin (RKDG) methods to solve compressible multi-medium flow with conservative treatment of the moving material interface. Comparing with the paper by J. Qiu, T.G. Liu and B.C. Khoo [J. Comput. Phys. 222 (2007) 353-373], we adopt the HLLC flux instead of Lax-Friedrichs numerical flux, the finite volume weighted essentially nonoscillatory (WENO) and Hermite WENO (HWENO) reconstructions as limiter instead of TVB limiter for RKDG. The HLLC flux is based on the approximate Riemann solver with little numerical viscosity and can resolve the contact discontinuity and shear wave very well. For limiter procedure, first we use the KXRCF indicator to identify the troubled cell, then apply WENO or HWENO method to reconstruct the polynomial in the troubled cell, while maintaining the cell average. This limiter procedure is more accurate and less problem dependent than the TVB limiter. Numerical results in one dimension for multi-medium flows such as gas-gas and gas-water are provided to illustrate the capability of these procedures.     

The biobjective undirected two-commodity minimum cost flow problem

We address the two-commodity minimum cost flow problem considering two objectives. We show that the biobjective undirected two-commodity minimum cost flow problem can be split into two standard biobjective minimum cost flow problems using the change of variables approach. This technique allows us to develop a method that finds all the efficient extreme points in the objective space for the two-commodity problem solving two biobjective minimum cost flow problems. In other words, we generalize the Hu's theorem for the biobjective undirected two-commodity minimum cost flow problem. In addition, we develop a parametric network simplex method to solve the biobjective problem.     

A Finite Volume Method Preserving Maximum Principle for the Conjugate Heat Transfer Problems with General Interface Conditions

In this paper, we present a unified finite volume method preserving discrete maximum principle (DMP) for the conjugate heat transfer problems with general interface conditions. We prove the existence of the numerical solution and the DMP-preserving property. Numerical experiments show that the nonlinear iteration numbers of the scheme in [24] increase rapidly when the interfacial coefficients decrease to zero. In contrast, the nonlinear iteration numbers of the unified scheme do not increase when the interfacial coefficients decrease to zero, which reveals that the unified scheme is more robust than the scheme in [24]. The accuracy and DMP-preserving property of the scheme are also veried in the numerical experiments.     

<Emphasis Type="Italic">ε</Emphasis>-Uniform error estimate of hybrid numerical scheme for singularly perturbed parabolic problems with nterior layers

This article is devoted to the study of a hybrid numerical scheme for a class of singularly perturbed parabolic convection-diffusion problems with discontinuous convection coefficients. In general, the solutions of this class of problems possess strong interior layers. To solve these problems, we discretize the time derivative by the backward-Euler method and the spatial derivatives by a hybrid finite difference scheme (a proper combination of the midpoint upwind scheme in the outer regions and the classical central difference scheme in the interior layer regions) on a layer resolving piecewise-uniform Shishkin mesh. It is proved that the method converges uniformly in the discrete supremum norm with almost second-order spatial accuracy. Moreover, an optimal order of convergence (up to a logarithmic factor) is obtained inside the layer regions. Extensive numerical experiments are conducted to support the theoretical results and also, to demonstrate the accuracy of this method.
