Application of the least-squares spectral element method using Chebyshev polynomials to solve the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations

In this paper the extension of the Legendre least-squares spectral element formulation to Chebyshev polynomials will be explained. The new method will be applied to the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations and numerical results, obtained for the lid-driven cavity flow at Reynolds numbers varying between 1000 and 7500, will be compared with the commonly used benchmark results. The new results reveal that the least-squares spectral element formulations based on the Legendre and Chebyshev Gauss-Lobatto Lagrange interpolating polynomials are equally accurate.     

LEGENDRE SPECTRAL-FINITE ELEMENT METHOD FOR THE THREE-DIMENSIONAL UNSTEADY NAVIER-STOKES EQUATION

This paper is devoted to the mixed Legendre spectral-finite element approximation of the three-dimensional, non-periodic, unsteady Navier-Stokes equations. A class of fully discrete schemes are constructed with artificial compression. The generalized stability and convergence are proved strictly on the assumption that the two-dimensional inf-sup condition of the finite element approximation is satisfied.

Simple finite element method in vorticity formulation for incompressible flows

A very simple and efficient finite element method is introduced for two and three dimensional viscous incompressible flows using the vorticity formulation. This method relies on recasting the traditional finite element method in the spirit of the high order accurate finite difference methods introduced by the authors in another work. Optimal accuracy of arbitrary order can be achieved using standard finite element or spectral elements. The method is convectively stable and is particularly suited for moderate to high Reynolds number flows.

     

Stability of the linear inequality method for rational Chebyshev approximation

The linear inequality method is an algorithm for discrete Chebyshev approximation by generalized rationals. Stability of the method with respect to uniform convergence is studied. Analytically, the method appears superior to all others in reliability.     

Novel weak form quadrature element method with expanded Chebyshev nodes

Based on the principle of minimum potential energy and the differential quadrature rule, novel weak form quadrature element method is proposed. Different from the existing ones, expanded Chebyshev grid points are used as the element nodes. A simple but general way is proposed to compute the strains at the integration points explicitly by using the differential quadrature rule. For illustration and verification, quadrature bar and beam elements are established. Several examples are given. Numerical results indicate that the proposed quadrature element method allows a longer time step as compared to elements with other nodes and is an accurate and efficient method for structural analysis.     

The use of Chebyshev Polynomials in the space-time least-squares spectral element method

Chebyshev polynomials of the first kind are employed in a space-time least-squares spectral element formulation applied to linear and nonlinear hyperbolic scalar equations. No stabilization techniques are required to render a stable, high order accurate scheme. In parts of the domain where the underlying exact solution is smooth, the scheme exhibits exponential convergence with polynomial enrichment, whereas in parts of the domain where the underlying exact solution contains discontinuities the solution displays a Gibbs-like behavior. An edge detection method is employed to determine the position of the discontinuity. Piecewise reconstruction of the numerical solution retrieves a monotone solution. Numerical results will be given in which the capabilities of the space-time formulation to capture discontinuities will be demonstrated.

A new Chebyshev polynomial approximation for solving delay differential equations

The purpose of this study is to give a Chebyshev polynomial approximation for the solution of mth-order linear delay differential equations with variable coefficients under the mixed conditions. For this purpose, a new Chebyshev collocation method is introduced. This method is based on taking the truncated Chebyshev expansion of the function in the delay differential equations. Hence, the resulting matrix equation can be solved, and the unknown Chebyshev coefficients can be found approximately. In addition, examples that illustrate the pertinent features of the method are presented, and the results of this investigation are discussed.     

Chebyshev tau matrix method for Poisson-type equations in irregular domain

In this paper, a new meshless method, Chebyshev tau matrix method (CTMM) is researched. The matrix representations for the differentiation and multiplication of Chebyshev expansions make CTMM easy to implement. Problems with curve boundary can be efficiently treated by CTMM. Poisson-type problems, including standard Poisson problems, Helmholtz problems, problems with variable coefficients and nonlinear problems are computed. Some numerical experiments are implemented to verify the efficiency of CTMM, and numerical results are in good agreement with the analytical one. It appears that CTMM is very effective for Poisson-type problems in irregular domains.

Reduced-order extrapolation spectral-finite difference scheme based on POD method and error estimation for three-dimensional parabolic equation

In this study, a classical spectral-finite difference scheme (SFDS) for the three-dimensional (3D) parabolic equation is reduced by using proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) and singular value decomposition (SVD). First, the 3D parabolic equation is discretized in spatial variables by using spectral collocation method and the discrete scheme is transformed into matrix formulation by tensor product. Second, the classical SFDS is obtained by difference discretization in time-direction. The ensemble of data are comprised with the first few transient solutions of the classical SFDS for the 3D parabolic equation and the POD bases of ensemble of data are generated by using POD technique and SVD. The unknown quantities of the classical SFDS are replaced with the linear combination of POD bases and a reducedorder extrapolation SFDS with lower dimensions and sufficiently high accuracy for the 3D parabolic equation is established. Third, the error estimates between the classical SFDS solutions and the reduced-order extrapolation SFDS solutions and the implementation for solving the reduced-order extrapolation SFDS are provided. Finally, a numerical example shows that the errors of numerical computations are consistent with the theoretical results. Moreover, it is shown that the reduced-order extrapolation SFDS is effective and feasible to find the numerical solutions for the 3D parabolic equation.

The aim of this article is to present an analytical approximation solution for linear and nonlinear multi-order fractional differential equations (FDEs) by extending the application of the shifted Chebyshev operational matrix. For this purpose, we convert FDE into a counterpart system and then using proposed method to solve the resultant system. Our results in solving four different linear and nonlinear FDE, confirm the accuracy of proposed method.

Abstract. This paper studies the finite element method for some nonlinear hyperbolic partial differential equations with memory and dampling terms. A Crank-Nicolson approximation for this kind of equations is presented. By using the elliptic Ritz Volterra projection,the analysis of the error estimates for the finite element numerical solutions and the optimal H1-norm error estimate are demonstrated.     

The Chebyshev Hyperplane Optimization Problem

We consider the following problem. Given a finite set of pointsy ^j in we want to determine a hyperplane H such that the maximum Euclidean distance betweenH and the pointsy ^j is minimized. This problem(CHOP) is a non-convex optimization problem with a special structure. Forexample, all local minima can be shown to be strongly unique. We present agenericity analysis of the problem. Two different global optimizationapproaches are considered for solving (CHOP). The first is a Lipschitzoptimization method; the other a cutting plane method for concaveoptimization. The local structure of the problem is elucidated by analysingthe relation between (CHOP) and certain associated linear optimizationproblems. We report on numerical experiments.     

Lipschitz continuity of the best approximation operator in vector-valued Chebyshev approximation

When G is a finite dimensional Haar subspace of C(X,R^k), the vector-valued continuous functions (including complex-valued functions when k is 2) from a finite set X to Euclidean k-dimensional space, it is well-known that at any function f in C(X,R^k) the best approximation operator satisfies the strong unicity condition of order 2 and a Lipschitz (Hőlder) condition of order . This note shows that in fact the best approximation operator satisfies the usual Lipschitz condition of order 1.     

Numerical solution of hyperbolic telegraph equation using the Chebyshev tau method

In this article we propose a numerical scheme to solve the one‐dimensional hyperbolic telegraph equation. The method consists of expanding the required approximate solution as the elements of shifted Chebyshev polynomials. Using the operational matrices of integral and derivative, we reduce the problem to a set of linear algebraic equations. Some numerical examples are included to demonstrate the validity and applicability of the technique. The method is easy to implement and produces very accurate results. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
