Local Heaviside‐weighted LRPIM meshless method and its application to two‐dimensional potential flows

In this paper, the local radial point interpolation meshless method (LRPIM) is used for the analysis of two‐dimensional potential flows, based on a local‐weighted residual method with the Heaviside step function as the weighting function over a local subdomain. Trial functions are constructed using radial basis functions. The present method is a truly meshless method based only on a number of randomly located nodes. Integration over the subdomains requires only a simple integration cell to obtain the solution. No element matrix assembly is required and no special treatment is needed to impose the essential boundary conditions. The novelty of the paper is the use of a local Heaviside weight function in the LRPIM, which does not need local domain integration and integrations only on the boundary of the local domains are needed. Effects of the sizes of local subdomain and interpolation domain on the performance of the present method are investigated. The behavior of shape parameters of multiquadrics has been systematically studied. Two numerical tests in groundwater and fluid flows are presented and compared with closed‐form solutions and finite element method. The results show that the use of a local Heaviside weight function in the LRPIM is highly accurate and possesses no numerical difficulties. Copyright © 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

A combined Filon/asymptotic quadrature method for highly oscillatory problems

A crossing between the asymptotic expansion of an oscillatory integral and Filon-type methods is obtained by applying a Filon-type method to the error term in the asymptotic expansion, which is in itself an oscillatory integral. The efficiency of the approach is investigated through analysis and numerical experiments, revealing a method which in many cases performs better than the Filon-type method. It is shown that considerable savings in terms of the required number of potentially expensive moments can be expected. The case of multivariate oscillatory integrals is discussed briefly.

On the problem of crack system with an elliptic hole

The problem of cracks with an elliptic hole in an infinite plane is investigated. By introducing the fictitious loads on the hole edge and using the Muskhelishvili method, the problem is reduced to solving a system of mixed-type integral equations in which some are Fredholm equations but others Cauchy-type singular ones. A numerical method is suggested and can be used for the treatment of other similar equations. The numerical results for some typical examples are given, showing that the method is really effective.     

Quadrature methods for highly oscillatory linear and nonlinear systems of ordinary differential equations: part I

This work presents methods of efficient numerical approximation for linear and nonlinear systems of highly oscillatory ordinary differential equations. We show how an appropriate choice of quadrature rule improves the accuracy of approximation as the frequency of oscillation grows. We present asymptotic and Filon-type methods to solve highly oscillatory linear systems of ODEs, and WRF method, representing a special combination of Filon-type methods and waveform relaxation methods, for nonlinear systems. Numerical examples support this paper. Dedicated to the memory of Rudolf Khanamiryan. AMS subject classification (2000)  65L05, 34E05, 34C15

The best quadrature formula based on Hermite information for the class KW~2[a,b]

The best quadrature formula has been found in the following sense:for afunction whose norm of the second derivative is bounded by a given constant and thebest quadrature formula for the approximate evaluation of integration of that function canminimize the worst possible error if the values of the function and its derivative at certainnodes are known.The best interpolation formula used to get the quadrature formula aboveis also found.Moreover,we compare the best quadrature formula with the open compoundcorrected trapezoidal formula by theoretical analysis and stochastic experiments.     

A quadrature finite element Galerkin scheme for a biharmonic problem on a rectangular polygon

A quadrature Galerkin scheme with the Bogner–Fox–Schmit element for a biharmonic problem on a rectangular polygon is analyzed for existence, uniqueness, and convergence of the discrete solution. It is known that a product Gaussian quadrature with at least three‐points is required to guarantee optimal order convergence in Sobolev norms. In this article, optimal order error estimates are proved for a scheme based on the product two‐point Gaussian quadrature by establishing a relation with an underdetermined orthogonal spline collocation scheme. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Numerical treatment of retarded boundary integral equations by sparse panel clustering

Stefan Sauter Institute for Mathematics, University of Zürich, Winterthurerstrasse 190, CH-8057 Zürich, Switzerland ^{We consider the wave equation in a boundary integral formulation.The discretization in time is done by using convolution quadraturetechniques and a Galerkin boundary element method for the spatialdiscretization. In a previous paper, we have introduced a sparseapproximation of the system matrix by cut-off, in order to reducethe storage costs. In this paper, we extend this approach byintroducing a panel clustering method to further reduce thesecosts.}
