▼ Understanding the propagation of waves using computer models is important for several applications. Major challenges for developing efficient wave propagation computer models include incorporating heterogeneous and unbounded wave propagation media, and
high-frequency data. Such models lead to very large and poorly conditioned indefinite linear systems. The main focus of this thesis is to address these challenges through several mathematical and
high-performance computing techniques. Our novel algorithms include developing and implementing unbounded heterogeneous media models using a hybrid of finite element and boundary element methods (FEM/BEMs). For incorporating heterogeneous media,
high-frequency input data, and hybrid models, large scale simulations are needed in conjunction with iterative methods for indefinite systems. We develop efficient computer models through innovative preconditioned iterative
high-
order FEMs. Our implementation includes multigrid and domain decomposition algorithms, and multiple- and
high-frequency simulations in two- and three-dimensional heterogeneous media with non-smooth and curved boundaries. Indefiniteness is a major computational bottleneck for wave propagation models that have been investigated for several decades. In addition to our efficient methods for the standard indefinite systems, we develop, analyze, and implement a new class of sign-definite
high-
order preconditioned wave propagation computer models. Our sign-definite iterative models require a small number of iterations which is independent of the frequency of the wave propagation. We demonstrate our many novel algorithms developed in this thesis using
high-performance parallel computing implementations.

▼ This thesis develops a study for the frequency warping introduced by time-domain methods. The work in this study focuses first on the time-domain methods used in the classical SPICE engine, that is the Backward Euler, the Trapezoidal Rule and the Gear's methods. Next, the thesis considers the newly developed high-order method based on the Obreshkov formula. This latter method was proved to have the A-stability and L-stability properties, and is therefore robust in circuit simulation. However, to the best of the author's knowledge, a mathematical study for the frequency warping introduced by this method has not been developed yet.
The thesis therefore develops the mathematical derivation for the frequency warping of the Obreshkov-based method. The derivations produced reveal that those methods introduce much smaller warping errors than the traditional methods used by SPICE. In order to take advantage of the small warping error, the thesis develops a shooting method framework based on the Obreshkov-based method to compute the steady-state response of nonlinear circuits excited by periodical sources. The new method demonstrates that the steady-state response can be constructed with much smaller number of time points than what is typically required by the classical methods.

▼ Discontinuous Galerkin methods form a class of numerical methods to find a solution of partial differential equations by combining features of finite element and finite volume methods. Methods are defined using a weak form of a particular model problem, allowing for discontinuities in the discrete trial and test spaces. Using a discontinuous discrete space mesh provides proper flexibility and a compact discretisation pattern, allowing a multidomain and multiphysics simulation. Discontinuous Galerkin methods with a higher approximation polynomial order, the socalled p-version, performs better in terms of convergence rate, compared with the low order h-version with smaller element sizes and bigger mesh. However, the condition number of the Galerkin system grows subsequently. This causes surge in the amount of required storage, computational complexity and in the time required for computation. We use the following three approaches to keep the advantages and eliminate the disadvantages. The first approach will be a specific choice of basis functions which we call C1 polynomials. These ensure that the majority of integrals over the edge of the mesh elements disappears. This reduces the total number of non-zero elements in the resulting system. This decreases the computational complexity without loss in precision. This approach does not affect the number of iterations required by chosen Conjugate Gradients method when compared to the other choice of basis functions. It actually decreases the total number of algebraic operations performed. The second approach is the introduction of suitable preconditioners. In our case, the Additive two-layer Schwarz method, developed in [4], for the iterative Conjugate Gradients method is considered. This directly affects the spectral condition number of the system matrix and decreases the number of iterations required for the computation. This approach, however, increases the total number of algebraic operations and might require more operational time. To tackle the rise in the number of algebraic operations, we introduced a modified Additive two-layer non-overlapping Schwarz method with a Multigrid process. This using a fixed low-order approximation polynomial degree on a coarse grid. We show that this approach is spectrally equivalent to the first preconditioner, and requires less time for computation. The third approach is a development of an efficient mathematical framework for distributed data structure. This allows a high performance, massively parallel, implementation of the discontinuous Galerkin method. We demonstrate that it is possible to exploit properties of the system matrix and C1 polynomials as basis functions to optimize the parallel structures. The previously mentioned parallel data structure allows us to parallelize at the same time both the matrix-vector multiplication routines for the Conjugate Gradients method, as well as the preconditioner routines on the solver level. This minimizes the transfer ratio amongst the distributed system. Finally, we combined all three…

▼ High-
order methods have the potential to achieve higher accuracy at lower cost than lower
order methods. This potential has been demonstrated conclusively for smooth problems in the 1st International Workshop on
High-
Order Methods. For non-smooth problems, solution based hp-adaptations offer the best promise. Adjoint-based adaptive methods have the capability of dynamically distributing computing resources to areas which are important for predicting engineering performance parameters, such as lift or drag. This thesis presents a robust and efficient adjoint-based adaptive
high-
order differential formulation for the compressible Navier-Stokes equations, which can rapidly determine an accurate estimate of an engineering output within a prescribed error threshold. The flux reconstruction (FR) or the correction procedure via reconstruction (CPR)
method used in this work is a
high-
order differential formulation. We develop a parallel adjoint-based adaptive CPR solver which can work with any element-based error estimate and handle arbitrary discretization orders for mixed elements. First, a dual-consistent discrete form of the CPR
method is derived. Then, an efficient and accurate adjoint-based error estimation
method for the CPR
method is developed and its accuracy and effectiveness are verified for the linear and non-linear partial differential equations (PDE). For anisotropic h-adaptations, we use a local output error sampling procedure to find the optimal refinement option. The current
method has been applied to aerodynamic problems. Numerical tests show that significant savings in the number of DOFs can be achieved through the adjoint-based adaptation.

▼ The physical modeling and simulation of nondestructive evaluation (NDE) measurements has a major role in the advancement of NDE and structural health monitoring (SHM). In ultrasonic NDE (UNDE) simulations, evaluating the scattering of ultrasound by defects is a computationally-intensive process. Many UNDE system models treat the scattering process using exact analytical methods or high-frequency approximations such as the Kirchhoff approximation (KA) to make the simulation effort tractable. These methods naturally have a limited scope. This thesis aims to supplement the existing scattering models with fast and memory-efficient full-wave models that are based on the boundary element method (BEM).
For computational efficiency, such full-wave models should be applied only to those problems wherein the existing approximation methods are not suitable. Therefore, the adequacy of different scattering models for representing various test scenarios has to be studied. Although analyzing scattering models by themselves is helpful, their true adequacy is revealed only when they are combined with models of other elements of the NDE system, and the resulting predictions are evaluated against measurements. Very few comprehensive studies of this nature exist, particularly for full-wave scattering models. To fill this gap, two different scattering models – the KA and a boundary-element method – are integrated into a UNDE system model in this work, and their predictions for standard measurement outputs are compared with experimental data for various benchmark problems. This quantitative comparison serves as a guideline for selecting between the KA and full-wave scattering models for performing UNDE simulations. In accordance with theoretical expectations, the KA is shown to be inappropriate for modeling penetrable (inclusion-type) defects and non-specular scattering, such as diffraction from thin cracks above certain angles of incidence.
A key challenge to the use of full-wave scattering methods in UNDE system models is the high computational cost incurred during simulations. Whereas the development of fast finite element methods (FEM) has inspired various applications of the FEM for ultrasound modeling in 3D heterogeneous and anisotropic media, very few applications of the BEM exist despite the progress in accelerated BEMs for elastodynamics. The BEM is highly efficient for modeling scattering from arbitrary shaped 3D defects in homogeneous isotropic media due to a reduction in the dimensionality of the scattering problem, and this potential has not been exploited for UNDE. Therefore, building on recent developments, this work proposes a fast and memory-efficient implementation of the BEM for elastic-wave scattering in UNDE applications.
This method features three crucial elements that provide robustness and fast convergence. They include the use of (1) high-order discretization methods for fast convergence, (2) the combined-field integral equation (CFIE) formulation for overcoming the fictitious eigenfrequency problem, and (3) the…

▼ Currently, existing devices for extracting electrical power from ocean waves all suffer from problems with low efficiency due to a lack of information about the incoming waves in advance. The complex dynamic nonlinear characteristics of the ocean make the prediction of these incoming waves a great challenge. This paper aims to investigate a deterministic short-term wave-by-wave prediction system, that can accurately predict the wave height and timing of the incoming waves, based on measurements from a submerged pressure sensor. The complete prediction process contains three steps, namely reconstruction, assimilation, and prediction. A nonlinear Weakly Dispersive Reconstruction method (WDM) is firstly employed to accurately calculate the surface elevation from the measured pressures. Afterwards, a variational assimilation method is used to convert the time series surface elevation to a spatial wavefield, to obtain initial conditions for the prediction. Lastly, a High Order Spectral Method (HOSM) deterministically predicts the evolution of the 2D irregular wavefield based on the acquired initial conditions. To verify the performance of this proposed prediction system, tests were conducted with data from irregular sea states with varying wave parameters, generated by simulations as well as model experiments in the controlled environment of a wave tank. The results show that the surface elevation can be predicted within 5% from the reference, for a future period of about 10 seconds for wavefields commonly experienced by a wave energy converter. Based on the results, a prediction is possible, but the accuracy heavily depends on the current sea state and the chosen prediction distance.The results have been compared against similar tests made using radar data and proven to be a viable alternative for certain sea states. In conclusion, pressure measurements, as a mean to sample an ocean wavefield, is shown to be a good option when combined with nonlinear reconstruction and prediction methods to assist the power harvesting capabilities of a wave energy converter.
Nuvarande enheter för att extrahera elektrisk energi från havsvågor lider av stora problem med låg effektivitet på grund av brist på information om de inkommande vågorna. Det komplexa ickelinjära dynamiska beteendet hos havsvågor gör förutsägelsen av dem till en stor utmaning. Det här arbetet syftar till att undersöka ett deterministiskt kortsiktigt system för att förutspå våg för våg, som noggrant kan förutspå våghöjd och tidpunkt för de inkommande vågorna, baserat på mätdata från en dränkbar trycksensor. Den kompletta förutsägelseprocessen innehåller tre steg, rekonstruktion, assimilering och förutsägelse. En ickelinjär weakly dispersive reconstruction method används först för att med hög noggrannhet beräkna ythöjningen från det uppmätta trycket. Därefter, används en variational assimilation method för att konvertera en tidsserie av ythöjningen till ett rumsligt vågfält, för att erhålla initialvillkor för förutsägelsen. Slutligen används en High Order…

▼ This thesis tells the story of two new members of a new generation of discontinuous Galerkin (DG)
methods. Although DG, as a spatial discretization, has exhibited unparalleled success in handling advection-
dominated problems on unstructured grids, DG's development in diffusion and time-marching schemes has
lagged far behind in comparison. The first part of this thesis contributes to a newly introduced diffusion
scheme, and the second part to an arbitrarily
high-
order explicit time-marching scheme.
Interface-centered recovery-based DG (RDG) was first introduced by Van Leer and Nomura (2005) as
a new DG discretization for diffusion. The recovery concept is attractive because it is easily understood
and can be extended beyond diffusion. The idea is to recover a smooth solution across a cell interface that
shares all moments with the discontinuous solutions in the two cells adjacent to that interface. RDG proves
to be a scheme of fine pedigree: its
order of accuracy, 3p + 1 for odd p (p is the
order of the solution
polynomial), and 3p + 2 for even p, is unmatched on a Cartesian grid by any existing
method for diffusion.
For unstructured grids, the
order of accuracy is reduced to the standard p+1, but RDG still allows of much
larger time steps due to smaller eigenvalues. The extension to nonlinear problems with cross-derivative terms
and two-dimensional structured and unstructured grids is described. Numerical tests for a range of diffusion
equations, including Navier-Stokes, conrm the
high-
order accuracy of RDG.
Van Leer (1977) coupled spatial and temporal operators to produce an exact shift in the solution for
advection at a Courant-Friedrich-Lewy (CFL) number of unity. Huynh (2005) successfully implemented this
concept in the "moment scheme" (p = 1) for the Euler equations. We extend this
method to arbitrarily
high
order, and incorporate RDG for handling diffusion. The
method is currently called Hancock-Huynh discon-
tinuous Galerkin (HH-DG). We have tested it on Euler problems and linear advection-diffusion problems.

This report presents a numerical method which can be used to solve the advection equation (∂ɸ/∂t) + (∂[u(x,t)ɸ]/∂x) = S(x,t) where: ɸ ≣ concentration field u(x,t) ≣ velocity field S(x,t) ≣ source term Central to this method are the concept of particle path and the Eulerian interpretation of the time rate of change of the concentration field ɸ. In actual comparison tests for particular cases with known solutions this method proved to be at least two orders of magnitude more accurate than the usual one sided upwind finite difference method.

▼ The development of the high-order accuracy spectral difference (SD) method on hexahedral mesh and its applications in aeroacoustic and aerodynamic problems are carried out in this work. Two absorbing boundary conditions, the absorbing sponge zone and the perfectly matched layer, are developed and implemented for the SD method discretizing the Euler and Navier-Stokes equations on unstructured grids. The performance of both boundary conditions is evaluated and compared with the characteristic boundary condition for a variety of benchmark problems including vortex and acoustic wave propagations. The applications of the perfectly matched layer technique in the numerical simulations of unsteady problems with complex geometries are also presented to demonstrate its capability.
Numerical simulations of the low-Reynolds number (Re= 〖10〗4 ~ 〖10〗5 ) flows over a SD7003 airfoil at moderate incidences (<10y) are performed. A low-frequency convective instability is observed to dominate the spectrum near the leading edge and be responsible for the growth of the disturbance in the attached boundary layer. The characteristic frequency, the growth rate and the wave shape are investigated based on the numerical results. The growth of the low-frequency instability is not in agreement with parallel flow stability theory, nor with leading edge receptivity theory. And it has a higher growth rate than the Tollmien-Schlichting (T-S) wave. The effects of the angle-of-attack (AoA), the Reynolds number and the airfoil geometry on the low-frequency instability are investigated and discussed.
The mechanisms in the breakdown process are investigated and discussed. it is observed that the breakdown of the shedding vortices starts at approximately the location with the maximum negative streamwise flow velocity. And the reverse flow in the separation region directly triggers the generation of three dimensional disturbances and the streamwise vorticities. In addition, the secondary instability which initiates the breakdown process differs in cases at different AOAs. The elliptic and hyperbolic instabilities observed in bluff-body wakes are found to occur in the breakdown process of current cases. Furthermore, the sequence of breakdown states at various incidences is found to be similar to that of the bluff-body wakes at various Reynolds numbers.
A numerical investigation of passive LSB control techniques using roughness bumps on a low-Reynolds number wing is conducted as a further study. The previous case at Re=6y〖10〗4 and AoA=4y is used as the baseline (uncontrolled) case. In the controlled cases, roughness bumps are strategically placed near the leading edge of the wing for the purpose of improving aerodynamic performance in terms of the lift to drag ratio. The location, bump size, the number of bumps and the AoA are varied to study the effects. The pressure drag forces in the controlled cases are found to be reduced significantly when the LSB are reduced or avoided, resulting in much improved lift over drag ratio.

▼ Les solveurs de calcul en mécanique des fluides numérique (solveurs CFD) ont atteint leur maturité en termes de précision et d'efficacité de calcul. Toutefois, des progrès restent à faire pour les écoulements instationnaires surtout lorsqu'ils sont régis par de grandes structures cohérentes. Pour ces écoulements, les solveurs CFD actuels n'apportent pas de solutions assez précises à moins d'utiliser des maillages très fins. De plus, la haute précision est une caractéristique cruciale pour l'application des stratégies avancées de simulation de turbulence, comme la Simulation des Grandes Echelles (LES). Afin d'appliquer les méthodes d'ordre élevé pour les écoulements instationnaires complexes plusieurs points doivent être abordés dont la robustesse numérique et la capacité à gérer des géométries complexes.Dans cette thèse, nous étudions une famille d'approximations compactes qui offrent une grande précision non pour chaque dérivée spatiale traitée séparement mais pour le résidu r complet, c'est à dire la somme de tous les termes des équations considérées. Pour des problèmes stationnaires résolus par avancement temporelle, r est le résidu à l'état stationnaire ne comprenant que des dérivées spatiales; pour des problèmes instationnaires r comprend également la dérivée temporelle. Ce type de schémas sont appelés schémas Compacts Basés sur le Résidu (RBC). Plus précisément, nous développons des schémas RBC d'ordre élevé pour des écoulements instationnaires compressibles, et menons une étude approfondie de leurs propriétés de dissipation. Nous analysons ensuite les erreurs de dissipation et la dispersion introduites par les schémas RBC afin de quantifier leur capacité à résoudre une longueur d'onde donnée en utilisant un nombre minimal de points de maillage. Les capacités de la dissipation de RBC à drainer seulement l'énergie aux petites échelles sous-résolues sont également examinées en vue de l'application des schémas RBC pour des simulations LES implicites (ILES). Enfin, les schémas RBC sont étendus à la formulation de type volumes finis (FV) afin de gérer des géométries complexes. Une formulation FV des schémas RBC d'ordre trois préservant une précision d'ordre élevé sur des maillages irréguliers est présentée et analysée. Des applications numériques, dont la simulation d'écoulements instationnaires complexes de turbomachines régis par les équations de Navier-Stokes moyennées et des simulations ILES d'écoulements turbulents dominés par des structures cohérentes dynamiques ou en décroissance, confirment les résultats théoriques.
Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) solvers have reached maturity in terms of solution accuracy as well as computational efficiency. However, progress remains to be done for unsteady flows especially when governed by large, coherent structures. For these flows, current CFD solvers do not provide accurate solutions unless very fine mesh are used. Moreover, high-accuracy is a crucial feature for the application of advanced turbulence simulation strategies, like Large Eddy Simulation (LES). In…

▼ In this dissertation, Richardson extrapolation and other computational techniques are used to develop a series of high accuracy high efficiency solution techniques for solving partial differential equations (PDEs).
A Richardson extrapolation-based sixth-order method with multiple coarse grid (MCG) updating strategy is developed for 2D and 3D steady-state equations on uniform grids. Richardson extrapolation is applied to explicitly obtain a sixth-order solution on the coarse grid from two fourth-order solutions with different related scale grids. The MCG updating strategy directly computes a sixth-order solution on the fine grid by using various combinations of multiple coarse grids. A multiscale multigrid (MSMG) method is used to solve the linear systems resulting from fourth-order compact (FOC) discretizations. Numerical investigations show that the proposed methods compute high accuracy solutions and have better computational efficiency and scalability than the existing Richardson extrapolation-based sixth order method with iterative operator based interpolation.
Completed Richardson extrapolation is explored to compute sixth-order solutions on the entire fine grid. The correction between the fourth-order solution and the extrapolated sixth-order solution rather than the extrapolated sixth-order solution is involved in the interpolation process to compute sixth-order solutions for all fine grid points. The completed Richardson extrapolation does not involve significant computational cost, thus it can reach high accuracy and high efficiency goals at the same time.
There are three different techniques worked with Richardson extrapolation for computing fine grid sixth-order solutions, which are the iterative operator based interpolation, the MCG updating strategy and the completed Richardson extrapolation. In order to compare the accuracy of these Richardson extrapolation-based sixth-order methods, truncation error analysis is conducted on solving a 2D Poisson equation. Numerical comparisons are also carried out to verify the theoretical analysis.
Richardson extrapolation-based high accuracy high efficiency computation is extended to solve unsteady-state equations. A higher-order alternating direction implicit (ADI) method with completed Richardson extrapolation is developed for solving unsteady 2D convection-diffusion equations. The completed Richardson extrapolation is used to improve the accuracy of the solution obtained from a high-order ADI method in spatial and temporal domains simultaneously. Stability analysis is given to show the effects of Richardson extrapolation on stable numerical solutions from the underlying ADI method.

▼ NASA’s 2030 CFD Vision calls for the development of accurate and efficient scale-resolving simulations for turbulent flow, such as large eddy simulation (LES) and direct numerical simulation (DNS). This is primarily because the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) approach has failed to predict vortex-dominated flow involving large flow separations, e.g., flow through a jet engine or over aircraft near the edge of the flight envelope, i.e., during take-off and landing at
high angles of attack. Although the DNS approach resolves all turbulence scales, it is too expensive in the foreseeable future for real world flow problems because of the disparate length and time scales in the flow. LES resolves the energetic large scales while modeling the smaller scales, so it provides a good compromise between accuracy and cost. As a result, LES is widely considered to be the
method of choice for next generation CFD design tool. The major obstacle for LES is its considerable computational cost since unsteady 3D simulations need to be performed to obtain the mean flow quantities such as the drag and lift coefficients. In
order to resolve the dominant scales in a turbulent flow, numerical methods used for LES should have low dissipation and dispersion errors. This means standard second
order finite-volume methods are usually not accurate or efficient enough for LES applications.
High-
order methods (
order of accuracy 2) have demonstrated their potential for LES and DNS in the past decade because of their low embedded numerical dissipation and dispersion errors. In the present study, we develop and demonstrate a recently developed
high-
order method, called flux reconstruction (FR) or correction procedure via reconstruction (CPR), for industrial LES. A major advantage of the FR/CPR
method is its capability to handle unstructured mixed meshes, and its compactness and scalability, which is particularly desired on modern super-computers. We therefore address the following major pacing items in industrial LES in the present study:
High-
order methods Geometric flexibility Efficient time integration Efficient implementation on modern super computers Demonstration for real world applications

▼ No contexto de Dinâmica de Fluidos Computacional, métodos de simulação de objetos imersos em Malhas Cartesianas têm se mostrado vantajosos tanto em termos de Custo Computacional quanto em termos de precisão numérica. Entretanto, a representação física de objetos imersos nesses domínios computacionais impõe a perda de validade dos esquemas de Diferenças Finitas empregados, na região das superfícies introduzidas. Este trabalho analisa um Método de Interfaces Imersas quanto ao desempenho em aplicações a esquemas de solução numérica de Alta Ordem de precisão. Através de Testes de Refinamento de Malha, é feita a apreciação da ordem de decaimento dos erros das soluções numéricas em comparação com as soluções analíticas para 2 problemas unidimensionais. O primeiro envolve a solução da Equação de Calor unidimensional sujeita a uma Condição Inicial Unitária, e o segundo relaciona-se ao cálculo das duas primeiras derivadas espaciais das funções analíticas Seno e Tangente Hiperbólica. Também é promovida uma análise de forma fragmentária do método, a fim de individualizar a contribuição dos elementos envolvidos no comportamento das soluções geradas. Os resultados obtidos indicam eventuais alterações na ordem de precisão dos esquemas de Diferenças Finitas originalmente aplicados. Esse comportamento e visto como uma dependência que o método escolhido apresenta em relação a função discretizada. Por fim, são elaboradas considerações sobre restrições de aplicabilidade do método escolhido.
In the Computational Fluid Dynamics context, methods for simulating immersed objects in Cartesian Grids have shown advantages regarding both Computational Cost and numerical precision. Nevertheless, the physical representation of immersed objects within these computational domains leads to the loss of validity of the emplyed Finite Dierence Schemes near the immersed surfaces. This work analizes a Immersed Interface Method regarding its performance in High Order Schemes applications. The error decay order for numerical solutions of two 1D problems is observed. The rst problem relates to the solution of the Heat Equation subjected to the unitary initial condition. The second relates to the computation of the rst two derivatives of analytical functions Sin and Hyperbolic Tangent. It\'s also conducted a fragmentary analysis, which is intended to identify the contribution of each element of this method to the character of the generated solution. The results indicate some eventual changes in the Order of the Finite Dierences Schemes employed. This behaviour is regarded as a dependency of this method to the nature of the discretized function. Finaly, some remarks regarding restrictions to this method\'s applicability are made.

▼ In this thesis, the boundary integral equation method (BIEM) is studied and applied to electromagnetic and elastic wave problems.
First of all, a spectral domain BIEM called the spectral domain approach is employed for full wave analysis of metal strip grating on grounded dielectric slab (MSG-GDS) and microstrips shielded with either perfect electric conductor (PEC) or perfect magnetic conductor (PMC) walls. The modal relations between these structures are revealed by exploring their symmetries. It is derived analytically and validated numerically that all the even and odd modes of the latter two (when they are mirror symmetric) find their correspondence in the modes of metal strip grating on grounded dielectric slab when the phase shift between adjacent two unit cells is 0 or π. Extension to non-symmetric case is also made. Several factors, including frequency, grating period, slab thickness and strip width, are further investigated for their impacts on the effective permittivity of the dominant mode of PEC/PMC shielded microstrips. It is found that the PMC shielded microstrip generally has a larger wave number than the PEC shielded microstrip.
Secondly, computational aspects of the layered medim doubly periodic Green's function (LMDPGF) in matrix-friendly formulation (MFF) are investigated. The MFF for doubly periodic structures in layered medium is derived, and the singularity of the periodic Green's function when the transverse wave number equals zero in this formulation is analytically extracted. A novel approach is proposed to calculate the LMDPGF, which makes delicate use of several techniques including factorization of the Green's function, generalized pencil of function (GPOF) method and high order Taylor expansion to derive the high order asymptotic expressions, which are then evaluated by newly derived fast convergent series. This approach exhibits robustness, high accuracy and fast and high order convergence; it also allows fast frequency sweep for calculating Brillouin diagram in eigenvalue problem and for normal incidence in scattering problem.
Thirdly, a high order Nyström method is developed for elastodynamic scattering that features a simple local correction scheme due to a careful choice of basis functions. A novel simple and efficient singularity subtraction scheme and a new effective near singularity subtraction scheme are proposed for performing singular and nearly singular integrals on curvilinear triangular elements. The robustness, high accuracy and high order convergence of the proposed approached are demonstrated by numerical results.
Finally, the multilevel fast multipole algorithm (MLFMA) is applied to accelerate the proposed Nyström method for solving large scale problems. A Formulation that can significantly reduce the memory requirements in MLFMA is come up with. Numerical examples in frequency domain are first given to show the accuracy and efficiency of the algorithm. By solving at multiple frequencies and performing the inverse Fourier transform, time domain results are…

▼ Classically, researchers in Computational Physics and specifically in Computational Electromagnetics have sought to find numerical solutions to complex physical problems. Several techniques have been developed to accomplish such tasks, each of which having advantages over their counterparts. Typically, each solution method has been developed separately despite having numerous commonalities with other methods. This fact motivates a unified software tool to house each solution method to avoid duplicating previous efforts. Subsequently, these solution methods can be used alone or in conjunction with one another in a straightforward manner. The aforementioned goals can be accomplished by using an Object Oriented software approach. Thus, the goal of the presented research was to incorporate a specific solution technique, an Integral Equation Nystrm method, into a general, Object Oriented software framework.

▼ The hierarchical (H)-matrix acceleration
method plays important role in electromagnetic analysis of large-scale problems. This thesis is about fast direct solution of 3-D
full-wave scattering and radiation problems with H-matrix acceleration of the
method
of moments (MoM) for the novel surface-volume-surface electric field integral equation (SVS-EFIE) and the Locally Corrected Nystrom (LCN)
method for traditional magnetic field integral equation (MFIE). Two new formulations of the SVS-EFIE are proposed. First, new SVS-EFIE formulation is developed for the scattering and radiation problems on metal-dielectric composite objects with arbitrary number of regions situated in free space. Second, new SVS-EFIE formulation is developed for scattering and radiation problems on dielectric-dielectric composite objects situated in multilayered medium. The proposed SVS-EFIE formulations introduce independent surface electric current density on the boundary of each region. Thus, in the new formulations, the scatterer regions can be meshed independently according to their local material properties. This improves the flexibility and efficiency of the proposed formulations in the analysis of both multiscale and large-scale composite structures. An H-matrix based fast direct solution strategies are proposed for acceleration of the MoM solution of the new SVS-EFIE formulations. The
method is largely insensitive to the poor conditioning of the MoM matrix equation. The required theory for applying H-matrices to the new formulations as well as the construction of the block H-matrices pertinent to MoM discretization of the composite SVS-EFIE is described in detail. Numerical validation shows that the proposed methods have a wide-range of applications and generate accurate results using only the small fraction of memory and total CPU time needed by conventional MoM solution of the SVS-EFIE.
Fast error-controlled direct solution of the traditional integral equations for scattering problems on metal objects with H-matrices is also pioneered in this work. The proposed strategy for acceleration of the higher-
order LCN
method with H-matrices exhibits O(h^p) error behavior in the fast direct solution of the scattering problems on smooth metal objects with characteristic mesh elements size h and
order of solution approximation p.

▼ This dissertation presents a step towards
high-
order methods for continuum-transition flows.
In
order to achieve maximum accuracy and efficiency for numerical methods
on a distorted mesh, it is desirable that both governing equations and corresponding
numerical methods are in some sense compact. We argue our preference for
a physical model described solely by first-
order partial differential equations called
hyperbolic-relaxation equations, and, among various numerical methods, for the discontinuous
Galerkin
method. Hyperbolic-relaxation equations can be generated as
moments of the Boltzmann equation and can describe continuum-transition flows.
Two challenging properties of hyperbolic-relaxation equations are the presence
of a stiff source term, which drives the system towards equilibrium, and the accompanying
change of eigenstructure. The first issue can be solved by an implicit
treatment of the source term. To cope with the second difficulty, we develop a
space-time discontinuous Galerkin
method, based on Huynh’s “upwind moment
scheme.” It is called the DG(1)–Hancock
method.
The DG(1)–Hancock
method for one- and two-dimensional meshes is described,
and Fourier analyses for both linear advection and linear hyperbolic-relaxation equations
are conducted. The analyses show that the DG(1)–Hancock
method is not
only accurate but efficient in terms of turnaround time in comparison to other semiand
fully discrete finite-volume and discontinuous Galerkin methods. Numerical
tests confirm the analyses, and also show the properties are preserved for nonlinear
equations; the efficiency is superior by an
order of magnitude.
Subsequently, discontinuous Galerkin and finite-volume spatial discretizations
are applied to more practical equations, in particular, to the set of 10-moment equations,
which are gas dynamics equations that include a full pressure/temperature
tensor among the flow variables. Results for flow around a micro-airfoil are compared
to experimental data and to solutions obtained with a Navier–Stokes code,
and with particle-based methods. While numerical solutions in the continuum
regime for both the 10-moment and Navier–Stokes equations are similar, clear differences
are found in the continuum-transition regime, especially near the stagnation
point, where the Navier–Stokes code, even when implemented with wall-slip, overestimates
the density.

An optimization-based method for high order gradient calculation on unstructured meshes.

(more)
▼ A new implicit and compact optimization-based
method is presented for
high order
derivative calculation for finite-volume numerical
method on unstructured meshes. Highorder
approaches to gradient calculation are often based on variants of the Least-Squares
(L-S)
method, an explicit
method that requires a stencil large enough to accommodate the
necessary variable information to calculate the derivatives. The new scheme proposed here
is applicable for an arbitrary
order of accuracy (demonstrated here up to 3rd
order), and
uses just the first level of face neighbors to compute all derivatives, thus reducing stencil
size and avoiding stiffness in the calculation matrix.
Preliminary results for a static variable field example and solution of a simple scalar
transport (advection) equation show that the proposed
method is able to deliver numerical
accuracy equivalent to (or better than) the nominal
order of accuracy for both 2nd and 3rd
order schemes in the presence of a smoothly distributed variable field (i.e., in the absence
of discontinuities).
This new Optimization-based Gradient REconstruction (herein denoted OGRE) scheme
produces, for the simple scalar transport test case, lower error and demands less computational
time (for a given level of required precision) for a 3rd
order scheme when compared
to an equivalent L-S approach on a two-dimensional framework. For three-dimensional
simulations, where the L-S scheme fails to obtain convergence without the help of limiters,
the new scheme obtains stable convergence and also produces lower error solution when
compared to a third
order MUSCL scheme.
Furthermore, spectral analysis of results from the advection equation shows that the
new scheme is better able to accurately resolve
high wave number modes, which demonstrates
its potential to better solve problems presenting a wide spectrum of wavelengths,
for example unsteady turbulent flow simulations.

▼ O estudo do transporte de partículas tem uma importância fundamental em diversas áreas de pesquisas como, por exemplo, na formação de gelo em uma aeronave pois pode afetar a sua sustentação e estabilidade. Tamanha é a preocupação com a segurança de vôo que diversos estudos têm sido realizados, resultando em códigos computacionais como o LEWICE nos Estados Unidos, TRAJICE no Reino Unido, ONERA na França e CANICE no Canadá. No Brasil, um dos estudo é feito pela EMBRAER em parceria com algumas instituições. O objetivo deste trabalho é desenvolver um algoritmo que possa ser empregado na trajetória das partículas, utilizando uma formulação euleriana que elimina a dificuldade da semeadura de partículas específica da formulação lagrangiana na determinação da fração de volume da partícula. O método empregado é dos volumes finitos em malhas não-estruturadas cuja principal chave está na reconstrução mínimos quadrados de alta ordem com restrição nos contornos. O desenvolvimento do trabalho engloba 3 etapas: definição da geometria e geração das malhas; utilização de um solver para o tratamento do escoamento do ar e obtenção do campo de velocidade; implementação e utilização do esquema numérico com reconstrução mínimos quadrados de alta ordem para simular o cálculo da fração de volume com imposição de condições limites apropriadas no contorno do corpo. Os resultados dos testes realizados mostram que o esquema numérico com reconstrução mínimos quadrados pode ser empregado na resolução de equações que apresentam uma região de descontinuidade, como é o caso da região de sombra, reduzindo a largura da banda de difusão numérica e overshoots.
The particle transport study has a fundamental importance in diverse research area like in the icing accretion on an aircraft because that can affect its sustentation and stability. The concern is so big that many researches have been carried through, resulting in computational codes like the LEWICE in the United States, TRAJICE in the United Kingdom, ONERA in France and CANICE in Canada. In Brazil, one of the study has been made by the EMBRAER with some institutes. The goal of this work is to develop an algorithm that can be used in the particles trajectory study, using an Eulerian method that eliminates the difficulty particle sowing, particular of the Lagrangian method, in the determination of the droplet fraction volume. This is made by the finite volume method on unstructured meshes whose main key is the high order reconstruction with restriction on the boundary. The development of the work involves 3 stages: geometry definition and mesh generation; using code for the treatment of the air flow and obtained flow velocity; use of the high order numerical scheme least square reconstruction to simulate the droplet fraction volume result with imposition of appropriate limit conditions in the body contour. The realized simulations shown that Least Square method can be used in problem resolution that present descontinuos region like is shadow region…

Рад електронских уређаја и система, као што су
мобилна телефонија, телевизија, рачунари, сателитски комуникациони
системи, радарски системи и многи други, базира се на
електромагнетским феноменима који су предмет изучавања теорије
електромагнетских поља. За разумевање начина рада ових система и за
њихово пројектовање потребно је извршити електромагнетску (ЕМ)
анализу. У већини случајева ЕМ анализа се спроводи применом неке од
метода нумеричке електромагнетике. Једна од најчешће коришћених
нумеричких метода за ЕМ анализу је метода момената примењена на
решавање површинских интегралних једначина. Применом ове методе
струје расподељене по граничним површима домена апроксимирају се
сумом познатих функција базиса помножених непознатим
коефицијентима, а површинске интегралне једначине трансформишу се у
систем линеарних једначина чијим се решавањем одређују ти непознати
коефицијенти. Ова метода се унапређује већ више десетина година, а
актуелни технички и технолошки трендови постављају сталне захтеве
за повећањем тачности и ефикасности ЕМ моделовања, за анализом све
већих и комплекснијих структура, које укључују све ситније детаље,
као и за проширењем опсега учестаности, идући од веома ниских до
веома високих учестаности. Повећање тачности, ефикасности и домена
примене ове методе могу се остварити 1) имплементацијом
комплекснијих елемената за прецизно моделовање геометрије проблема,
2) рачунањем елемената системске матрице са великом тачношћу, и 3)
коришћењем софистицираних функција базиса за апроксимацију струје.
Циљ ове дисертације је развој нове методе, базиране на методи
момената, за анализу аксијално симетричних металних структура
коришћењем егзактног језгра интегралне једначине електричног поља и
применом све три горе поменуте технике. За прецизно геометријско
моделовање проблема коришћени су зарубљени конуси, а струја је
иницијално апроксимирана модификованим функцијама базиса вишег
реда. Импедансни интеграли, који представљају елементе системске
матрице су, уз помоћ симетрије, редуковани са четвороструких на
троструке интеграле, при чему прве две интеграције одговарају
интегралима потенцијала. Свака од три интеграције у оквиру
импедансних интеграла показује сингуларно или квази-сингуларно
понашање у одређеним ситуацијама. У том случају се ови интеграли
неефикасно рачунају директном применом Гаус-Лежандрове интеграционе
формуле, па су за њихово рачунање предложене нове техникe
поништавања сингуларитета. Техника поништавања сингуларитета
подразумева примену погодно одабране смене којом се интегранд
трансформише у споро променљиву функцију па се интеграл затим може
ефикасно израчунати нумерички, применом Гаус-Лежандрове
интеграционе формуле. Након одабира оптималних смена осмишљене су
једноставне формуле за одређивање потребног броја тачака

▼ The use of
high-
order methods to compute turbulent flows governed by the Reynolds- averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations is an active research topic in the compu- tational fluid dynamics (CFD) community. However, it is well known that
high-
order methods for the non-smooth turbulence modeling equations are difficult to converge to the steady-state because of the numerical stiffness. The objective of this work is to de- velop a robust and efficient
high-
order discretization that can simulate turbulent flows governed by the Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes equations, which involves the de- velopment of
high-
order space discretization of robust turbulence modeling equations, the improvement of time integration strategy, and the application of effective mesh adaptation methods. In the present study, correction procedure via reconstruction (CPR)
high-
order dis- cretization is developed to solve the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equa- tions with the modified Spalart and Allmaras (SA) model. In this model, the non- dimensional length scale depends on the distance to the nearest wall. To compute the distance of each solution point in the domain to the nearest curved polynomial wall boundaries, the CPR
high-
order discretization is extended to solve the Eikonal equa- tion. On the other hand, to improve time integration strategy for the simulation of turbulent flows, the present work carried out a comparative study of several implicit time integration schemes to determine which is the most efficient, robust and general scheme. Additionally, an adjoint-based adaptive mesh refinement
method is utilized to minimize the output error. Numerical results show that, to achieve a certain level of accuracy, the adaptive CPR discretization of the RANS equations with the SA model saves orders of magnitude in terms of number of degrees of freedom comparing to the numerical results of uniform mesh refinement, when applied to the simulations of turbulent flows.

▼ Esta dissertação apresenta uma metodologia baseada no Método dos Elementos Finitos (MEF) para a modelagem de estruturas compostas laminadas do tipo viga e placa dotadas de sensores e atuadores piezoelétricos. Os conceitos fundamentais e o desenvolvimento teórico são apresentados, seguidos de simulações numéricas realizadas em ambiente MATLAB para a modelagem dessas estruturas. O elemento finito implementado é do tipo Serendipity, tem forma retangular, oito pontos nodais, onze graus de liberdade mecânicos por nó e oito graus de liberdade elétricos por interface de camada piezoelétrica. Os efeitos da temperatura são desprezados. É empregada uma Teoria Mista baseada no uso de camada equivalente única para representação do campo de deslocamentos mecânicos e em múltiplas camadas para o campo elétrico. A aproximação do campo de deslocamentos mecânicos utiliza duas teorias distintas: a Teoria da Deformação de Terceira Ordem (HSDT) e a Teoria da Deformação Cisalhante de Primeira Ordem (FSDT). As teorias em estudo são implementadas computacionalmente e confrontadas através da realização de simulações numéricas e os resultados são comparados com os disponíveis na literatura. Nestas simulações, alguns aspectos relevantes do comportamento estático e dinâmico sob vibração livre de vigas e placas retangulares dotadas de sensores e atuadores piezoelétricos são avaliados, tais como deflexão, freqüências naturais e potenciais elétricos. São discutidas as vantagens e desvantagens da utilização de cada uma dessas teorias na modelagem de estruturas inteligentes.
This Dissertation presents a methodology based on the Finite Element method for the modeling of laminated composite beams and plates containing piezoelectric sensors and actuators. The fundamental concepts and the theoretical developments are presented, followed by a number of numerical simulations performed in MATLAB environment. The finite element used is a Serendipity-type element with rectangular shape, eight nodes, eleven mechanical degrees-of-freedom per node and eight electrical degrees-of-freedom per interface of piezoelectric layer. Temperature effects are neglected. A Mixed Theory is adopted, which uses a single equivalent layer for discretization of the mechanical displacement field and a layerwise representation of the electrical field. For the approximation of the mechanical displacements, two different theories are used, namely: the Higher-order Shear Deformation Theory (HSDT) and the First-order Shear Deformation Theory (FSDT). Both theories are numerically implemented and used in a number numerical simulations whose results are available in the literature. In these simulations, some relevant aspects of the static and dynamic behavior of beams and rectangular plates containing piezoelectric sensors and actuators are appraised. The main advantages and drawbacks of the theories, as applied to the modeling of intelligent composite structures are pointed-out.

▼ L’objectif de cette thèse est l’étude numérique du piégeage de la lumière dans des cellules solaires nanostructurées. Le changement climatique est devenu une problématique majeure nécessitant une transition énergétique à court terme. Dans ce contexte, l'énergie solaire semble être une source énergétique idéale. Cette ressource est à la fois scalable à l’échelle planétaire et écologique. Afin de maximiser sa pénétration, des travaux visant à augmenter la quantité de lumière absorbée et à réduire les coûts liés à la conception des cellules sont nécessaires. Le piégeage de la lumière est une stratégie qui permet d’atteindre ces deux objectifs. Son principe consiste à utiliser des texturations nanométriques afin de focaliser la lumière dans les couches de semi-conducteur absorbantes. Dans ce travail, la méthode de Galerkine Discontinue en Domaine Temporel (DGTD) est introduite. Deux développements méthodologiques majeurs, permettant de mieux prendre en compte les caractéristiques des cellules solaires, sont présentés. Tout d'abord, l’utilisation d’un ordre d’approximation local est proposé , basé sur une stratégie de répartition particulière de l’ordre. Le deuxième développement est l’utilisation de maillage hybride mixant ses élements hexahédriques structurés et tétrahédriques non structurés. Des cas réalistes de cellules solaires issus de la littérature et de collaborations avec des physiciens du domaine du photovoltaïque permettent d'illustrer l' apport de ces développements. Un cas d’optimisation inverse de réseau de diffraction dans une cellule solaire est également présenté en couplant le solveur numérique avec un algorithme d’optimisation bayésienne. De plus, une étude approfondie des performances du solveur a également été réalisée avec des modifications méthodologiques pour contrer les problèmes de répartition de charge. Enfin, une méthode plus prospective, la méthode Multiéchelle Hybride-Mixte (MHM) spécialisée dans la résolution de problème très fortement multiéchelle est introduite. Un schéma en temps multiéchelle est présenté et sa stabilité prouvée.
The objective of this thesis is the numerical study of light trapping in nanostructured solar cells. Climate change has become a major issue requiring a short-term energy transition. In this context, solar energy seems to be an ideal energy source. This resource is both globally scalable and environmentally friendly. In order to maximize its penetration, it is needed to increase the amount of light absorbed and reduce the costs associated with cell design. Light trapping is a strategy that achieves both of these objectives. The principle is to use nanometric textures to focus the light in the absorbing semiconductor layers. In this work, the Discontinuous Galerkin Time-Domain (DGTD) method is introduced. Two major methodological developments are presented, allowing to better take into account the characteristics of solar cells. First, the use of a local approximation order is proposed, based on a particular order distribution strategy. The second development…

▼ High-
order spectral element methods (SEM) while very accurate for computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations can be prohibitively expensive for meshes with difficult geometries. Controlling the number of iterations in the pressure solver can significantly reduce the computing time of CFD applications. A low-
order finite element (FEM) operator collocated on the Gauss-Lobatto-Legendre (GLL) points in the SEM discretization is proposed as preconditioner. Three different versions of the preconditioner based on combinations of the low-
order stiffness and mass matrices are tested for 2D and 3D geometries. When building the preconditioning operators a new meshing approach that allows elements to overlap and need not fill out the volume of the mesh are explored and proven to be better than traditional schemes. With these preconditioners a bound on the number of iterations is attained regardless of mesh geometry or polynomial degree used. This novel meshing strategy achieves a reduction up to 30% in the number of iterations compared to the best current schemes without increasing the computational cost of the preconditioners, and it also overcomes the shortcommings of other well known preconditioners such as the hybrid Schwarz preconditioner.

▼ High-resolution flow simulations are becoming important for increasingly many engineering applications. While
high-resolution simulations give us the accuracy needed for engineering purposes, they generally demand
high computational power and suitable meshes. Generating
high-quality meshes itself is by no means a trivial problem. This dissertation presents a meshing algorithm that aims to eliminate the reliance on user’s experience, which has constantly compromised accuracy, created robustness issues, and caused difficulties in producing
high-quality meshes. The novelty of our meshing algorithm lies in the optimal placement of the
high-
order geometry nodes within an element for more accurate and robust computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations.
We first introduce a new mesh refinement
method, called warped-element refinement (q adaptation), in which the
high-
order geometry nodes are automatically placed at their optimal locations given fixed locations of an element’s primary vertices. The benefits of this refinement
method are demonstrated in an adaptive framework with a
high-
order, discontinuous Galerkin discretization and an a posteriori output error estimate. For fluid flows governed by the Euler, Navier-Stokes, and Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes equations, for example, the drag output error can be reduced by at least a factor of two compared to the initial h-adapted mesh without adding much computational cost and software complexity. The optimal placement of the
high-
order geometry nodes also opens up the possibility of using coarser meshes with a
high-
order discretization.
In
order to better couple the optimal placement of an element’s vertices and its
high-
order geometry nodes, we turn to a Riemannian metric field to encode the mesh resolution. The three key steps in this process are: 1) obtain the desired higher-
order, Riemannian metric field, 2) generate a linear, metric-conforming mesh, and 3) place the
high-
order geometry nodes such that the mesh-implied metric conforms to the desired metric field. We propose two methods to obtain a higher-
order metric field and explore several metric-based mesh generation procedures for one-dimensional problems. Preliminary two-dimensional results further emphasize the importance of the
high-
order geometry nodes. These findings serve as fundamental knowledge for building a
high-
order, metric-conforming mesh generator in the future.

▼ Cette thèse porte sur l’étude d’une méthode de type Galerkin discontinu en domaine temporel (GDDT), afin de résoudre numériquement les équations de Maxwell instationnaires sur des maillages hybrides tétraédriques/hexaédriques en 3D (triangulaires/quadrangulaires en 2D) et non-conformes, que l’on note méthode GDDT-PpQk. Comme dans différents travaux déjà réalisés sur plusieurs méthodes hybrides (par exemple des combinaisons entre des méthodes Volumes Finis et Différences Finies, Éléments Finis et Différences Finies, etc.), notre objectif principal est de mailler des objets ayant une géométrie complexe à l’aide de tétraèdres, pour obtenir une précision optimale, et de mailler le reste du domaine (le vide environnant) à l’aide d’hexaèdres impliquant un gain en terme de mémoire et de temps de calcul. Dans la méthode GDDT considérée, nous utilisons des schémas de discrétisation spatiale basés sur une interpolation polynomiale nodale, d’ordre arbitraire, pour approximer le champ électromagnétique. Nous utilisons un flux centré pour approcher les intégrales de surface et un schéma d’intégration en temps de type saute-mouton d’ordre deux ou d’ordre quatre. Après avoir introduit le contexte historique et physique des équations de Maxwell, nous présentons les étapes détaillées de la méthode GDDT-PpQk. Nous réalisons ensuite une analyse de stabilité L2 théorique, en montrant que cette méthode conserve une énergie discrète et en exhibant une condition suffisante de stabilité de type CFL sur le pas de temps, ainsi que l’analyse de convergence en h (théorique également), conduisant à un estimateur d’erreur a-priori. Ensuite, nous menons une étude numérique complète en 2D (ondes TMz), pour différents cas tests, des maillages hybrides et non-conformes, et pour des milieux de propagation homogènes ou hétérogènes. Nous faisons enfin de même pour la mise en oeuvre en 3D, avec des simulations réalistes, comme par exemple la propagation d’une onde électromagnétique dans un modèle hétérogène de tête humaine. Nous montrons alors la cohérence entre les résultats mathématiques et numériques de cette méthode GDDT-PpQk, ainsi que ses apports en termes de précision et de temps de calcul.
This thesis is concerned with the study of a Discontinuous Galerkin Time-Domain method (DGTD), for the numerical resolution of the unsteady Maxwell equations on hybrid tetrahedral/hexahedral in 3D (triangular/quadrangular in 2D) and non-conforming meshes, denoted by DGTD-PpQk method. Like in several studies on various hybrid time domain methods (such as a combination of Finite Volume with Finite Difference methods, or Finite Element with Finite Difference, etc.), our general objective is to mesh objects with complex geometry by tetrahedra for high precision and mesh the surrounding space by square elements for simplicity and speed. In the discretization scheme of the DGTD method considered here, the electromagnetic field components are approximated by a high order nodal polynomial, using a centered approximation for the surface integrals. Time integration of…

▼ The development of numerical methods for the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations received much attention in the past 50 years. Finite element methods emerged given their robustness and reliability. In our work, we choose the P2-P1 finite element for space approximation which gives 2nd-order accuracy for velocity and 1st-order accuracy for pressure. Our research focuses on the development of several high-order semi-implicit time-stepping methods to compute unsteady flows. The methods investigated include backward difference formulae (SBDF) and defect correction strategy (DC). Using the defect correction strategy, we investigate two variants, the first one being based on high-order artificial compressibility and bootstrapping strategy proposed by Guermond and Minev (GM) and the other being a combination of GM methods with sequential regularization method (GM-SRM). Both GM and GM-SRM methods avoid solving saddle point problems as for SBDF and DC methods. This approach reduces the complexity of the linear systems at the expense that many smaller linear systems need to be solved. Next, we proposed several numerical improvements in terms of better approximations of the nonlinear advection term and high-order initialization for all methods. To further minimize the complexity of the resulting linear systems, we developed several new variants of grad-div splitting algorithms besides the one studied by Guermond and Minev. Splitting algorithm allows us to handle larger flow problems. We showed that our new methods are capable of reproducing flow characteristics (e.g., lift and drag parameters and Strouhal numbers) published in the literature for 2D lid-driven cavity and 2D flow around the cylinder. SBDF methods with grad-div stabilization terms are found to be very stable, accurate and efficient when computing flows with high Reynolds numbers. Lastly, we showcased the robustness of our methods to carry 3D computations.

▼ Wood composite poles are new engineered products with polygonal shapes and bonded with synthetic resins. The poles have multiple advantages over the solid wood poles and are a promising solid pole substitute in power transmission, telecommunication, and cable TV services. The use of composite poles may reduce the cost both in materials and manipulation, and facilitate installation and treatment. It is necessary to evaluate the factors that affect their properties and construct theoretical and analytical models to analyze these properties. Experiments were conducted to investigate strip thickness and number of strips’ (NOS) effects on the flexural properties and shear stress of wood composite poles. Small-scale (diameter = 7.6 cm (3 in), length = 1.16 m (48 in)) and full size poles (diameter = 10.2 cm (4 in), length = 6 m (20 ft) were manufactured for this purpose. Four strip thickness levels and three number-of-strip levels for the small-scale poles, and three thickness levels and two number-of-strip levels for full-size poles were chosen as experimental variables. The lumber was cut into strips, which were bonded with synthetic resin in molds, and the resulting poles were evaluated in a cantilever test. Results show that the effects of strip thickness were negative on glue-line shear and positive on the shear at poles’ clamped ends. But thickness had little effects on maximum bending stress of the small-scale poles and Young’s modulus of both full- and small-scale poles. With the increase of NOS, Young’s modulus of poles was increased. NOS had little effects on the maximum bending stress and glue-line shear of small-scale poles. A theoretical analysis was carried out to study the deflection and stress of composite poles. Governing differential equations were derived from high-order differential equations based on the principle of minimum potential energy theorem. Transverse shear and body forces were included in the model. Investigations were also carried out to find glue-line effects on the stress and deflection of composite poles. An analytical solution is modeled with the finite element analysis using ANSYS. Both theoretical and analytical solutions were verified by the experimental data.
