We derive the lower bound of the penalty parameter in the C-0 IPDG for the bi-harmonic equation. Based on the bound, we propose a pre-processing algorithm. Numerical examples are shown to support the theory. In addition, we found that an optimal penalty does exist. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

An Eulerian-Lagrangian discontinuous Galerkin method for transport problems and its application to nonlinear dynamics

Xiaofeng Cai, Jing-Mei Qiu, Yang Yang

Summary: The paper introduces a new method called ELDG, which incorporates a modified adjoint problem and integration of PDE over a space-time region partitioned by time-dependent linear functions. By introducing a new flux term to account for errors in characteristics approximation, the ELDG method combines the advantages of SL DG and classical Eulerian RK DG methods. The use of linear functions for characteristics approximation in the EL DG framework simplifies shapes of upstream cells and reduces time step constraints.

High order sign-preserving and well-balanced exponential Runge-Kutta discontinuous Galerkin methods for the shallow water equations with friction

Ruize Yang, Yang Yang, Yulong Xing

Summary: In this paper, a family of second and third order temporal integration methods for stiff ordinary differential equations is proposed, combining traditional Runge-Kutta and exponential Runge-Kutta methods to preserve sign and steady-state properties. These methods are applied with well-balanced discontinuous Galerkin spatial discretization to solve nonlinear shallow water equations with friction terms. The fully discrete schemes are demonstrated to satisfy well-balanced, positivity-preserving, and sign-preserving properties simultaneously, showing good numerical results on various test cases.

A hybrid-mixed finite element method for single-phase Darcy flow in fractured porous media

Guosheng Fu, Yang Yang

Summary: We propose a hybrid-mixed finite element method for a novel hybrid-dimensional model of single-phase Darcy flow in fractured porous media. Our method distinguishes between conductive and blocking fractures and uses a combination of classical interface model and recent Dirac-delta function approach to handle them. The use of Dirac-delta function approach allows for nonconforming meshes with respect to the blocking fractures. Our numerical scheme produces locally conservative velocity approximations and leads to a symmetric positive definite linear system involving pressure degrees of freedom on the mesh skeleton only.

The hybrid-dimensional Darcy?s law: a non-conforming reinterpreted discrete fracture model (RDFM) for single-phase flow in fractured media

Ziyao Xu, Zhaoqin Huang, Yang Yang

Summary: In this paper, a novel discrete fracture model is proposed for flow simulation of fractured porous media with flow blocking barriers on non-conforming meshes. The traditional Darcy's law is modified into a hybrid-dimensional Darcy's law to represent the fractures and barriers using Dirac-delta functions in the permeability tensor and resistance tensor, respectively. The model accurately accounts for the influence of highly conductive fractures and blocking barriers on non-conforming meshes, and the local discontinuous Galerkin method is employed to handle the pressure/flux discontinuity.

Dinghao Zhu, Xiaodong Zhu

Summary: This paper constructs the soliton solutions of the KdV equation with non-zero background using the Riemann-Hilbert approach. The irregular Riemann-Hilbert problem is first constructed by direct and inverse scattering transform, and then regularized by introducing a novel transformation. The residue theorem is applied to derive the multi-soliton solutions at the simple poles of the Riemann-Hilbert problem. In particular, the interaction dynamics of the two-soliton solution are illustrated by considering their evolutions at different time.
