Space-time FEM-BEM couplings for parabolic transmission problems

Gregor Gantner: Thursday, 17th October at 11:00 Abstract: In this talk, we discuss stable space-time FEM-BEM couplings [1] to numerically solve parabolic transmission problems on the full space and a finite time interval.The couplings are based on the space-time FOSLS [2,3] in the interior and the space-time BEM [4] in the exterior.In particular, we demonstrate coercivity of the couplings under certain restrictions and validate our theoretical findings by numerical experiments.

Adaptive computation of fourth-order problems

Carsten Carstensen: Monday, 10th September at 11:00 Abstract: The popular (piecewise) quadratic schemes for the fourth-order plate bending problems based on triangles are the nonconforming Morley finite element, two discontinuous Galerkin, the C0 interior penalty, and the WOPSIP schemes. The first part of the presentation discusses recent applications to the linear bi-Laplacian and to semi-linear fourth-order problems like the stream function vorticity formulation of incompressible 2D Navier-Stokes problem and the von Kármán plate bending problem. The role of a smoother is emphasised and reliable and efficient a posteriori error estimators give rise to adaptive mesh-refining strategies that recover optimal rates in numerical experiments. The last part addresses recent developments on adaptive multilevel Argyris finite element methods. The presentation is based on joint work with B. Gräßle, (Humboldt) and N. Nataraj (IITB, Mumbai) partly reflected in the references below. REFERENCES [1] C. Carstensen, B. Gräßle,, and N. Nataraj.

Computable reliable bounds for Poincaré–Friedrichs constants via Čech–de-Rham complexes

Martin Licht: Thursday, 25th April at 11:00 Abstract: We derive computable and reliable upper bounds for Poincaré–Friedrichs constants of classical Sobolev spaces and, more generally, Sobolev de-Rham complexes. The upper bounds are in terms of local Poincaré–Friedrichs constants over subdomains and the smallest singular value of a finite-dimensional operator that is easily assembled from the geometric setting. Thus we reduce the computational effort when computing the Poincaré–Friedrichs constant of finite de-Rham complexes, and we provide computable reliable bounds even for the original Sobolev de-Rham complex. The reduction to a finite-dimensional system uses diagram chasing within a Čech–de-Rham complex.

Homogeneous multigrid for hybrid discretizations: application to HHO methods

Andreas Rupp： Tuesday, 2nd April at 14:00 Abstract: We prove the uniform convergence of the geometric multigrid V-cycle for hybrid high-order (HHO) and other discontinuous skeletal methods. Our results generalize previously established results for HDG methods, and our multigrid method uses standard smoothers and local solvers that are bounded, convergent, and consistent. We use a weak version of elliptic regularity in our proofs. Numerical experiments confirm our theoretical results.
