    Notes: Finite element methods are formulated and investigated for the effectiveness factor problem for heat and mass transfer with chemical reactions in catalyst pellet models. A Galerkin finite element method is compared with a previous C1 collocation method7. A scheme that is conceptually intermediate between these two methods and accordingly has been termed collocation-Galerkin is formulated and numerical experiments considered. Of particular interest here are superconvergence results at the Gauss and Jacobi points, respectively. Numerical studies of superconvergence in the presence of a nonlinear reaction-rate term are presented. An integral formula is devised and used to compute the flux at the pellet surface to optimal accuracy. Numerical experiments are conducted to demonstrate the improvement in computed fluxes.

    Notes: An analysis of the stability and oscillation properties of upwind finite element methods for convection-diffusion is given and used to develop a variable upwinding formulation. This formulation is particularly well suited to problems with nonconstant coefficients, nonlinearity or non-uniform meshes. We present the theoretical analysis and numerical studies for a standard steady-state and transient model one-dimensional convection-diffusion problem. The variable upwind strategy can also be used to significant advantage in conjunction with adaptive mesh refinement. Numerical results for the steady-state case in which convection dominates and the mesh is adaptively refined into a boundary layer confirm the efficacy of the scheme.

    Notes: A moving-grid finite element model for the analysis of thermal ablation, fluid flow and deformation in elastic porous media is presented. The model is formulated in terms of temperatures, fluid pressures and solid displacements, and takes into account a moving phase boundary. Supporting algorithms for treating the moving phase boundary and solving the coupled equations are described. The model has application to several important moving-boundary geotechnical problems. Numerical test cases are provided for model verification and example applications corresponding to thermal ablation, consolidation and underground coal gasification are given.

    Notes: A perturbation analysis is developed for 1-D shallow water flow over a curved bed for applications such as spillways. The perturbation approach leads to a new formulation of the problem with associated weak integral statement and approximation using finite elements. The flow may exhibit a hydraulic jump in the downstream regime. An artificial dissipation technique is introduced to stabilize the non-linear problem and suppress numerical oscillations. Numerical results demonstrate the performance of the model and compare it with the steep-slope shallow water formulation corresponding to the model with zero curvature.

    Notes: A large part of the computational effort in shape optimization problems is expended in the numerical computation of the gradients for sensitivity information. This effort increases dramatically with an increase in the number of variables used to represent the shape. An adaptation of the gradient projection algorithm for shape optimization problems is described here along with a method to reduce the intermediate size of the optimization problem by allowing adaptive refinement of the shape. The method is demonstrated with a simple representative test case.

    Notes: We develop a class of higher-order mixed finite difference methods for elliptic partial differential equations. The problem is recast as a first-order mixed system and the higher-order compact schemes follow as a natural extension of the formulations we developed previously for the scalar PDE problem. Since the flux appears explicitly in the mixed formulation we obtain higher-order (nodal superconvergent) solutions in both the primary solution field and also the flux. Some supporting numerical experiments are included to demonstrate the superconvergent rates. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: A p-type finite-element scheme is introduced for Navier-Stokes problems in a fully coupled stream function/vorticity formulation. The resulting coupled non-linear system is solved using a Newton iteration with incremental continuation in the Reynold's number. A biconjugate gradient (BCG) scheme in an element-by-element setting is applied to solve the linearized system at each Newton iteration. Pseudo-element block preconditioners produce a practical PBCG method, even for ill-conditioned systems arising from high-p elements in the case of Stokes flow. The problem at higher Reynolds numbers further limits p.
