    Notes: Abstract This paper describes a three-step finite element method and its applications to unsteady incompressible fluid flows. The stability analysis of the one-dimensional purely convection equation shows that this method has third-order accuracy and an extended numerical stability domain in comparison with the Lax-Wendroff finite element method. The method is cost effective for incompressible flows, because it permits less frequent updates of the pressure field with good accuracy. In contrast with the Taylor-Galerkin method, the present three-step finite element method does not contain any new higher-order derivatives, and is suitable for solving non-linear multi-dimensional problems and flows with complicated outlet boundary conditions. The three-step finite element method has been used to simulate unsteady incompressible flows, such as the vortex pairing in mixing layer. The properties of the flow fields are displayed by the marker and cell technique. The obtained numerical results are in good agreement with the literature.

    Notes: This paper presents a finite element analysis based on the Lagrangian description for unsteady incompressible viscous fluid flow with a free surface. The behaviour of the fluid is expressed by the unsteady Navier-Stokes equation. For numerical integration in time the fractional step method is used. This method is useful because one can use the same linear interpolation functions for both velocity and pressure. In this paper, four variations of the fractional step method are presented and the numerical results are compared. To confirm the effectiveness of these methods, solitary wave propagation is analysed.

    Notes: In this paper a finite element solution for two-dimensional incompressible viscous flow is considered. The velocity correction method (explicit forward Euler) is applied for time integration. Discretization in space is carried out by the Galerkin weighted residual method. The solution is in terms of primitive variables, which are approximated by piecewise bilinear basis functions defined on isoparametric rectangular elements. The second step of the obtained algorithm is the solution of the Poisson equation derived for pressure. Emphasis is placed on the prescription of the proper boundary conditions for pressure in order to achieve the correct solution. The scheme is completed by the introduction of the balancing tensor viscosity; this makes this method stable (for the advection-dominated case) and permits us to employ a larger time increment. Two types of example are presented in order to demonstrate the performance of the developed scheme. In the first case all normal velocity components on the boundary are specified (e.g. lid-driven cavity flow). In the second type of example the normal derivative of velocity is applied over a portion of the boundary (e.g. flow through sudden expansion). The application of the described method to non-isothermal flows (forced convection) is also included.

    Notes: A new finite element technique for the analysis of wave run-up is presented in this paper. In this finite element approach, the movement of the shoreline is expressed by that of the nodal points at the wave front, and an auto mesh generation technique is effectively used. The present method is tested by the comparison with the experimental result of a channel with uniform slope, and two numerical examples are reported to show the efficiency of this method. As a final example, the tsunami run-up caused by the 1983 Nihonkai-Chubu earthquake is analysed and compared with actual records of the flooded area.

    Notes: Two dimensional sloshing analysis has been carried out by the Lagrangian finite element method. For the integration in time, the velocity correction method with the same interpolation functions for velocity and pressure is successfully used. The Lagrangian treatment to pursue the free surface position is presented. The comparison with the experiments shows extremely good agreement. It is shown that the large amplitude sloshing waves in a container can be analyzed by the present method.

    Notes: An extension of the authors' previous methods is presented for the optimal control of flood propagation via a dam gate, based on a combination of the finite element and gradient methods. It is assumed in previous papers that the control duration is the same as the duration of the flood. However, the duration of the control does not necessarily coincide with that of the flood flow. To overcome this difficulty, the gradient method is applied to solve the free terminal time-fixed terminal condition problem. It is shown that the water elevation can be controlled exactly the same as with the previously presented method. It is also shown that the computation can be terminated at a far shorter time than the terminal time of the flood.

    Notes: A numerical method is presented to analyse a steady convection-diffusion problem with a first-order chemical reaction defined on an infinite region. The present method is based on the combined finite element and boundary element methods. For one- and two-dimensional examples in an infinite region the numerical results by the present method are in excellent agreement with the exact solutions. As a practical application, the simulation of the concentration distribution of the chemical oxygen demand at Kojima Bay is carried out.

    Notes: A method to deal with an open boundary condition in the analysis of water surface waves, the tide, etc. by means of the finite element method is proposed in this paper. The present method has two important features relating to the treatment of the open boundary condition. The first feature is to consider the non-reflective virtual boundary condition which has been developed in the numerical wave analysis method. The incident wave conditions without spurious reflected waves can be imposed at the open boundary. The second feature is to identify the amplitude of the components of incident waves in terms of observed water elevations in the field of standing waves. This can be done as a parameter identification based on an optimization problem by applying the conjugate gradient method. The applicability of this method to wave propagation problems is verified by several numerical computations.
