    Notes: This paper is devoted to a comparison of the relative accuracy of two-dimensional vs. three-dimensional finite element representations of contaminant dispersion in shallow lakes. Formulations of both types are developed, followed by numerical calculations of a hypothetical lake. The results indicate that for typical lakes a two-dimensional dispersion analysis can be employed in the absence of a significant advective contribution. With significant advection the two-dimensional approach is not sufficiently accurate. A two-dimensional dispersion analysis requires approximately the same computational resources as a three-dimensional circulation analysis.

    Notes: The boundary integral method is formulated and applied using cubic spline interpolation along the boundary for both the geometry and the primary variables. The cubic spline interpolation has continuous first and second derivatives between elements, thus allowing the accurate calculation of derivative dependent functions (on the boundary) such as velocity in potential flow. The spline functions also smooth the geometry and can represent curved sections with fewer nodes.The results of numerical experiments indicate that the accuracy of the boundary integral equation method is improved for a given number of elements by using cubic spline interpolation. It is, however, necessary to use numerical quadrature. The quadrature slows calculation and/or degrades the accuracy. The numerical experiments indicate that most problems run faster for a given accuracy using linear interpolation. There seems to be a class of problems, however, which requires higher order interpolation and/or continuous derivatives for which the cubic spline interpolation works much better than linear interpolation.

    Notes: An improvement to a previously described algorithm that systematically generates shape functions is presented. The new method produces explicit closed-form shape functions which may be programmed directly. The previous method evaluated the shape functions numerically at the Gauss points by means of repetitive subroutine calls. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Overdetermined linear systems often arise in applications such as signal processing and modern communication. When the overdetermined system of linear equations AX ≍ B has no solution, compatibility may be restored by an orthogonal projection method. The idea is to determine an orthogonal projection matrix P by some method M such that [à B̃] = P[A B], and ÃX = B̃ is compatible. Denote by XM the minimum norm solution to ÃX = B̃ using method M. In this paper conditions for compatibility of the lower rank approximation and subspace properties of à in relation to the nearest rank-k matrix to A are discussed. We find upper and lower bounds for the difference between the solution XM and the SVD-based total least squares (TLS) solution XSVD and also provide a perturbation result for the ordinary TLS method. These results suggest a new algorithm for computing a total least squares solution based on a rank revealing QR factorization and subspace refinement. Numerical simulations are included to illustrate the conclusions.

    Notes: Second-order universal kriging is proposed as an accurate model for interpolating displacements measured in the field to nodal points of a superimposed finite element mesh. These interpolated displacements are used in a modified finite element procedure to calculate strain. This model is compared to a local trend model to judge superiority. Interpolation models are tested by randomly sampling displacements obtained in a finite element analysis, then applying interpolation in attempts to reconstruct the original results.

    Notes: An upwind finite element technique that uses cell-centred quantities and implicit and/or explicit time marching has been developed for computing hypersonic laminar viscous flows using adaptive triangular grids. The approach is an extension to unstructured grids of the LAURA algorithm due to Gnoffo. A structured grid of quadrilaterals is laid out near a solid surface. For inviscid flows the method is stable at Courant numbers of over 100000. A first-order basic scheme and a higher-order flux-corrected transport (FCT) scheme have been implemented. This technique has been applied to the problem of predicting type III and IV shock wave interactions on a cylinder, with a view to simulating the pressure and heating rate augmentation caused by an impinging shock on the leading edge of a cowl lip of an engine inlet. The predictions of wall pressure and heating rates compare very well with experimental data. The flow features are distinctly captured with a sequence of adaptively generated grids.
