    Notes: A finite element formulation and analysis is developed to study coupled heat transfer and viscous flow in a weld pool. The thermal effects generate not only buoyancy forces but also a variation in the surface tension which acts to drive the viscous flow in the molten weld pool. A moving phase boundary separates molten and solid material. Numerical experiments reveal the nature of the highly convective flow in the weld pool and the associated thermal profiles. The relative importance of buoyancy, surface tension, phase change, convection, etc. are examined. We also consider the sensitivity of the solution to the finite element mesh and related non-linear numerical instabilities. Of particular interest is the coupling of the thermal and viscous flow fields for the case when radial flow is inward or outward.

    Notes: A double-transform technique provides a semi-analytic solution in the form of a series expansion for unsteady axisymmetric Stokes flow in the entrance region of a semi-infinite rigid cylindrical tube. This in turn offers an appropriate bench-mark problem for evaluating the quality of numerical approximations. To illustrate this, periodic axial flow in a circular cylinder is considered. Some aspects of the bench-mark problem that are of interest include the reverse flow in the wall layers, the accuracy of the approximate method in different flow regimes and the mesh grading. This bench-mark problem and the numerical study provide some insight into practical issues pertinent to the approximate solution of unsteady and periodic flows.

    Notes: Viscoelastic flows remain a demanding class of problems for approximate analysis, particularly at increasing Weissenberg numbers. Part of the difficulty stems from the convective behavior and in the treatment of the stress field as a primary unknown. This latter aspect has led to the use of higher-order piecewise approximations for the stress approximation spaces in recent finite element research. The computational complexity of the discretized problem is increased significantly by this approach but at present it appears the most viable technique for solving these problems. Motivated by recent success in treating mixed systems and convective problems, we formulate here a least squares finite element method for the viscoelastic flow problem. Numerical experiments are conducted to test the method and examine its strengths and limitations. Some difficulties and open issues are identified through the numerical experiments. We consider the use of high degree elements (p refinement) to improve performance and accuracy.

    Notes: Superconvergence error estimates are established for a class of semilinear problems defined by a linear elliptic operator with a nonlinear forcing term. The analysis is for rectangular biquadratic elements, and we prove superconvergence of the derivative components along associated lines through the Gauss points. Derivative postprocessing formula and formulas for integrals are also considered and similar superconvergence estimates proven.

    Notes: Fisher's equation is a classical diffusion-reaction type of problem describing diffusion and nonlinear reproduction of a species. In the present study we develop a least-squares finite element formulation of Fisher's equation and carry out supporting numerical studies. Of particular interest are questions associated with the approximation of progressive wave solutions with minimum speed and the viability of the least-squares approach for this class of problem. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: In this work we construct an extension to a class of higher-order compact methods for the three-dimensional Poisson equation. A superconvergent nodal rate of O(h6) is predicted, or O(h4) if the forcing function derivatives are not known exactly. Numerical experiments are conducted to verify these theoretical rates. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: A regularization procedure for nonlinear conservation equations is introduced and demonstrated to have a stabilizing effect on the numerical solution of the associated approximate problem. Representative results for a least-squares finite-element method are given, and the numerical performance of the stabilization procedure explored. The effect of the regularization term is similar to a local numerical dissipation dependent on the numerical itegration time step.
