It is well known that major error occur in the time integration instead of the spatial approximation. In this work, anisotropic kernels are used for temporal as well as spatial approximation to construct a numerical scheme for solving nonlinear Burgers’ equations. The time-dependent PDEs are collocated in both space and time first, contrary to spatial discretization, and time stepping procedures for time integration are then applied. Physically one cannot in general expect that the spatial and temporal features of the solution behaves on the same order. Hence, one should have to incorporate anisotropic kernels. The nonlinear Burgers’ equations are converted by nonlinear transformation to linear equations. The spatial discretizations are carried out to construct differentiation matrices. Comparisons with most available numerical methods are made to solve the Burgers’ equations.

Abstract In the current paper the efficiency of the sparse-grid combination tech- nique applied to time-dependent advection-diffusion problems is investigated. For the time-integration we employ a third-order Rosenbrock scheme implemented with adap- tive step-size control and approximate matrix factorization. Two model problems are considered, a scalar 2D linear, constant-coe±cient problem and a system of 2D non- linear Burgers' equations. In short, the combination technique proved more efficient than a single grid approach for the simpler linear problem. For the Burgers' equations this gain in efficiency was only observed if one of the two solution components was set to zero, which makes the problem more grid-aligned.

The initial boundary-value problem associated to a semilinear wave equation with time-dependent boundary values was approximated by using the method of lines. Time integration is achieved by means of an explicit time method obtained from an arbitrarily high-order splitting scheme. We propose a technique to incorporate the boundary values that is more accurate than the one obtained in the standard way, which is clearly seen in the numerical experiments. We prove the consistency and convergence, with the same order of the splitting method, of the full discretization carried out with this technique. Although we performed mathematical analysis under the hypothesis that the source term was Lipschitz-continuous, numerical experiments show that this technique works in more general cases.

A simple and efficient numerical scheme is presented for the prediction of temperature field distribution inside a tree trunk subjected to ground fire conditions. The trunk is modelled by a cylinder of circular cross section and unit length, through which the time-dependent heat conduction equation is numerically integrated. The model is partly validated in laboratory and then applied to the case of a prescribed ground fire inside a Pinus pinmter stand.

Capabilities for the analysis of combined viscous and plastic behavior have been added to an existing finite element computer program for two-dimensional elastic-plastic calculations. This program (PAPSTB) has been formulated for elastic-plastic stress and deformation analyses of two-dimensional and axisymmetric structures. It has the ability to model large strains and large deformations of elastic-perfectly plastic, multi-linear hardening, or power-hardening materials. The program is based on incremental plasticity theory with a von Mises yield criterion. Time dependent behavior has been introduced into the PAPSTB program by adding a viscous strain increment to the elastic and plastic strain increment to form the total strain increment. The viscous calculations presently employ a power-law relationship between the viscous strain rate and the effective stress. The finite element code can be easily modified to handle more complex viscous models. The Newmark method for time integration is used, i.e., an input parameter is included which enables the user to vary the time domain approximation between forward (explicit) and backward (implicit) difference. Automatic time stepping is used to provide for stability in the viscous calculations. It is controlled by an input parameter related to the ratio of the current viscous strain increment to the total strain. The viscoplastic capabilities of the PAPSTB program are verified using the axisymmetric problem of an internally pressurized, thick-walled cylinder. The transient viscoplastic case is analyzed to demonstrate that the elastic-perfectly plastic solution is obtained as a steady-state condition is approached. The influence of varying the time integration parameter for transient viscoplastic calculations is demonstrated. In addition, the effects of time step on solution accuracy are investigated by means of the automatic time stepping algorithm in the program. The approach is then applied to a simple forging problem of cylinder upsetting.

The concept of hopping within a Gaussian density of localized states introduced earlier to rationalize charge transport in random organic photoconductors is developed further to account for temporal features of time of flight (TOF) signals. At moderate degree of energetic disorder (σ/kT~3.5…4.5) there is a transport regime intermediate between dispersive and quasi-Gaussian type whose signatures are (i) universal TOF signals that can appear weakly dispersive despite yielding a well defined carrier mobility and (ii) an asymmetric propagator of the carrier packet yielding a time dependent diffusivity.

The present paper seeks to apply the ideas of discretisation to time dependent phenomena. As a suitable variational statement we may use Hamilton's principle. In practise this means that the time is discretised into a set of finite elements which are taken to be the same for all structural elements. A finite element in time consists simply of a fixed time interval. In our present discussion we detail in particular the case when at the beginning and end of the time interval the generalised displacements and velocities are given. For dynamic problems this is the minimum of information required, but the technique may easily be extended to account for additional “timewise degrees of freedoms”. Introducing an appropriate interpolation procedure we may obtain the displacement and velocity at any instant of time. It is then possible to carry out in the variational statement the time integration explicitly and to obtain hence a system of linear equations. The method is extremely simple, since the time interpolation of all structural freedoms of an element in space is the same. We also demonstrate that the general case of a multi-degree of freedoms system can be made to depend on the matrices which describe the unidimensional motion of a mass point.
