In this paper, we study the numerical approximation of a system of partial dif-ferential equations describing the corrosion of an iron based alloy in a nuclear waste repository. In particular, we are interested in the convergence of a numerical scheme consisting in an implicit Euler scheme in time and a Scharfetter-Gummel finite volume scheme in space.

We present a strategy for solving time-dependent problems on grids with local refinements in time using different time steps in different regions of space. We discuss and analyze two conservative approximations based on finite volume with piecewise constant projections and domain decomposition techniques. Next we present an iterative method for solving the composite-grid system that reduces to solution of standard problems with standard time stepping on the coarse and fine grids. At every step of the algorithm, conservativity is ensured. Finally, numerical results illustrate the accuracy of the proposed methods.
We consider nonlinear hyperbolic conservation laws, posed on a differential (n+1)-manifold with boundary referred to as a spacetime, and in which the flux is defined as a flux field of n-forms depending on a parameter (the unknown variable). We introduce a formulation of the initial and boundary value problem which is geometric in nature and is more natural than the vector field approach recently developed for Riemannian manifolds. Our main assumption on the manifold and the flux field is a global hyperbolicity condition, which provides a global time-orientation as is standard in Lorentzian geometry and general relativity. Assuming that the manifold admits a foliation by compact slices, we establish the existence of a semi-group of entropy solutions. Moreover, given any two hypersurfaces with one lying in the future of the other, we establish a contraction property which compares two entropy solutions, in a (geometrically natural) distance equivalent to the L1 distance. To carry out the proofs, we rely on a new version of the finite volume method, which only requires the knowledge of the given n-volume form structure on the (n+1)-manifold and involves the {sl total flux} across faces of the elements of the triangulations, only, rather than the product of a numerical flux times the measure of that face.
This paper presents stability and convergence analysis of a finite volume scheme (FVS) for solving aggregation, breakage and the combined processes by showing Lipschitz continuity of the numerical fluxes. It is shown that the FVS is second order convergent independently of the meshes for pure breakage problem while for pure aggregation and coupled equations, it shows second order convergent on uniform and non-uniform smooth meshes. Furthermore, it gives only first order convergence on non-uniform grids. The mathematical results of convergence analysis are also demonstrated numerically for several test problems.
We consider a mono-dimensional two-velocities scheme used to approximate the solutions of a scalar hyperbolic conservative partial differential equation. We prove the convergence of the discrete solution toward the unique entropy solution by first estimating the supremum norm and the total variation of the discrete solution, and second by constructing a discrete kinetic entropy-entropy flux pair being given a continuous entropy-entropy flux pair of the hyperbolic system. We finally illustrate our results with numerical simulations of the advection equation and the Burgers equation.
We are interested in simulating blood flow in arteries with variable elasticity with a one dimensional model. We present a well-balanced finite volume scheme based on the recent developments in shallow water equations context. We thus get a mass conservative scheme which also preserves equilibria of Q=0. This numerical method is tested on analytical tests.
