The paper proposes a new, conservative fully-discrete scheme for the numerical solution of the regularised shallow water Boussinesq system of equations in the cases of periodic and reflective boundary conditions. The particular system is one of a class of equations derived recently and can be used in practical simulations to describe the propagation of weakly nonlinear and weakly dispersive long water waves, such as tsunamis. Studies of small-amplitude long waves usually require long-time simulations in order to investigate scenarios such as the overtaking collision of two solitary waves or the propagation of transoceanic tsunamis. For long-time simulations of non-dissipative waves such as solitary waves, the preservation of the total energy by the numerical method can be crucial in the quality of the approximation. The new conservative fully-discrete method consists of a Galerkin finite element method for spatial semidiscretisation and an explicit relaxation Runge--Kutta scheme for integration in time. The Galerkin method is expressed and implemented in the framework of mixed finite element methods. The paper provides an extended experimental study of the accuracy and convergence properties of the new numerical method. The experiments reveal a new convergence pattern compared to standard Galerkin methods.
Numerical approximation of a general class of nonlinear unidirectional wave equations with a convolution-type nonlocality in space is considered. A semi-discrete numerical method based on both a uniform space discretization and the discrete convolution operator is introduced to solve the Cauchy problem. The method is proved to be uniformly convergent as the mesh size goes to zero. The order of convergence for the discretization error is linear or quadratic depending on the smoothness of the convolution kernel. The discrete problem defined on the whole spatial domain is then truncated to a finite domain. Restricting the problem to a finite domain introduces a localization error and it is proved that this localization error stays below a given threshold if the finite domain is large enough. For two particular kernel functions, the numerical examples concerning solitary wave solutions illustrate the expected accuracy of the method. Our class of nonlocal wave equations includes the Benjamin-Bona-Mahony equation as a special case and the present work is inspired by the previous work of Bona, Pritchard and Scott on numerical solution of the Benjamin-Bona-Mahony equation.
We develop a general framework for designing conservative numerical methods based on summation by parts operators and split forms in space, combined with relaxation Runge-Kutta methods in time. We apply this framework to create new classes of fully-discrete conservative methods for several nonlinear dispersive wave equations: Benjamin-Bona-Mahony (BBM), Fornberg-Whitham, Camassa-Holm, Degasperis-Procesi, Holm-Hone, and the BBM-BBM system. These full discretizations conserve all linear invariants and one nonlinear invariant for each system. The spatial semidiscretizations include finite difference, spectral collocation, and both discontinuous and continuous finite element methods. The time discretization is essentially explicit, using relaxation Runge-Kutta methods. We implement some specific schemes from among the derived classes, and demonstrate their favorable properties through numerical tests.
In this paper, we develop a well-balanced oscillation-free discontinuous Galerkin (OFDG) method for solving the shallow water equations with a non-flat bottom topography. One notable feature of the constructed scheme is the well-balanced property, which preserves exactly the hydrostatic equilibrium solutions up to machine error. Another feature is the non-oscillatory property, which is very important in the numerical simulation when there exist some shock discontinuities. To control the spurious oscillations, we construct an OFDG method with an extra damping term to the existing well-balanced DG schemes proposed in [Y. Xing and C.-W. Shu, CICP, 1(2006), 100-134.]. With a careful construction of the damping term, the proposed method achieves both the well-balanced property and non-oscillatory property simultaneously without compromising any order of accuracy. We also present a detailed procedure for the construction and a theoretical analysis for the preservation of the well-balancedness property. Extensive numerical experiments including one- and two-dimensional space demonstrate that the proposed methods possess the desired properties without sacrificing any order of accuracy.
In this paper, we focus on constructing numerical schemes preserving the averaged energy evolution law for nonlinear stochastic wave equations driven by multiplicative noise. We first apply the compact finite difference method and the interior penalty discontinuous Galerkin finite element method to discretize space variable and present two semi-discrete schemes, respectively. Then we make use of the discrete gradient method and the Pade approximation to propose efficient fully-discrete schemes. These semi-discrete and fully-discrete schemes are proved to preserve the discrete averaged energy evolution law. In particular, we also prove that the proposed fully-discrete schemes exactly inherit the averaged energy evolution law almost surely if the considered model is driven by additive noise. Numerical experiments are given to confirm theoretical findings.
The tempered fractional diffusion equation could be recognized as the generalization of the classic fractional diffusion equation that the truncation effects are included in the bounded domains. This paper focuses on designing the high order fully discrete local discontinuous Galerkin (LDG) method based on the generalized alternating numerical fluxes for the tempered fractional diffusion equation. From a practical point of view, the generalized alternating numerical flux which is different from the purely alternating numerical flux has a broader range of applications. We first design an efficient finite difference scheme to approximate the tempered fractional derivatives and then a fully discrete LDG method for the tempered fractional diffusion equation. We prove that the scheme is unconditionally stable and convergent with the order $O(h^{k+1}+tau^{2-alpha})$, where $h, tau$ and $k$ are the step size in space, time and the degree of piecewise polynomials, respectively. Finally numerical experimets are performed to show the effectiveness and testify the accuracy of the method.
