    Weak Boundary and Interface Procedures for Wave and Flow Problems2011Doctoral thesis, monograph (Other academic)
    Abstract [en]

    In this thesis, we have analyzed the accuracy and stability aspects of weak boundary and interface conditions (WBCs) for high order finite difference methods on Summations-By-Parts (SBP) form. The numerical technique has been applied to wave propagation and flow problems.

    The advantage of WBCs over strong boundary conditions is that stability of the numerical scheme can be proven. The boundary procedures in the advection-diffusion equation for a boundary layer problem is analyzed. By performing Navier-Stokes calculations, it is shown that most of the conclusions from the model problem carries over to the fully nonlinear case.

    The work was complemented to include the new idea of using WBCs on multiple grid points in a region, where the data is known, instead of at a single point. It was shown that we can achieve high accuracy, an increased rate of convergence to steady-state and non-reflecting boundary conditions by using this approach.

    Using the SBP technique and WBCs, we have worked out how to construct conservative and energy stable hybrid schemes for shocks using two different approaches. In the first method, we combine a high order finite difference scheme with a second order MUSCL scheme. In the second method, a procedure to locally change the order of accuracy of the finite difference schemes is developed. The main purpose is to obtain a higher order accurate scheme in smooth regions and a low order non-oscillatory scheme in the vicinity of shocks.

    Furthermore, we have analyzed the energy stability of the MUSCL scheme, by reformulating the scheme in the framework of SBP and artificial dissipation operators. It was found that many of the standard slope limiters in the MUSCL scheme do not lead to a negative semi-definite dissipation matrix, as required to get pointwise stability.

    Finally, high order simulations of shock diffracting over a convex wall with two facets were performed. The numerical study is done for a range of Reynolds numbers. By monitoring the velocities at the solid wall, it was shown that the computations were resolved in the boundary layer. Schlieren images from the computational results were obtained which displayed new interesting flow features.

    Analysis of the SBP-SAT Stabilization for Finite Element Methods Part I: Linear Problems2020In: Journal of Scientific Computing, ISSN 0885-7474, E-ISSN 1573-7691, Vol. 85, no 2, article id 43Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    In the hyperbolic community, discontinuous Galerkin (DG) approaches are mainly applied when finite element methods are considered. As the name suggested, the DG framework allows a discontinuity at the element interfaces, which seems for many researchers a favorable property in case of hyperbolic balance laws. On the contrary, continuous Galerkin methods appear to be unsuitable for hyperbolic problems and there exists still the perception that continuous Galerkin methods are notoriously unstable. To remedy this issue, stabilization terms are usually added and various formulations can be found in the literature. However, this perception is not true and the stabilization terms are unnecessary, in general. In this paper, we deal with this problem, but present a different approach. We use the boundary conditions to stabilize the scheme following a procedure that are frequently used in the finite difference community. Here, the main idea is to impose the boundary conditions weakly and specific boundary operators are constructed such that they guarantee stability. This approach has already been used in the discontinuous Galerkin framework, but here we apply it with a continuous Galerkin scheme. No internal dissipation is needed even if unstructured grids are used. Further, we point out that we do not need exact integration, it suffices if the quadrature rule and the norm in the differential operator are the same, such that the summation-by-parts property is fulfilled meaning that a discrete Gauss Theorem is valid. This contradicts the perception in the hyperbolic community that stability issues for pure Galerkin scheme exist. In numerical simulations, we verify our theoretical analysis.

    Analysis of the SBP-SAT Stabilization for Finite Element Methods Part II: Entropy Stability2023In: Communications on Applied Mathematics and Computation, ISSN 2096-6385, Vol. 5, no 2, p. 573-595Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    In the hyperbolic research community, there exists the strong belief that a continuous Galerkin scheme is notoriously unstable and additional stabilization terms have to be added to guarantee stability. In the first part of the series [6], the application of simultaneous approximation terms for linear problems is investigated where the boundary conditions are imposed weakly. By applying this technique, the authors demonstrate that a pure continuous Galerkin scheme is indeed linearly stable if the boundary conditions are imposed in the correct way. In this work, we extend this investigation to the nonlinear case and focus on entropy conservation. By switching to entropy variables, we provide an estimation of the boundary operators also for nonlinear problems, that guarantee conservation. In numerical simulations, we verify our theoretical analysis.

    Energy Stable Model Reduction of Neurons by Non-negative Discrete Empirical Interpolation2016In: SIAM Journal on Scientific Computing, ISSN 1064-8275, E-ISSN 1095-7197, Vol. 38, no 2, p. B297-B326Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    The accurate and fast prediction of potential propagation in neuronal networks is of prime importance in neurosciences. This work develops a novel structure-preserving model reduction technique to address this problem based on Galerkin projection and nonnegative operator approximation. It is first shown that the corresponding reduced-order model is guaranteed to be energy stable, thanks to both the structure-preserving approach that constructs a distinct reduced-order basis for each cable in the network and the preservation of nonnegativity. Furthermore, a posteriori error estimates are provided, showing that the model reduction error can be bounded and controlled. Finally, the application to the model reduction of a large-scale neuronal network underlines the capability of the proposed approach to accurately predict the potential propagation in such networks while leading to important speedups.

    High-order accurate difference schemes for the Hodgkin-Huxley equations2012Report (Other academic)
    Abstract [en]

    A novel approach for simulating potential propagation in neuronal branches with high accuracy is developed. The method relies on high-order accurate dierence schemes using the Summation-By-Parts operators with weak boundary and interface conditions applied to the Hodgkin-Huxley equations. This work is the rst demonstrating high accuracy for that equation. Several boundary conditions are considered including the non-standard one accounting for the soma presence, which is characterized by its own partial dierential equation. Well-posedness for the continuous problem as well as stability of the discrete approximation is proved for all the boundary conditions. Gains in terms of CPU times are observed when high-order operators are used, demonstrating the advantage of the high-order schemes for simulating potential propagation in large neuronal trees.

    A stable and dual consistent boundary treatment using finite differences on summation-by-parts form2012In: European Congress on Computational Methods in Applied Sciences and Engineering, Vienna University of Technology , 2012Conference paper (Other academic)
    Abstract [en]

    This paper is concerned with computing very high order accurate linear functionals from a numerical solution of a time-dependent partial differential equation (PDE). Based on finite differences on summation-by-parts form, together with a weak implementation of the boundary conditions, we show how to construct suitable boundary conditions for the PDE such that the continuous problem is well-posed and the discrete problem is stable and spatially dual consistent. These two features result in a superconvergent functional, in the sense that the order of accuracy of the functional is provably higher than that of the solution.

    Duality based boundary conditions and dual consistent finite difference discretizations of the Navier–Stokes and Euler equations2014In: Journal of Computational Physics, ISSN 0021-9991, E-ISSN 1090-2716, Vol. 259, p. 135-153Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    In this paper we derive new farfield boundary conditions for the time-dependent Navier–Stokes and Euler equations in two space dimensions. The new boundary conditions are derived by simultaneously considering well-posedess of both the primal and dual problems. We moreover require that the boundary conditions for the primal and dual Navier–Stokes equations converge to well-posed boundary conditions for the primal and dual Euler equations.

    We perform computations with a high-order finite difference scheme on summation-by-parts form with the new boundary conditions imposed weakly by the simultaneous approximation term. We prove that the scheme is both energy stable and dual consistent and show numerically that both linear and non-linear integral functionals become superconvergent.

    Duality based boundary treatment for the Euler and Navier-Stokes equations2013In: AIAA Aerospace Sciences - Fluid Sciences Event, 2013, p. 1-19Conference paper (Other academic)
    Abstract [en]

    In this paper we construct well-posed boundary conditions for the compressible Euler and Navier-Stokes equations in two space dimensions. When also considering the dual equations, we show how to construct the boundary conditions so that both the primal and dual problems are well-posed. By considering the primal and dual problems simultaneously, we construct energy stable and dual consistent finite difference schemes on summation-by-  parts form with weak imposition of the boundary conditions.

    According to linear theory, the stable and dual consistent discretization can be used to compute linear integral functionals from the solution at a superconvergent rate. Here we evaluate numerically the superconvergence property for the non-linear Euler and Navier{ Stokes equations with linear and non-linear integral functionals.

    On the impact of boundary conditions on dual consistent finite difference discretizations2013In: Journal of Computational Physics, ISSN 0021-9991, E-ISSN 1090-2716, Vol. 236, p. 41-55Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    In this paper we derive well-posed boundary conditions for a linear incompletely parabolic system of equations, which can be viewed as a model problem for the compressible Navier{Stokes equations. We show a general procedure for the construction of the boundary conditions such that both the primal and dual equations are wellposed.

    The form of the boundary conditions is chosen such that reduction to rst order form with its complications can be avoided.

    The primal equation is discretized using finite difference operators on summation-by-parts form with weak boundary conditions. It is shown that the discretization can be made energy stable, and that energy stability is sufficient for dual consistency.

    Since reduction to rst order form can be avoided, the discretization is significantly simpler compared to a discretization using Dirichlet boundary conditions.

    We compare the new boundary conditions with standard Dirichlet boundary conditions in terms of rate of convergence, errors and discrete spectra. It is shown that the scheme with the new boundary conditions is not only far simpler, but also has smaller errors, error bounded properties, and highly optimizable eigenvalues, while maintaining all desirable properties of a dual consistent discretization.

    Spectral analysis of the continuous and discretized heat and advection equation on single and multiple domains2012In: Applied Numerical Mathematics, ISSN 0168-9274, E-ISSN 1873-5460, Vol. 62, no 11, p. 1620-1638Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    In this paper we study the heat and advectionequation in single and multipledomains. The equations are discretized using a second order accurate finite difference method on Summation-By-Parts form with weak boundary and interface conditions. We derive analytic expressions for the spectrum of the continuous problem and for their corresponding discretization matrices.

    It is shown how the spectrum of the singledomain operator is contained in the multi domain operator spectrum when artificial interfaces are introduced. The interface treatments are posed as a function of one parameter, and the impact on the spectrum and discretization error is investigated as a function of this parameter. Finally we briefly discuss the generalization to higher order accurate schemes.

    Stable Robin solid wall boundary conditions for the Navier-Stokes equations2011In: Journal of Computational Physics, ISSN 0021-9991, E-ISSN 1090-2716, Vol. 230, no 19, p. 7519-7532Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    In this paper we prove stability of Robin solid wall boundary conditions for the compressible Navier–Stokes equations. Applications include the no-slip boundary conditions with prescribed temperature or temperature gradient and the first order slip-flow boundary conditions. The formulation is uniform and the transitions between different boundary conditions are done by a change of parameters. We give different sharp energy estimates depending on the choice of parameters.

    The discretization is done using finite differences on Summation-By-Parts form with weak boundary conditions using the Simultaneous Approximation Term. We verify convergence by the method of manufactured solutions and show computations of flows ranging from no-slip to almost full slip.

    Superconvergent functional output for time-dependent problems using finite differences on summation-by-parts form2012In: Journal of Computational Physics, ISSN 0021-9991, E-ISSN 1090-2716, Vol. 231, no 20, p. 6846-6860Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    Finitedifference operators satisfying the summation-by-parts (SBP) rules can be used to obtain high order accurate, energy stable schemes for time-dependent partial differential equations, when the boundary conditions are imposed weakly by the simultaneous approximation term (SAT).

    In general, an SBP-SAT discretization is accurate of order p + 1 with an internal accuracy of 2p and a boundary accuracy of p. Despite this, it is shown in this paper that any linear functional computed from the time-dependent solution, will be accurate of order 2p when the boundary terms are imposed in a stable and dual consistent way.

    The method does not involve the solution of the dual equations, and superconvergent functionals are obtained at no extra computational cost. Four representative model problems are analyzed in terms of convergence and errors, and it is shown in a systematic way how to derive schemes which gives superconvergentfunctionaloutputs.

    A stable and conservative interface treatment of arbitrary spatial accuracy1999In: Journal of Computational Physics, ISSN 0021-9991, E-ISSN 1090-2716, Vol. 148, p. 341-365Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    Stable and accurate interface conditions based on the SAT penalty method are derived for the linear advection–diffusion equation. The conditions are functionally independent of the spatial order of accuracy and rely only on the form of the discrete operator. We focus on high-order finite-difference operators that satisfy the summation-by-parts (SBP) property. We prove that stability is a natural consequence of the SBP operators used in conjunction with the new, penalty type, boundary conditions. In addition, we show that the interface treatments are conservative. The issue of the order of accuracy of the interface boundary conditions is clarified. New finite-difference operators of spatial accuracy up to sixth order are constructed which satisfy the SBP property. These finite-difference operators are shown to admit design accuracy (pth-order global accuracy) when (p−1)th-order stencil closures are used near the boundaries, if the physical boundary conditions and interface conditions are implemented to at leastpth-order accuracy. Stability and accuracy are demonstrated on the nonlinear Burgers' equation for a 12-subdomain problem with randomly distributed interfaces.

    Revisiting and Extending Interface Penalties for Multidomain Summation-by-Parts Operators2010In: Journal of Scientific Computing, ISSN 0885-7474, E-ISSN 1573-7691, Vol. 45, no 1-3, p. 118-150Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    A general interface procedure is presented for multi-domain collocation methods satisfying the summation-by-parts (SBP) spatial discretization convention. Unlike more traditional operators (e.g. FEM) applied to the advection-diffusion equation, the new procedure penalizes the solution and the first p derivatives across the interface. The combined interior/interface operators are proven to be pointwise stable, and conservative, although accuracy deteriorates for p≥2. Penalties between two different sets of variables are compared (motivated by FEM primal and flux formulations), and are shown to be equivalent for certain choices of penalty parameters. Extensive validation studies are presented using two classes of high-order SBP operators: (1) central finite difference, and (2) Legendre spectral collocation.

    Hybrid Computational-Fluid-Dynamics Platform to Investigate Aircraft Trailing Vortices2019In: Journal of Aircraft, ISSN 0021-8669, E-ISSN 1533-3868, Vol. 56, no 1, p. 344-355Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    This paper outlines the development of a parallel three-dimensional hybrid finite volume finite difference capability. The specific application area under consideration is modeling the trailing vortices shed from the wings of aircraft under transonic flight conditions. For this purpose, the Elemental finite volume code is employed in the vicinity of the aircraft, whereas the ESSENSE finite difference software is employed to accurately resolve the trailing vortices. The former method is spatially formally second-order, and the latter is set to sixth-order accuracy. The coupling of the two methods is achieved in a stable manner through the use of summation-by-parts operators and weak imposition of boundary conditions using simultaneous approximation terms. The developed hybrid solver is successfully validated against an analytical test case. This is followed by demonstrating the ability to model the flowfield, including trailing vortex structures, around the NASA Common Research Model under transonic flow conditions. The interface treatment is shown to describe the intersecting vortices in a smooth manner. In addition, insights gained in resolving the vortices include violation of underlying assumptions of analytical vortex modeling methods.

    A simple and efficient incompressible Navier-Stokes solver for unsteady complex geometry flows on truncated domains2017In: Computers & Fluids, ISSN 0045-7930, E-ISSN 1879-0747, Vol. 150, p. 84-94Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    Incompressible Navier-Stokes solvers based on the projection method often require an expensive numerical solution of a Poisson equation for a pressure-like variable. This often involves linear system solvers based on iterative and multigrid methods which may limit the ability to scale to large numbers of processors. The artificial compressibility method (ACM) [6] introduces a time derivative of the pressure into the incompressible form of the continuity equation creating a coupled closed hyperbolic system that does not require a Poisson equation solution and allows for explicit time-marching and localized stencil numerical methods. Such a scheme should theoretically scale well on large numbers of CPUs, GPU'€™s, or hybrid CPU-GPU architectures. The original ACM was only valid for steady flows and dual-time stepping was often used for time-accurate simulations. Recently, Clausen [7] has proposed the entropically damped artificial compressibility (EDAC) method which is applicable to both steady and unsteady flows without the need for dual-time stepping. The EDAC scheme was successfully tested with both a finite-difference MacCormack'€™s method for the two-dimensional lid driven cavity and periodic double shear layer problem and a finite-element method for flow over a square cylinder, with scaling studies on the latter to large numbers of processors. In this study, we discretize the EDAC formulation with a new optimized high-order centered finite-difference scheme and an explicit fourth-order Runge-€“Kutta method. This is combined with an immersed boundary method to efficiently treat complex geometries and a new robust outflow boundary condition to enable higher Reynolds number simulations on truncated domains. Validation studies for the Taylor-€“Green Vortex problem and the lid driven cavity problem in both 2D and 3D are presented. An eddy viscosity subgrid-scale model is used to enable large eddy simulations for the 3D cases. Finally, an application to flow over a sphere is presented to highlight the boundary condition and performance comparisons to a traditional incompressible Navier-€“Stokes solver is shown for the 3D lid driven cavity. Overall, the combined EDAC formulation and discretization is shown to be both effective and affordable.

    Perfectly Matched Layers and High Order Difference Methods for Wave Equations2012Doctoral thesis, monograph (Other academic)
    Abstract [en]

    The perfectly matched layer (PML) is a novel technique to simulate the absorption of waves in unbounded domains. The underlying equations are often a system of second order hyperbolic partial differential equations. In the numerical treatment, second order systems are often rewritten and solved as first order systems. There are several benefits with solving the equations in second order formulation, though. However, while the theory and numerical methods for first order hyperbolic systems are well developed, numerical techniques to solve second order hyperbolic systems are less complete.

    We construct a strongly well-posed PML for second order systems in two space dimensions, focusing on the equations of linear elasto-dynamics. In the continuous setting, the stability of both first order and second order formulations are linearly equivalent. We have found that if the so-called geometric stability condition is violated, approximating the first order PML with standard central differences leads to a high frequency instability at most resolutions. In the second order setting growth occurs only if growing modes are well resolved. We determine the number of grid points that can be used in the PML to ensure a discretely stable PML, for several anisotropic elastic materials.

    We study the stability of the PML for problems where physical boundaries are important. First, we consider the PML in a waveguide governed by the scalar wave equation. To ensure the accuracy and the stability of the discrete PML, we derived a set of equivalent boundary conditions. Second, we consider the PML for second order symmetric hyperbolic systems on a half-plane. For a class of stable boundary conditions, we derive transformed boundary conditions and prove the stability of the corresponding half-plane problem. Third, we extend the stability analysis to rectangular elastic waveguides, and demonstrate the stability of the discrete PML.

    Building on high order summation-by-parts operators, we derive high order accurate and strictly stable finite difference approximations for second order time-dependent hyperbolic systems on bounded domains. Natural and mixed boundary conditions are imposed weakly using the simultaneous approximation term method. Dirichlet boundary conditions are imposed strongly by injection. By constructing continuous strict energy estimates and analogous discrete strict energy estimates, we prove strict stability.

    Abstract [en]

    Experiences from using a higher order accurate finite difference multiblock solver to compute the time dependent flow over a cavity is summarized. The work has been carried out as part of a work in a European project called IDIHOM in a collaboration between the Swedish Defense Research Agency (FOI) and University of Linköping (LiU). The higher order code is based on Summation By Parts operators combined with the Simultaneous Approximation Term approach for boundary and interface conditions. The spatial accuracy of the code is verified by calculations over a cyclinder by monitoring the decay of the errors of known wall quantities as the grid is refined. The focus is on the validation for a test case of transonic flow over a rectangular cavity with hybrid RANS/LES calculations. The results are compared to reference numerical results from a second order finite volume code as well as with experimental results with a good overall agreement between the results.

    A global time integration approach for realistic unsteady flow computations2016Conference paper (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    A novel time integration approach is explored for unsteady flow computations. It is a multi-block formulation in time where one solves for all time levels within a block simultaneously. The time discretization within a block is based on the summation-by-parts (SBP) technique in time combined with the simultaneous-approximation-term (SAT) technique for imposing the initial condition. The approach is implicit, unconditionally stable and can be made high order accurate in time. The implicit system is solved by a dual time stepping technique. The technique has been implemented in a flow solver for unstructured grids and applied to an unsteady flow problem with vortex shedding over a cylinder. Four time integration approaches being 2nd to 5th order accurate in time are evaluated and compared to the conventional 2nd order backward difference (BDF2) method and a 4th order diagonally implicit Runge-Kutta scheme (ESDIRK64). The obtained orders of accuracy are higher than expected and correspond to the accuracy in the interior of the blocks, up to 8th order accuracy is obtained. The influence on the accuracy from the size of the time blocks is small. Smaller blocks are computationally more efficient though, and the efficiency increases with increased accuracy of the SBP operator and reduced size of time steps. The most accurate scheme, with a small time step and block size, is approximately as efficient as the ESDIRK64 scheme. There is a significant potential for improvements ranging from convergence acceleration techniques in dual time, alternative initialization of time blocks, and by introducing smaller time blocks based on alternative SBP operators.

    The Influence of Viscous Operator and Wall Boundary Conditions on the Accuracy of the Navier-Stokes Equations2013In: AIAA Aerospace Sciences - Fluid Sciences Event, 2013, p. 1-15Conference paper (Other academic)
    Abstract [en]

    The discretization of the viscous operator in an edge-based flow solver for unstructured grids has been investigated. A compact discretization of the Laplace and thin-layer operators in the viscous terms is used with two different wall boundary conditions. Furthermore, a wide discretization of the same operators is investigated. The resulting numerical operators are all formally second order accurate in space; the wide operator has higher truncation errors. The operators are implemented weakly using a penalty formulation and are shown to be stable for a scalar model problem with given constraints on the penalty coefficients. The different operators are applied to a set of grid convergence test cases for laminar flow in two dimensions up to a large-scale three dimensional turbulent flow problem. The operators converge to the same solutions as the grids are refined with one exception where the wide operator converges to a solution with higher drag. The 2nd compact discretization, being locally more accurate at a wall boundary than the original 1st compact operator, reduces the grid dependency somewhat for most test cases. The wide operator performs very well and leads for most test cases to results with minimum spread between coarsest and finest grids. For one test case though, the wide operator has a negative influence on the steady state convergence.

    Stable, High Order Accurate Adaptive Schemes for Long Time, Highly Intermittent Geophysics Problems2013Report (Other academic)
    Abstract [en]

    Many geophysical phenomena are characterized by properties that evolve over a wide range of scales which introduce difficulties when attempting to model these features in one computational method. We have developed a high-order finite difference method for the elastic wave equation that is able to efficiently handle varying temporal scales in a single, stand-alone framework. We apply this method to earthquake cycle models characterized by extremely long interseismic periods interspersed with abrupt, short periods of dynamic rupture. Through the use of summation-by-parts operators and weak enforcement of boundary conditions we derive a provably stable discretization. Time stepping is achieved through the implicit θ-method which allows us to take large time steps during the intermittent period between earthquakes and adapts appropriately to fully resolve rupture.

    Accuracy of Stable, High-order Finite Difference Methods for Hyperbolic Systems with Non-smooth Wave Speeds2019In: Journal of Scientific Computing, ISSN 0885-7474, E-ISSN 1573-7691, Vol. 81, no 3, p. 2356-2387Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    We derive analytic solutions to the scalar and vector advection equation with variable coefficients in one spatial dimension using Laplace transform methods. These solutions are used to investigate how accuracy and stability are influenced by the presence of discontinuous wave speeds when applying high-order-accurate, skew-symmetric finite difference methods designed for smooth wave speeds. The methods satisfy a summation-by-parts rule with weak enforcement of boundary conditions and formal order of accuracy equal to 2, 3, 4 and 5. We study accuracy, stability and convergence rates for linear wave speeds that are (a) constant, (b) non-constant but smooth, (c) continuous with a discontinuous derivative, and (d) constant with a jump discontinuity. Cases (a) and (b) correspond to smooth wave speeds and yield stable schemes and theoretical convergence rates. Non-smooth wave speeds [cases (c) and (d)], however, reveal reductions in theoretical convergence rates and in the latter case, the presence of an instability.

    The order of accuracy of the node-centered finite volume methods is analyzed, and the analysis is based on an exact derivation of the numerical errors in one dimension. The accuracy for various types of grids are considered. Numerical simulations and analysis are performed for both a hyperbolic and a elliptic case, and the results agree. The impact of weakly imposed boundary conditions is analyzed and verified numerically. We show that the error contribution from the primal and dual grid can be treated separately.

    Exact non-reflecting boundary conditions for a linear incompletely parabolic system in one dimension have been studied. The system is a model for the linearized compressible Navier-Stokes equations, but is less complicated which allows for a detailed analysis without approximations. It is shown that well-posedness is a fundamental property of the exact non-reflecting boundary conditions. By using summation by parts operators for the numerical approximation and a weak boundary implementation, it is also shown that energy stability follows automatically.

    We derive a method to locally change the order of accuracy of finite difference schemes that approximate the second derivative. The derivation is based on summation-by-parts operators, which are connected at interfaces using penalty terms. At such interfaces, the numerical solution has a double representation, with one representation in each domain. We merge this double representation into a single one, yielding a new scheme with unique solution values in all grid points. The resulting scheme is proven to be stable, accurate and dual consistent.

    Discretely Conservative Finite-Difference Formulations for Nonlinear Conservation Laws in Split Form: Theory and Boundary Conditions2013In: Journal of Computational Physics, ISSN 0021-9991, E-ISSN 1090-2716, Vol. 234, p. 353-375Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    The Lax-Wendroff theorem stipulates that a discretely conservative operator is necessary to accurately capture discontinuities. The discrete operator, however, need not be derived from the divergence form of the continuous equations. Indeed, conservation law equations that are split into linear combinations of the divergence and product rule form and then discretized using any diagonal-norm skew-symmetric summation-by-parts (SBP) spatial operator, yield discrete operators that are conservative. Furthermore, split-form, discretely conservation operators can be derived for periodic or finite-domain SBP spatial operators of any order. Examples are presented of a fourth-order, SBP finite-difference operator with second-order boundary closures. Sixth- and eighth-order constructions are derived, and are supplied in an accompanying text file.
