Unconditionally optimal error Estimate of a linearized Second-order Fully Discrete Finite Element Method for the bioconvection flows with concentration dependent viscosity

Abstract

In this paper, the coupled and decoupled BDF2 finite element discrete schemes are obtained for the time-dependent bioconvection flows problem with concentration dependent viscosity, which consisting of the Navier-Stokes equation coupled with a linear convection-diffusion equation modeling the concentration of microorganisms in a culture fluid. The unconditionally optimal error estimate for the velocity and concentration in $L^2$-norm and $H^1$-norm are proved by using finite element approximations in space and finite differences in time. Finally, the numerical results for different viscosity are showed to support the theoretical analysis.

$L^p$-Convergence Rate of Backward Euler Schemes for Monotone SDEs

We give a unified method to derive the strong convergence rate of the backward Euler scheme for monotone SDEs in $L^p(Ω)$-norm, with general $p \ge 4$. The results are applied to the backward Euler scheme of SODEs with polynomial growth coefficients. We also generalize the argument to the Galerkin-based backward Euler scheme of SPDEs with polynomial growth coefficients driven by multiplicative trace-class noise.

Geometric integrators for adiabatically closed simple thermodynamic systems

A variational formulation for non-equilibrium thermodynamics was developed by Gay-Balmaz and Yoshimura. In a recent article, the first two authors of the present paper introduced partially cosymplectic structures as a geometric framework for thermodynamic systems, recovering the evolution equations obtained variationally. In this paper, we develop a discrete variational principle for adiabatically closed simple thermodynamic systems, which can be utilised to construct numerical integrators for the dynamics of such systems. The effectiveness of our method is illustrated with several examples.
