Numerical analysis of convection-dominated transport problems are challenging because of dual characteristics of the governing equation. In the finite element method, a strategy is to modify the test function to weight more in the upwind direction. This is called as the Petrov-Galerkin method. In this paper, both N+1 and N+2 Petrov-Galerkin methods are applied to transport problems at high grid Peclet number. Frequency fitting algorithm is used to obtain optimal levels of N+2 upwinding, and the results are discussed. Also, a new Petrov-Galerkin method, named as "Optimal Test Function Petrov-Galerkin Method," is proposed in this paper. The test function of this numerical method changes its shape depending upon relative strength of the convection to the diffusion. A numerical experiment is carried out to demonstrate the performance of the proposed method.

A finite element model for simulating gradually and rapidly varied unsteady flow in open channel is developed based on dynamic wave equation using Petrov-Galerkin method. A matrix stability analysis shows the selective damping of short wave lengths and excellent phase accuracies achived by Petrov-Galerkin method. Whereas the Preissmann scheme displays less selective damping and poor phase accuracies, and Bubnov-Galerkin method shows nondissipative characteristics whicn causes a divergence problem in short wave length. The analysis also shows that the Petrov-Galerkin method displays the desirable combination of selective damping of high frequency progressive waves over a wide range of Courant number and good phase accuracy at low Courant number. Therefore, the Petrov-Galerkin can be effectively applied to gradually and rapidly varied unsteady flow.

In this paper, we develop discontinuous Galerkin methods with penalty terms, namaly symmetric interior penalty Galerkin methods to solve nonlinear parabolic equations. By introducing an appropriate projection of u onto finite element spaces, we prove the optimal convergence of the fully discrete discontinuous Galerkin approximations in ${\ell}^2(L^2)$ normed space.

In this paper, we adopt discontinuous Galerkin methods with penalty terms namely symmetric interior penalty Galerkin methods, to solve nonlinear viscoelasticity type equations. We construct finite element spaces and define an appropriate projection of u and prove its optimal convergence. We construct extrapolated fully discrete discontinuous Galerkin approximations for the viscoelasticity type equation and prove ${\ell}^{\infty}(L^2)$ optimal error estimates in both spatial direction and temporal direction.

본 연구에서는 신속표층유속 산정과 관련된 취송류 Data Table 구축을 위한 황해-동지나해 3차원 모델개발을 다룬다. 일반적으로 3차원모형을 예보모형으로 사용하기 위해서는 모형의 경제성이 가장 중요한 요소로 부각된다. 3차원모형인 경우 1970년대 초반부터 개발되어 왔고 크게 다충모형과 다충격자모형, Galerkin 함수이용모델로 나눌수 있다. 본 연구에서는 3차원모형중에서 경제성이 뛰어나나다고 알려진 Galerkin 함수이용 모형(Galerkin Function model)을 사용하기로 하고 경제성 제고를 위한 부가적인 노력으로 시간 수치적분에 강(1994)이 개발한 바 있는 유사변환기법을 이용한 Galerkin-FEM모형에 근간을 둔다.

We propose and analyze spectral and pseudo-spectral Jacobi-Galerkin approaches for weakly singular Volterra integral equations (VIEs). We provide a rigorous error analysis for spectral and pseudo-spectral Jacobi-Galerkin methods, which show that the errors of the approximate solution decay exponentially in $L^{\infty}$ norm and weighted $L^2$-norm. The numerical examples are given to illustrate the theoretical results.

A nonlinear Galerkin method for the Burgers equation is considered. Due to the lack of the divergence free condition, the nonlinear term is treated differently compared to that of the Navier-Stokes equations. Strong convergence results are proved for the nonlinear Galerkin method.

In this paper, we develop a symmetric Galerkin method with interior penalty terms to construct fully discrete approximations of the solution for nonlinear Sobolev equations. To analyze the convergence of discontinuous Galerkin approximations, we introduce an appropriate projection and derive the optimal $L^2$ error estimates.

In this paper, we adopt symmetric interior penalty discontinuous Galerkin (SIPG) methods to approximate the solution of nonlinear viscoelasticity-type equations. We construct finite element space which consists of piecewise continuous polynomials. We introduce an appropriate elliptic-type projection and prove its approximation properties. We construct semidiscrete discontinuous Galerkin approximations and prove the optimal convergence in $L^2$ normed space.

In this paper, we construct fully discrete discontinuous Galerkin approximations to the solution of linear Sobolev equations. We apply a symmetric interior penalty method which has an interior penalty term to compensate the continuity on the edges of interelements. The optimal convergence of the fully discrete discontinuous Galerkin approximations in ${\ell}^{\infty}(L^2)$ norm is proved.
