✦ Synopsis


The transient one-dimensional Burgers equation is solved by a mixed formulation of the Green element method (GEM) which is based essentially on the singular integral theory of the boundary element method (BEM). The GEM employs the fundamental solution of the term with the highest derivative to construct a system of discrete first-order non-linear equations in terms of the primary variable, the velocity, and its spatial derivative which are solved by a two-level generalized and a modified time discretization scheme and by the Newton-Raphson algorithm. We found that the two-level scheme with a weight of 0167 and the modified fully implicit scheme with a weight of 115 offered some marginal gains in accuracy. Three numerical examples which cover a wide range of flow regimes are used to demonstrate the capabilities of the present formulation. Improvement of the present formulation over an earlier BE formulation which uses a linearized operator of the differential equation is demonstrated.

The full adaptive multigrid method is based on the tri-tree grid generator. The solution of the Navier-Stokes equations is first found for a low Reynolds number. The velocity boundary conditions are then increased and the grid is adapted to the scaled solution. The scaled solution is then used as a

Our work is an extension of the previously proposed multivariant element. We assign this re®ned element as a compact mixed-order element in the sense that use of this element offers a much smaller bandwidth. The analysis is implemented on quadratic hexahedral elements with a view to analysing a thre
