The pressure equation is a nonlinear parabolic equation, the concentration is defined by a convection-diffusion equation and the saturations of different components are stated by nonlinear convection-diffusion equations. The transport pressure appears in the concentration equation and saturation equations in the form of Darcy velocity, and controls their processes. The flow equation is solved by the conservative mixed volume element and the accuracy is improved one order for approximating Darcy velocity. The method of characteristic mixed volume element is applied to solve the concentration, where the diffusion is discretized by a mixed volume element method and the convection is treated by the method of characteristics. The characteristics can confirm strong computational stability at sharp fronts and it can avoid numerical dispersion and nonphysical oscillation. The scheme can adopt a large step while its numerical results have small time-truncation error and high order of accuracy. The mixed volume element method has the law of conservation on every element for the diffusion and it can obtain numerical solutions of the concentration and adjoint vectors. It is most important in numerical simulation to ensure the physical conservative nature. The saturation different components are obtained by the method of characteristic fractional step difference. The computational work is shortened greatly by decomposing a three-dimensional problem into three successive one-dimensional problems and it is completed easily by using the algorithm of speedup. Using the theory and technique of a priori estimates of differential equations, we derive an optimal second order estimates in 12 norm. Numerical examples are given to show the effectiveness and practicability and the method is testified as a powerful tool to solve t展开更多

To solve this kind of models, the modified Laplace finite element scheme and the alternating direction finite element scheme are established for the system of patrical differential equations. Besides, the finite difference method is utilized for the ordinary differential equation in the models. Moreover, by the theory and technique of prior estimates for the differential equations, the convergence analyses and the optimal L2- norm error estimates are demonstrated.展开更多

We prove that the best error estimate in the L2 norm of the finite element solution is of second order, which can not be improved generally. The main ingredients are the saturation condition established for these elements and an identity for the error in the energy norm of the finite element solution. The result holds for most of the popular lower order finite element methods in the literature including: the Powell-Sabin C1 -P2 macro element, the nonconforming Morley element, the C1 -Q2 macro element, the nonconforming rectangle Morley element, and the nonconforming incomplete biquadratic element. In addition, the result actually applies to the nonconforming Adini element, the nonconforming Fraeijs de Veubeke elements, and the nonconforming Wang- Xu element and the Wang-Shi-Xu element provided that the saturation condition holds for them. This result solves one long standing problem in the literature: can the L2 norm error estimate of lower order finite element methods of the fourth order problem be two order higher than the error estimate in the energy norm?展开更多
