Numerical Analysis of a Simplified Unified Model for Viscoelastic Fluids and Elastic Solids

We address a simplified time-dependent parabolic problem that arises when modeling both viscoelastic fluids and elastic solids in a unified framework. A priori estimates are obtained for the continuous problem. Then implicit and semi-explicit (EVSS) time d ...

Error assessment of an adaptive finite elements-neural networks method for an elliptic parametric PDE

Alexandre Caboussat, Marco Picasso, Maude Girardin

We present a finite elements-neural network approach for the numerical approximation of parametric partial differential equations. The algorithm generates training data from finite element simulations, and uses a data -driven (supervised) feedforward neura ...

Anisotropic Adaptive Finite Elements for a p-Laplacian Problem

Marco Picasso, Paride Passelli

The p-Laplacian problem -del & sdot; ((mu + |del u|(p-2))del u) = f is considered, where mu is a given positive number. An anisotropic a posteriori residual-based error estimator is presented. The error estimator is shown to be equivalent, up to higher ord ...

A cut-cell method for the numerical simulation of 3D multiphase flows with strong interfacial effects

Alexandre Caboussat, Alexandre Masserey, Marco Picasso, Julien Hess

We present a numerical model for the approximation of multiphase flows with free surfaces and strong interfacial effects. The model relies on the multiphase incompressible Navier-Stokes equations, and includes surface tension effects on the interfaces betw ...

Anisotropic Adaptive Finite Elements for an Elliptic Problem with Strongly Varying Diffusion Coefficient

Marco Picasso, Samuel Dubuis, Paride Passelli

The elliptic problem - div(mu del u) = f is considered, where mu > 0 is smooth but strongly varying. Anisotropic a posteriori error estimates are derived, the effectivity index being bounded above and below by two constants independent of the data f, mu, t ...

A splitting method for the numerical simulation of free surface flows with sediment deposition and resuspension

Marco Picasso, Arwa Mrad

We present a numerical model for the simulation of 3D sediment transport in a Newtonian flow with free surfaces. The Navier-Stokes equations are coupled with the transport, deposition, and resuspension of the particle concentrations, and a volume-of-fluid ...

An anisotropic adaptive method for the numerical approximation of orthogonal maps

Alexandre Caboussat, Marco Picasso, Dimitrios Gourzoulidis

Orthogonal maps are two-dimensional mappings that are solutions of the so-called origami problem obtained when folding a paper. These mappings are piecewise linear, and the discontinuities of their gradient form a singular set composed of straight lines re ...

A mixture model for a dilute dispersion of gas in a liquid flow: Mathematical analysis and application to aluminium electrolysis

Marco Picasso, Jacques Rappaz, Emile Tryphon Pierre Soutter

A mixture model to take into account the flow of small carbon dioxide bubbles dissolved in a liquid is presented. The model describes the evolution of the velocity fields (mixture and gas), the pressure and the volume fraction of gas. The system of equatio ...
