  • Guaranteed error bounds on pointwise quantities of interest for transient viscodynamics Problems
    Computational Mechanics, 2012
    Co-Authors: Julien Waeytens, Ludovic Chamoin, Pierre Ladevéze
    Abstract:

    A new method is developed to obtain guaranteed error bounds on pointwise quantities of interest for linear transient viscodynamics Problems. The calculation of strict error bounds is based on the concept of “constitutive relation error” (CRE) and the solution of an Adjoint Problem. The central and original point of this work is the treatment of the singularity in space and time introduced by the loading of the Adjoint Problem. Hence, the Adjoint solution is decomposed into two parts: (i) an analytical part determined from Green’s functions; (ii) a residual part approximated with classical numerical tools (finite element method, Newmark integration scheme). The capabilities and the limits of the proposed approach are analyzed on a 2D example.

  • Strict and practical bounds through a non-intrusive and goal-oriented error estimation method for linear viscoelasticity Problems
    Finite Elements in Analysis and Design, 2009
    Co-Authors: Ludovic Chamoin, Pierre Ladevéze
    Abstract:

    In this work, we set up a non-intrusive procedure that yields for strict and high-quality error bounds of quantities of interest in linear viscoelasticity Problems solved by means of the finite element method (FEM). The goal-oriented error estimation approach uses the concept of dissipation error and classical duality techniques involving the solution of an Adjoint Problem. The non-intrusive feature of this approach is achieved by introducing enrichment functions, via a partition of unity, when solving the Adjoint Problem numerically (handbook techniques), so that the discretization parameters defined for the primal Problem can be reused. The resulting local error estimation method is thus highly effective, easy to implement in a finite element code, and it enables to consider discretization error on truly pointwise quantities of interest.

  • A non-intrusive method for the calculation of strict and efficient bounds of calculated outputs of interest in linear viscoelasticity Problems
    Computer Methods in Applied Mechanics and Engineering, 2008
    Co-Authors: Ludovic Chamoin, Pierre Ladevéze
    Abstract:

    This paper presents a non-intrusive method which yields strict and high-quality error bounds of calculated quantities of interest in structural Problems solved by the finite element method. The focus is on linear viscoelasticity Problems described through internal variables. In order to solve the Adjoint Problem in a non-intrusive way, we use handbook techniques involving enrichment functions introduced through the partition of unity method (PUM). Then, the mesh and operators used to calculate the reference Problem can be reused. Such a procedure also enables one to address error estimation on pointwise quantities of interest, although this implies dealing with infinite-energy Green functions.

  • A non-intrusive approach of goal-oriented error estimation for evolution Problems solved by the Finite Element Method
    Revue Européenne de Mécanique Numérique European Journal of Computational Mechanics, 2008
    Co-Authors: Ludovic Chamoin, Pierre Ladevéze
    Abstract:

    In this article, we set up a non-intrusive procedure that yields for strict and highquality error bounds of quantities of interest in linear viscoelasticity Problems solved by means of the Finite Element Method. The non-intrusive feature is achieved by introducing, via a partition of unity, enrichment functions in the solution of the Adjoint Problem (handbook techniques). The resulting goal-oriented error estimation method is thus easy to implement in a FE code and enables to consider trully pointwise quantities of interest.

  • On the solvability conditions for the diffusion equation with convection terms.
    Communications on Pure and Applied Mathematics, 2012
    Co-Authors: Vitaly Volpert, Vitali Vougalter
    Abstract:

    Linear second order elliptic equation describing heat or mass di®usion and convection on a given velocity ¯eld is considered in R3. The corresponding operator L may not satisfy the Fredholm property. In this case, solvability conditions for the equation Lu = f are not known. In this work, we derive solvability conditions in H2(R3) for the non self-Adjoint Problem by relating it to a self-Adjoint SchrÄodinger type operator, for which solvability con- ditions are obtained in our previous work

  • On a Goal-Oriented Version of the Proper Generalized Decomposition Method
    Journal of Scientific Computing, 2019
    Co-Authors: Kenan Kergrene, Ludovic Chamoin, Marc Laforest, Serge Prudhomme
    Abstract:

    In this paper, we introduce, analyze, and numerically illustrate a goal-oriented version of the Proper Generalized Decomposition method. The objective is to derive a reduced-order formulation such that the accuracy in given quantities of interest is increased when compared to a standard Proper Generalized Decomposition method. Traditional goal-oriented methods usually compute the solution of an Adjoint Problem following the calculation of the primal solution for error estimation and adaptation. In the present work, we propose to solve the Adjoint Problem first, based on a reduced approach, in order to extract estimates of the quantities of interest and use this information to constrain the reduced primal Problem. The resulting reduced-order constrained solution is thus capable of delivering more accurate estimates of the quantities of interest. The performance of the proposed approach is illustrated on several numerical examples.
