  • Estimation of the Advection effects induced by surface heterogeneities in the surface energy budget
    Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2016
    Co-Authors: J. Cuxart, B. Wrenger, D. Martínez-villagrasa, J. Reuder, M.o. Jonassen, M.a. Jiménez, M. Lothon, F. Lohou, O. Hartogensis, J. Dünnermann
    Abstract:

    Abstract. The effect of terrain heterogeneities in one-point measurements is a continuous subject of discussion. Here we focus on the order of magnitude of the Advection Term in the equation of the evolution of temperature as generated by documented terrain heterogeneities and we estimate its importance as a Term in the surface energy budget (SEB), for which the turbulent fluxes are computed using the eddy-correlation method. The heterogeneities are estimated from satellite and model fields for scales near 1 km or broader, while the smaller scales are estimated through direct measurements with remotely piloted aircraft and thermal cameras and also by high-resolution modelling. The variability of the surface temperature fields is not found to decrease clearly with increasing resolution, and consequently the Advection Term becomes more important as the scales become finer. The Advection Term provides non-significant values to the SEB at scales larger than a few kilometres. In contrast, surface heterogeneities at the metre scale yield large values of the Advection, which are probably only significant in the first centimetres above the ground. The motions that seem to contribute significantly to the Advection Term in the SEB equation in our case are roughly those around the hectometre scales.

  • computational design for long Term numerical integration of the equations of fluid motion
    Journal of Computational Physics, 1997
    Co-Authors: Akio Arakawa
    Abstract:

    The integral constraints on quadratic quantities of physical importance, such as conservation of mean kinetic energy and mean square vorticity, will not be maintained in finite difference analogues of the equation of motion for two-dimensional incompressible flow, unless the finite difference Jacobian expression for the Advection Term is restricted to a form which properly represents the interaction between grid points, as derived in this paper. It is shown that the derived form of the finite difference Jacobian prevents nonlinear computational instability and thereby permits long-Term numerical integrations.

  • Design and analysis of finite volume methods for elliptic equations with oblique derivatives; application to Earth gravity field modelling
    Journal of Computational Physics, 2019
    Co-Authors: Jérôme Droniou, Matej Medl’a, Karol Mikula
    Abstract:

    Abstract We develop and analyse finite volume methods for the Poisson problem with boundary conditions involving oblique derivatives. We design a generic framework, for finite volume discretisations of such models, in which internal fluxes are not assumed to have a specific form, but only to satisfy some (usual) coercivity and consistency properties. The oblique boundary conditions are split into a normal component, which directly appears in the flux balance on control volumes touching the domain boundary, and a tangential component which is managed as an Advection Term on the boundary. This Advection Term is discretised using a finite volume method based on a centred discretisation (to ensure optimal rates of convergence) and stabilised using a vanishing boundary viscosity. A convergence analysis, based on the 3rd Strang Lemma [9] , is conducted in this generic finite volume framework, and yields the expected O ( h ) optimal convergence rate in discrete energy norm. We then describe a specific choice of numerical fluxes, based on a generalised hexahedral meshing of the computational domain. These fluxes are a corrected version of fluxes originally introduced in [29] . We identify mesh regularity parameters that ensure that these fluxes satisfy the required coercivity and consistency properties. The theoretical rates of convergence are illustrated by an extensive set of 3D numerical tests, including some conducted with two variants of the proposed scheme. A test involving real-world data measuring the disturbing potential in Earth gravity modelling over Slovakia is also presented.

  • Semi-implicit Second Order Accurate Finite Volume Method for Advection-Diffusion Level Set Equation
    Finite Volumes for Complex Applications VII-Elliptic Parabolic and Hyperbolic Problems, 2014
    Co-Authors: Martin Balažovjech, Peter Frolkovič, Richard Frolkovič, Karol Mikula
    Abstract:

    We present a second order accurate finite volume method for level set equation describing the motion in normal direction with the speed depending on external properties and curvature. A convenient combination of a Crank-Nicolson type of the time discretization for diffusion Term [1] and an Inflow Implicit and Outflow Explicit scheme [6] for Advection Term is used. Numerical experiments for an example with the exact solution derived in this paper and for examples motivated by modeling of fire propagation in forests are presented.

  • Stability of nonlinear Vlasov-Poisson equilibria through spectral deformation and Fourier-Hermite expansion.
    Physical review. E Statistical nonlinear and soft matter physics, 2011
    Co-Authors: Evangelos Siminos, Didier Bénisti, Laurent Gremillet
    Abstract:

    We study the stability of spatially periodic, nonlinear Vlasov-Poisson equilibria as an eigenproblem in a Fourier-Hermite basis (in the space and velocity variables, respectively) of finite dimension, N. When the Advection Term in the Vlasov equation is dominant, the convergence with N of the eigenvalues is rather slow, limiting the applicability of the method. We use the method of spectral deformation introduced by Crawford and Hislop [Ann. Phys. (NY) 189, 265 (1989)] to selectively damp the continuum of neutral modes associated with the Advection Term, thus accelerating convergence. We validate and benchmark the performance of our method by reproducing the kinetic dispersion relation results for linear (spatially homogeneous) equilibria. Finally, we study the stability of a periodic Bernstein-Greene-Kruskal mode with multiple phase-space vortices, compare our results with numerical simulations of the Vlasov-Poisson system, and show that the initial unstable equilibrium may evolve to different asymptotic states depending on the way it was perturbed.
