Multiscale or multiphysics partial differential equations are used to model a wide range of physical systems with various applications, e.g. from material and natural science to problems in biology or engineering. When the ratio between the smallest scale ...
Discontinuous Galerkin methods have desirable properties, which make them suitable for the com- putation of wave problems. Being parallelizable and hp-adaptive makes them attractive for the simulation of large-scale tsunami propagation. In order to retriev ...
Understanding the plasma dynamics in tokamaks is of fundamental importance to reliably predict the performances of future fusion devices. Because of the complex phenomena at play, state-of-the-art simulation codes are needed to investigate the plasma dynam ...
In this thesis, we consider the numerical approximation of high order geometric Partial Differential Equations (PDEs). We first consider high order PDEs defined on surfaces in the 3D space that are represented by single-patch tensor product NURBS. Then, we ...
This paper presents a novel class of preconditioners for the iterative solution of the sequence of symmetric positive-definite linear systems arising from the numerical discretization of transient parabolic and selfadjoint partial differential equations. T ...
Modeling wave propagation in highly heterogeneous media is of prime importance in engineering applications of diverse nature such as seismic inversion, medical imaging or the design of composite materials. The numerical approximation of such multiscale phy ...
This paper is devoted to determining a space-dependent source term in an inverse problem of the time-fractional diffusion equation. We use a fully-discrete method based on a finite difference scheme in time and a local discontinuous Galerkin method (LDG) i ...
We revisit the problem of solving two-player zero- sum games in the decentralized setting. We pro- pose a simple algorithmic framework that simulta- neously achieves the best rates for honest regret as well as adversarial regret, and in addition resolves t ...
In this paper we consider, from the numerical point of view, a thermoelastic diffusion porous problem. This is written as a coupled system of two hyperbolic equations, for the displacement and porosity fields, and two parabolic equations, for the temperatu ...
We explore the use of radial basis functions (RBF) in the weighted essentially non-oscillatory (WENO) reconstruction process used to solve hyperbolic conservation laws, resulting in a numerical method of arbitrarily high order to solve problems with discon ...
