Differential-Algebraic Equations and Beyond: From Smooth to Nonsmooth Constrained Dynamical Systems
The present article presents a summarizing view at differential-algebraic
equations (DAEs) and analyzes how new application fields and corresponding
mathematical models lead to innovations both in theory and in numerical
analysis for this problem class. Recent numerical methods for nonsmooth
dynamical systems subject to unilateral contact and friction illustrate the
topicality of this development.Comment: Preprint of Book Chapte
A parallel nearly implicit time-stepping scheme
Across-the-space parallelism still remains the most mature, convenient and natural way to parallelize large scale problems. One of the major problems here is that implicit time stepping is often difficult to parallelize due to the structure of the system. Approximate implicit schemes have been suggested to circumvent the problem. These schemes have attractive stability properties and they are also very well parallelizable.\ud
The purpose of this article is to give an overall assessment of the parallelism of the method
Finite volume approach for the instationary Cosserat rod model describing the spinning of viscous jets
The spinning of slender viscous jets can be described asymptotically by
one-dimensional models that consist of systems of partial and ordinary
differential equations. Whereas the well-established string models possess only
solutions for certain choices of parameters and set-ups, the more sophisticated
rod model that can be considered as -regularized string is generally
applicable. But containing the slenderness ratio explicitely in the
equations complicates the numerical treatment. In this paper we present the
first instationary simulations of a rod in a rotational spinning process for
arbitrary parameter ranges with free and fixed jet end, for which the hitherto
investigations longed. So we close an existing gap in literature. The numerics
is based on a finite volume approach with mixed central, up- and down-winded
differences, the time integration is performed by stiff accurate Radau methods
