This thesis studies a projection-based variational multiscale (VMS) method based on a linearly extrapolated second order backward difference formula (BDF2) to simulate the incompressible time-dependent Navier-Stokes equations (NSE). The method concerns adding stabilization based on projection acting only on the small scales. To give a basic notion of the projection-based VMS method, a three-scale VMS method is explained. Also, the principles of the projection-based VMS stabilization are provided. By using this stabilization scheme for spatial discretization and the linearly extrapolated BDF2 for time discretization of NSE, the fully discrete approximation of them is obtained. The existence, uniqueness, unconditional stability and convergence of the approximate solutions are proven. Also, to verify the theoretical findings, numerical experiments which indicate the efficiency of the proposed scheme are presented.

Periodic solutions and stability of differential equations with piecewise constant argument of generalized type Büyükadalı, Cemil; Akhmet, Marat; Department of Mathematics (2009) In this thesis, we study periodic solutions and stability of differential equations with piecewise constant argument of generalized type. These equations can be divided into three main classes: differential equations with retarded, alternately advanced-retarded, and state-dependent piecewise constant argument of generalized type. First, using the method of small parameter due to Poincaré, the existence and stability of periodic solutions of quasilinear differential equations with retarded piecewise constant...
Inverse problems for a semilinear heat equation with memory Kaya, Müjdat; Çelebi, Okay; Department of Mathematics (2005) In this thesis, we study the existence and uniqueness of the solutions of the inverse problems to identify the memory kernel k and the source term h, derived from First, we obtain the structural stability for k, when p=1 and the coefficient p, when g( )= . To identify the memory kernel, we find an operator equation after employing the half Fourier transformation. For the source term identification, we make use of the direct application of the final overdetermination conditions.
Analysis of double-negative materials with surface integral equations and the multilevel fast multipole algorithm Ergül, Özgür Salih (2011-08-13) We present a fast and accurate analysis of double-negative materials (DNMs) with surface integral equations and the multilevel fast multipole algorithm (MLFMA). DNMs are commonly used as simplified models of metamaterials at resonance frequencies and are suitable to be formulated with surface integral equations. However, realistic metamaterials and their models are usually very large with respect to wavelength and their accurate solutions require fast algorithms, such as MLFMA. We consider iterative solutio...
Generalisation of the Lagrange multipliers for variational iterations applied to systems of differential equations ALTINTAN, DERYA; Uğur, Ömür (2011-11-01) In this paper, a new approach to the variational iteration method is introduced to solve systems of first-order differential equations. Since higher-order differential equations can almost always be converted into a first-order system of equations, the proposed method is still applicable to a wide range of differential equations. This generalised approach, unlike the classical method, uses restricted variations only for nonlinear terms by generalising the Lagrange multipliers. Consequently, this allows us t...
On the consistency of the solutions of the space fractional Schroumldinger equation (vol 53, 042105, 2012) Bayin, Selcuk S. (2012-08-01) Recently we have reanalyzed the consistency of the solutions of the space fractional Schroumldinger equation found in a piecewise manner, and showed that an exact and a proper treatment of the relevant integrals prove that they are consistent. In this comment, for clarity, we present additional information about the critical integrals and describe how their analytic continuation is accomplished.
