We prove a long-time stability result for the finite element in space, linear extrapolated Crank-Nicolson in time discretization of the Navier-Stokes equations (NSE). From this result and a numerical experiment, we show the importance of discrete mass conservation in long-time simulations of the NSE. That is, we show that using elements that strongly enforce mass conservation can provide significantly more accurate solutions over long times, compared to those that enforce it weakly.

On the stability at all times of linearly extrapolated BDF2 timestepping for multiphysics incompressible flow problems
AKBAŞ, MERAL; Kaya, Serap; Kaya Merdan, Songül (2017-07-01)
We prove long-time stability of linearly extrapolated BDF2 (BDF2LE) timestepping methods, together with finite element spatial discretizations, for incompressible Navier-Stokes equations (NSE) and related multiphysics problems. For the NSE, Boussinesq, and magnetohydrodynamics schemes, we prove unconditional long time L-2 stability, provided external forces (and sources) are uniformly bounded in time. We also provide numerical experiments to compare stability of BDF2LE to linearly extrapolated Crank-Nicolso...
Least-squares finite element solution of Euler equations with adaptive mesh refinement
Akargün, Hayri Yiğit; Sert, Cüneyt; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2012)
Least-squares finite element method (LSFEM) is employed to simulate 2-D and axisymmetric flows governed by the compressible Euler equations. Least-squares formulation brings many advantages over classical Galerkin finite element methods. For non-self-adjoint systems, LSFEM result in symmetric positive-definite matrices which can be solved efficiently by iterative methods. Additionally, with a unified formulation it can work in all flight regimes from subsonic to supersonic. Another advantage is that, the me...
A Hilbert Space of Probability Mass Functions and Applications on the Sum-Product Algorithm
Bayramoglu, Muhammet Fatih; Yılmaz, Ali Özgür (2008-09-05)
In this paper a Hilbert space structure of probability mass functions (PMF) will be presented. The tools provided by the Hilbert space, specifically the norm and the inner product, may be useful while analyzing and improving the sum-product algorithm in many aspects. Our approach provides a metric distance between PMFs and a new point of a view of the log-likelihood ratio (LLR) such that the LLR representation is nothing but a Hilbert space representation.
MUTUAL COUPLING EFFECTS OF FINITE RECTANGULAR PHASED-ARRAYS
YAVUZ, H; BUYUKDURA, OM (1994-04-14)
A rigorous integral equation formulation for the analysis of a phased array of flangemounted waveguide apertures is given for a finite number of elements and nonuniform spacings. The resulting set of ihtegrd equations is reduced to a matrix equation called the coupling matrix which relates the coefficients of all the modes in all the waveguides to one another. The solution then yields the dominant mode reflection coefficient, coefficients of scattered modes and hence the field in each waveguide. The blockTo...
The Hilbert Space of probability mass functions and applications on probabilistic Inference
Bayramoğlu, Muhammet Fatih; Yılmaz, Ali Özgür; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2011)
The Hilbert space of probability mass functions (pmf) is introduced in this thesis. A factorization method for multivariate pmfs is proposed by using the tools provided by the Hilbert space of pmfs. The resulting factorization is special for two reasons. First, it reveals the algebraic relations between the involved random variables. Second, it determines the conditional independence relations between the random variables. Due to the first property of the resulting factorization, it can be shown that channe...
