Efficient scalable solvers for incompressible flow problems
Mitro, Erik ; Hron, Jaroslav (advisor) ; Rozložník, Miroslav (referee)
In this thesis, the different solution methods for saddle-point systems aris- ing from fluid dynamics are studied. The main emphasis is on Krylov subspace methods with effective preconditioning techniques for saddle-point systems ob- tained from finite element discretization of the Navier-Stokes equations. Two preconditioning techniques are presented: pressure-convection-diffusion precon- ditioning (PCD) and least-square commutator preconditioning (LSC). Both pre- conditioners are validated on two benchmarks: lid-driven cavity and flow around cylinder. From the computational point of view, we focus on comparing the performance of used solvers, with emphasis on our implementation of PCD pre- conditioning. All numerical simulations are performed by software Firedrake. 1
Periodic solutions of ordinary differential equations
Mitro, Erik ; Janovský, Vladimír (advisor) ; Felcman, Jiří (referee)
The thesis deals with periodic solutions of ordinary differential equations and examining of their stability. We are mainly limited to scalar differential equations. The first chapter is devoted to the stability of periodic solutions that is related to the Poincaré map. The aim is to decide on the asymptotic stability/instability of the fixed point of this map. To this end we need to compute derivatives of the Poincaré map of the first order or, possibly, of the higher orders. In the second chapter we introduce the concept of bifurcation and we examine the population model. In the third chapter we briefly mention the Van der Pol oscillator i.e the system of two equations. We illustrate the theory by examples.
