Abstract There are several difficulties in generalized/extended finite element methods (GFEM/XFEM) for moving interface problems. First, the GFEM/XFEM may be unstable in a sense that condition numbers of system matrices could be much bigger than those of standard FEM. Second, they may not be robust in that the condition numbers increase rapidly as interface curves approach edges of meshes. Furthermore, time stepping schemes need carrying out carefully since both enrichment functions and enriched nodes in the GFEM/XFEM vary in time. This paper is devoted to proposing the stable and robust GFEM/XFEM with effi- cient time stepping… More >

Abstract In this paper, we propose numerical methods for the Riesz space fractional advection-dispersion equations with delay (RFADED). We utilize the fractional backward differential formulas method of second order (FBDF2) and weighted shifted Grünwald difference (WSGD) operators to approximate the Riesz fractional derivative and present the finite difference method for the RFADED. Firstly, the FBDF2 and the shifted Grünwald methods are introduced. Secondly, based on the FBDF2 method and the WSGD operators, the finite difference method is applied to the problem. We also show that our numerical schemes are conditionally stable and convergent with the accuracy More >
