DG-IMEX stochastic Galerkin schemes for linear transport equation with random inputs and diffusive scalings (Q1691383): Difference between revisions

Kinetic theory connects the microscopic models with the macroscopic hydrodynamic models. The Knudsen number measures the ratio between the particle mean free path and a typical length scale. The equation becomes numerically stiff and requires expensive mesh sizes and time steps. To overcome this difficulty, it is known that asymptotic-preserving (AP) schemes can be designed to mimic the asymptotic transition from the kinetic equations to the hydrodynamic limit, in the discrete setting. For temporal and spatial discretizations, the explicit-implicit scheme under the micro-macro decomposition framework and the discontinuous Galerkin is applied. A rigorous proof of the stochastic asymptotic-preserving (SAP) is given. The accuracy and SAP of the method are examined on the numerical experiments.
