Abstract: Developing robust simulation tools for problems involving multiple mathematical scales has been a subject of great interest in computational mathematics and engineering. A desirable feature to have in a numerical formulation for multiscale transient problems is to be able to employ different time-steps (multi-time-step coupling), and different time integrators and different numerical formulations (mixed methods) in different regions of the computational domain. We present two new monolithic multi-time-step mixed coupling methods for first-order transient systems. We shall employ unsteady advection-diffusion-reaction equation with linear decay as the model problem, which offers several unique challenges in terms of non-self-adjoint spatial operator and rich features in the solutions. We shall employ the dual Schur domain decomposition technique to handle the decomposition of domain into subdomains. Two different methods of enforcing compatibility along the subdomain interface will be used in the time discrete setting. A systematic theoretical analysis (which includes numerical stability, influence of perturbations, bounds on drift along the subdomain interface) will be performed. The first coupling method ensures that there is no drift along the subdomain interface but does not facilitate explicit/implicit coupling. The second coupling method allows explicit/implicit coupling with controlled (but non-zero) drift in the solution along the subdomain interface. Several canonical problems will be solved to numerically verify the theoretical predictions, and to illustrate the overall performance of the proposed coupling methods. Finally, we shall illustrate the robustness of the proposed coupling methods using a multi-time-step transient simulation of a fast bimolecular advective-diffusive-reactive system.
