The Fourier singular complement method for the Poisson problem. II: Axisymmetric domains

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: This paper is the second part of a threefold article, aimed at solving numerically the Poisson problem in three-dimensional prismatic or axisymmetric domains. In the first part of this series, the Fourier Singular Complement Method was introduced and analysed, in prismatic domains. In this second part, the FSCM is studied in axisymmetric domains with conical vertices, whereas, in the third part, implementation issues, numerical tests and comparisons with other methods are carried out. The method is based on a Fourier expansion in the direction parallel to the reentrant edges of the domain, and on an improved variant of the Singular Complement Method in the 2D section perpendicular to those edges. Neither refinements near the reentrant edges or vertices of the domain, nor cut-off functions are required in the computations to achieve an optimal convergence order in terms of the mesh size and the number of Fourier modes used.


[For part I see ibid. 101, No. 3, 423--450 (2005; Zbl 1084.65123).] The rough structure of this paper, as well as of the companion previous one devoted to prismatic domains, is as follows: i) Poisson problems in axisymmetric and prismatic domains respectively, ii) Fourier expansions, iii) regular-singular decompositions in 2D domain \(\Omega\): theoretical study, iv) discrete formulation: the 2D SCM algorithm singular complement method and v) FSCM- Fourier singular complement method. In both papers, the authors carry out a detailed and sophisticated analysis of generalized SCM as a method to solve 3D singular Poisson problems. The axisymmetric case analysed therein involves only some technical difficulties as compared with the prismatic one. The main result closely parallels that for prismatic domain and states that the rate of FSCM convergence is bounded by a constant depending on the right hand side term of the problem, multiplied by the sum of 2D mesh size and the inverse of the number of Fourier modes used.
