Chapter 2, Problem 3E

Solve the differential equation in problem 2 using (a) two and (b) three finite elements. Use the finite element approximation described in section 2.4. Plot the exact solution and two- and three-element solutions on the same graph. Similarly, plot the derivative d u d x . Note: The boundary conditions are not homogeneous. The boundary condition u ( 0 ) = 1 has to be used in solving the final equations.

(3) For the given boundary value problem, the exact solution is given as = 3x - 7y. (a) Based on the exact solution, find the values on all sides, (b) discretize the domain into 16 elements and 15 evenly spaced nodes. Run poisson.m and check if the finite element approximation and exact solution matches, (c) plot the D values from step (b) using topo.m. y Side 3 Side 1 8.0 (4) The temperature distribution in a flat slab needs to be studied under the conditions shown i the table. The ? in table indicates insulated boundary and Q is the distributed heat source. I all cases assume the upper and lower boundaries are insulated. Assume that the units of length energy, and temperature for the values shown are consistent with a unit value for the coefficier of thermal conductivity. Boundary Temperatures 6 Case A C D.

Use the Lax method to solve the inviscid Burgers' equation using a mesh with 51 points in the x direction. Solve this equation for a right propagating discontinu- ity with initial data u = 1 on the first 11 mesh points and u = 0 at all other points. Repeat your calculations for Courant numbers of 1.0, 0.6, and 0.3 and compare your numerical solutions with the analytical solution at the same time.
3. Using the trial function u¹(x) = a sin(x) and weighting function w¹(x) = b sin(x) find an approximate solution to the following boundary value problems by determining the value of coefficient a. For each one, also find the exact solution using Matlab and plot the exact and approximate solutions. (One point each for: (i) finding a, (ii) finding the exact solution, and (iii) plotting the solution) a. (U₁xx -2 = 0 u(0) = 0 u(1) = 0 b. Modify the trial function and find an approximation for the following boundary value problem. (Hint: you will need to add an extra term to the function to make it satisfy the boundary conditions.)
