Abstract
En 中文
An important class of problems exhibits smooth behaviour on macroscopic space and time scales, while only a microscopic evolution law is known. For such time-dependent multi-scale problems, an equation-free framework has been proposed, of which patch dynamics is an essential component. Patch dynamics is designed to perform numerical simulations of an unavailable macroscopic equation on macroscopic time and length scales; it uses appropriately initialized simulations of the available microscopic model in a number of small boxes (patches), which cover only a fraction of the space-time domain. We show that it is possible to use arbitrary boundary conditions for these patches, provided that suitably large buffer regions shield the boundary artefacts from the interior of the patches. We analyze the accuracy of this scheme for a diffusion homogenization problem with periodic heterogeneity and illustrate the approach with a set of numerical examples, which include a non-linear reaction-diffusion equation and the Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation.
