    Some analytical results for an algebraic flux correction scheme for a steady convection-diffusion equation in 1D
    (Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2014) Barrenechea, Gabriel R.; John, Volker; Knobloch, Petr
    Algebraic flux correction schemes are nonlinear discretizations of convection dominated problems. In this work, a scheme from this class is studied for a steady-state convection-diffusion equation in one dimension. It is proved that this scheme satisfies the discrete maximum principle. Also, as it is a nonlinear scheme, the solvability of the linear subproblems arising in a Picard iteration is studied, where positive and negative results are proved. Furthermore, the non-existence of solutions for the nonlinear scheme is proved by means of counterexamples. Therefore, a modification of the method, which ensures the existence of a solution, is proposed. A weak version of the discrete maximum principle is proved for this modified method.

    A unified analysis of Algebraic Flux Correction schemes for convection-diffusion equations
    (Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2018) Barrenechea, Gabriel R.; John, Volker; Knobloch, Petr; Rankin, Richard
    Recent results on the numerical analysis of Algebraic Flux Correction (AFC) finite element schemes for scalar convection-diffusion equations are reviewed and presented in a unified way. A general form of the method is presented using a link between AFC schemes and nonlinear edge-based diffusion scheme. Then, specific versions of the method, this is, different definitions for the flux limiters, are reviewed and their main results stated. Numerical studies compare the different versions of the scheme.

    Analysis of algebraic flux correction schemes
    (Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2015) Barrenechea, Gabriel R.; John, Volker; Knobloch, Petr
    A family of algebraic flux correction schemes for linear boundary value problems in any space dimension is studied. These methods main feature is that they limit the fluxes along each one of the edges of the triangulation, and we suppose that the limiters used are symmetric. For an abstract problem, the existence of a solution, existence and uniqueness of the solution of a linearized problem, and an a priori error estimate, are proved under rather general assumptions on the limiters. For a particular (but standard in practice) choice of the limiters, it is shown that a local discrete maximum principle holds. The theory developed for the abstract problem is applied to convection-diffusion-reaction equations, where in particular an error estimate is derived. Numerical studies show its sharpness.
