| contents | We present a one-dimensional high-order moving-mesh finite element method for moving boundary problems where the boundary velocity depends implicitly on the solution in the interior of the domain. The method employs a conservative arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian approach to predict the evolution of the approximate solution. It retains the order of accuracy of the underlying fixed-mesh method by (i) computing the boundary velocities using a high-order approximation to a distributed local conservation principle which generates a Lagrangian `flow' velocity and (ii) assuming a continuous piecewise linear variation of the mesh velocity field in the interior of the computational domain.
Within each time-step the algorithm consists of two stages: the computation of a velocity field with which to move both the domain boundary and the internal mesh, and the approximation of the solution to the PDE on the updated mesh. Both internal and boundary velocities are generated within the same framework, though it would be simple to replace the internal mesh velocity field by applying a more traditional mesh movement strategy (for example, one which seeks to equidistribute an error indicator at each time-step): the high-order accuracy should be retained as long the discrete velocity which is used in the solution update is assumed to vary linearly within mesh elements. The proposed method is explicit in time, requires only the inversion of linear systems of equations within each time-step, and is implemented fully in the physical domain, so no mapping to a reference domain is employed. It attains arbitrary-order accuracy in both space and time without the need to satisfy a discrete geometric conservation law. |
