8 Algebraic Flux Correction Methodology based on algebraic design criteria to derive robust and accurate high-resolution finite element schemes for Constrained data projection [5] Convection-dominated transport processes [3, 5, 6, 7, 10, 11] Anisotropic diffusion processes [3, 9] Processes with maximum-packing limit [4]...

9 Algebraic Flux Correction, cont d Extension of AFC to P1 / Q 1 elements [12]: P 2 elements [2]: CR-FE satisfy the necessary prerequisites [...] fail completely [...] yielding overdiffusive approximate solutions. RT-FE provides an accurate resolution [...] if the integral mean value based variant is adopted. In summary, algebraic flux correction for quadratic finite elements seems to be feasible but gives rise to many challenging open problems. Objective: to extend AFC to high-order B-spline basis functions M. Möller (NA group) AFC for B-Spline based FEM 7 / 34

10 B-splines in a nutshell Define knot vector Ξ = (ξ 1, ξ 2,..., ξ n+p+1 ) as a sequence of non-decreasing coordinates in the parameter space Ω 0 = [0, 1]: ξ i R is the i th knot with index i = 1, 2,..., n + p + 1 p is the polynomial order of the B-splines n is the number of B-spline functions Cox-de Boor recursion formula for N i,p : Ω 0 R p = 0 : N i,0 = { 1 if ξi ξ < ξ i+1 0 otherwise define 0 0 = 0 p > 0 : N i,p = ξ ξ i N i,p 1 + ξ i+p+1 ξ N i+1,p 1 ξ i+p ξ i ξ i+p+1 ξ i+1 M.

30 Summary Algebraic flux correction concept has been generalized to higher-order approximations based on B-spline bases Original lowest-order approximation is naturally included Nodal correction factors/residual provide information to locally reduce inter-element continuity by increasing knot multiplicity Peak clipping at smooth extrema is prevented by locally deactivating the flux limiter using the smoothness indicator [8] M.
