Aplicação do método de complementaridade mista para problemas parabólicos não lineares

Abstract

In this work, we study the mixed complementarity method for nonlinear parabolic problems, because some can be written as mixed complementarity problems and appear in many applications such as fluid flow in porous media, diffusion, heat flow wrapping phase change. These types of problems have difficulty obtaining the analytical solution. We study the conservation laws and the types of solutions associated with the Riemann Problem, these types of laws are essentially balance laws that express the fact that some substance is balanced. The study of this theory is important because the conservation laws often appear when the parabolic problems are neglected the diffusive terms of second order. We will study a numerical method that allows finding an approximate solution of the exact solution, which is a variation of the Newton’s method for solving nonlinear systems based on an implicit finite difference scheme and a nonlinear algorithm mixed complementarity, FDA-MNCP. The method has the advantage of provide a global convergence in relation to the finite difference method and method of Newton that only has local convergence. The theory is applied to model in-situ combustion, which can be rewritten in the form of mixed complementarity also we do a comparison with the FDA-NCP method.
