On the Approximation of the Fokker–Planck Equation of the Finitely Extensible Nonlinear Elastic Dumbbell Model I: A New Weighted Formulation and an Optimal Spectral-Galerkin Algorithm in Two Dimensions

Abstract: Abstract. We propose a new weighted weak formulation for the Fokker-Planck equation of the finitely extensible nonlinear elastic dumbbell model and prove its well-posedness in weighted Sobolev spaces. We also propose simple and efficient semi-implicit time-discretization schemes which are unconditionally stable, i.e., the step size of time marching does not depend on the number of the bases used in configurational space. We then restrict ourselves to the two-dimensional case and construct two Fourier-Jacobi sp… Show more

“…A spectral-Galerkin approximation was further introduced in [25] based on a weighted weak formulation for f (b − |m| 2 ) −b/4 . An improved weighted formulation was proposed in [36] in terms of f (b − |m| 2 ) −s/2 for 1 < s ≤ b, leading to a different spectral-Galerkin algorithm. We note that this weighted formulation was also used for specific values of s in [15,16,26] and was analyzed in section 3.2 of [25].…”

“…We note that this weighted formulation was also used for specific values of s in [15,16,26] and was analyzed in section 3.2 of [25]. The methods in [25,36] have provable stability results for certain weighted integrable initial data. However, positivity of the numerical solution is not guaranteed.…”
