L'objet de cette thèse est l'étude et la mise en œuvre d'une méthode d’éléments finis multi-échelles pour la simulation d'écoulements miscibles en milieux poreux. La définition des fonctions de base multi-échelles suit l'idée introduite par F. Ouaki. La nouveauté de ce travail consiste à combiner cette approche multi-échelle avec des éléments finis de type Galerkine Discontinus (DG) de façon à pouvoir utiliser ces nouveaux éléments sur des maillages non-conformes composés de mailles de formes diverses. Nous rappelons, dans un premier temps, le principe des méthodes DG et montrons comment ces méthodes peuvent être utilisées pour discrétiser une équation de convection-diffusion instationnaire identique à celle rencontrée dans le problème d'écoulement considéré dans ce travail. Après avoir vérifié l'existence et l'unicité d'une solution à ce problème, nous redémontrons la convergence des méthodes DG vers cette solution en établissant une estimation d'erreur a priori. Nous introduisons, ensuite, les éléments finis multi-échelles non conformes et détaillons leur mise en œuvre sur ce problème de convection-diffusion. En supposant les conditions aux limites et les paramètres du problème périodiques, nous montrons une nouvelle estimation d'erreur a priori pour cette méthode. Dans une seconde partie, nous considérons le problème d'écoulement complet où l'équation considérée dans la première partie est résolue de manière couplée avec l'équation de Darcy. Nous introduisons différents cas tests inspirés de modèles d'écoulements rencontrés en géosciences et comparons les solutions obtenues avec les deux méthodes DG, à savoir la méthode classique utilisant un seul maillage et la méthode étudiée ici. Nous proposons de nouvelles conditions aux limites pour la résolution des problèmes de cellule qui permettent, par rapport à des conditions aux limites linéaires plus classiquement utilisées, de mieux reproduire les variations des solutions le long des interfaces du maillage grossier. Les résultats de ces tests montrent que la méthode multi-échelle proposée permet de calculer des solutions proches de celles obtenues avec la méthode DG sur un seul maillage et de réduire, de façon significative, la taille du système linéaire à résoudre à chaque pas de temps. / This work deals with the study and the implementation of a multiscale finite element method for the simulation of miscible flows in porous media. The definition of the multiscale basis functions is based on the idea introduced by F. Ouaki. The novelty of this work lies in the combination of this multiscale approach with Discontinuous Galerkin methods (DG) so that these new finite elements can be used on nonconforming meshes composed of cells with various shapes. We first recall the basics of DG methods and their application to the discretisation of a convection-diffusion equation that arises in the flow problem considered in this work. After establishing the existence and uniqueness of a solution to the continuous problem, we prove again the convergence of DG methods towards this solution by establishing an a priori error estimate. We then introduce the nonconforming multiscale finite element method and explain how it can be implemented for this convection-diffusion problem. Assuming that the boundary conditions and the parameters of the problem are periodic, we prove a new a priori error estimate for this method. In a second part, we consider the whole flow problem where the equation, studied in the first part of that work, is coupled and simultaneously solved with Darcy equation. We introduce various synthetic test cases which are close to flow problems encountered in geosciences and compare the solutions obtained with both DG methods, namely the classical method based on the use of a single mesh and the one studied here. For the resolution of the cell problems, we propose new boundary conditions which, compared to classical linear conditions, allow us to better reproduce the variations of the solutions on the interfaces of the coarse mesh. The results of these tests show that the multiscale method enables us to calculate solutions which are close to the ones obtained withDG methods on a single mesh and also enables us to reduce significantly the size of the linear system that has to be solved at each time step.

Cette thèse est consacrée à l'étude des équations du Darcy Brinkman Forchheimer (DBF) avec des conditions aux limites non standards. Nous montrons d'abord l'existence de différents type de solutions (faible, forte) correspondant au problème DBF stationnaire dans un domaine simplement connexe avec des conditions portants sur la composante normale du champ de vitesse et la composante tangentielle du tourbillon. Ensuite, nous considérons le système Brinkman Forchheimer (BF) avec des conditions sur la pression dans un domaine non simplement connexe. Nous prouvons que ce problème est bien posé ainsi que l'existence de la solution forte. Nous établissons la régularité de la solution dans les espaces L^p pour p >= 2.L'étude et l'approximation du problème DBF non stationnaire est basée sur une approche pseudo-compressibilité. Une estimation d'erreur d'ordre deux est établie dans le cas o\`u les conditions aux limites sont de types Dirichlet ou Navier.Enfin, une méthode d'éléments finis Galerkin Discontinue est proposée et la convergence établie concernant le problème DBF linéarisé et le système DBF non linéaire avec des conditions aux limites non standard. / This thesis is devoted to Darcy Brinkman Forchheimer (DBF) equations with a non standard boundary conditions. We prove first the existence of different type of solutions (weak, strong) of the stationary DBF problem in a simply connected domain with boundary conditions on the normal component of the velocity field and the tangential component of the vorticity. Next, we consider Brinkman Forchheimer (BF) system with boundary conditions on the pressure in a non simply connected domain. We prove the well-posedness and the existence of a strong solution of this problem. We establish the regularity of the solution in the L^p spaces, for p >= 2.The approximation of the non stationary DBF problem is based on the pseudo-compressibility approach. The second order's error estimate is established in the case where the boundary conditions are of type Dirichlet or Navier. Finally, the finite elements Galerkin Discontinuous method is proposed and the convergence is settled concerning the linearized DBF problem and the non linear DBF system with a non standard boundary conditions.

The thesis is dedicated to the study and numerical analysis of the non- linear flows in the porous media, using general Forchheimer models. In the numerical analysis, the local discontinuous Galerkin method is chosen. The first part of the paper is dedicated to the derivation of the studied equations based on the physical motivation and summarizing the theory needed for the further analysis. Core of the thesis consists of the introduction of the chosen discretization method and the derivation of the main stability and a priory error estimates, optimal for the linear ansatz functions. At the end we present a couple of numerical experiments to verify the results. 1

This work presents implementation of a hybridized discontinuous Galerkin (DG) method for robust simulation of the hypersonic aerothermoelastic multiphysics system. Simulation of hypersonic vehicles requires accurate resolution of complex multiphysics interactions including the effects of high-speed turbulent flow, extreme heating, and vehicle deformation due to considerable pressure loads and thermal stresses. However, the state-of-the-art procedures for hypersonic aerothermoelasticity are comprised of low-fidelity approaches and partitioned coupling schemes. These approaches preclude robust design and analysis of hypersonic vehicles for a number of reasons. First, low-fidelity approaches limit their application to simple geometries and lack the ability to capture small scale flow features (e.g. turbulence, shocks, and boundary layers) which greatly degrades modeling robustness and solution accuracy. Second, partitioned coupling approaches can introduce considerable temporal and spatial inaccuracies which are not trivially remedied. In light of these barriers, we propose development of a monolithically-coupled hybridized DG approach to enable robust design and analysis of hypersonic vehicles with arbitrary geometries. Monolithic coupling methods implement a coupled multiphysics system as a single, or monolithic, equation system to be resolved by a single simulation approach. Further, monolithic approaches are free from the physical inaccuracies and instabilities imposed by partitioned approaches and enable time-accurate evolution of the coupled physics system. In this work, a DG method is considered due to its ability to accurately resolve second-order partial differential equations (PDEs) of all classes. We note that the hypersonic aerothermoelastic system is composed of PDEs of all three classes. Hybridized DG methods are specifically considered due to their exceptional computational efficiency compared to traditional DG methods. It is expected that our monolithic hybridized DG implementation of the hypersonic aerothermoelastic system will 1) provide the physical accuracy necessary to capture complex physical features, 2) be free from any spatial and temporal inaccuracies or instabilities inherent to partitioned coupling procedures, 3) represent a transition to high-fidelity simulation methods for hypersonic aerothermoelasticity, and 4) enable efficient analysis of hypersonic aerothermoelastic effects on arbitrary geometries.

In this thesis, we explore a novel approach to solving the Helmholtz equation,the WaveHolz iteration method. This method aims to overcome some ofthe difficulties with solving the Helmholtz equation by providing a highlyparallelizable iterative method based on solving the time-dependent Waveequation. If this method proves reliable and computationally feasible it wouldhave great value for future application. Therefore, it is of interest to evaluatethe performance and properties of this method. To fully evaluate this method,the method was implemented and conclusions were based on results fromsimulations of the method. The method was able to solve problems in threedimensions and it seems that the method is very well suited for parallelized computations. To replicate real-world scenarios simulations of problems ininfinite and curvilinear domains were conducted. Based on the result presentedhere it is possible to further refine the method, especially regarding the setupof the domain and the implementation of boundary conditions for infinitedomains. / I detta examensarbete presenteras en ny metod för att lösa Helmholtz ekvation, WaveHoltz iterativa metod. Målet med denna metod är att undkomma vissa problem som uppstår med andra metoder för att lösa Helmholtz ekvation genom att tillhandahålla iterativ metod som baseras på lösningar av den tidsberoende vågekvationen samt kan parallelliseras effektivt. Om denna metod visar sig vara stabil och effektiv beräkningsmässigt skulle detta medföra stor potential för framtida tillämpningar. Av denna anledning undersöks metoden och dess egenskaper. För att fullt ut kunna evaluera denna method implementerades den vartefter simuleringar genomfördes och slutsatser drogs. Med metoden var att det var möjligt att lösa problem i tre dimensioner och metoden visade sig vara lämplig för parallella beräkningar. För att återskapa verklighetstrogna scenarion beräknades problem i oändliga och kroklinjiga domäner. Baserat på resultaten som presenteras i denna rapport är det möjligt att förfina metoden, speciellt vid konstruktionen av komplicerade beräkningsnät och randvillkoren för de oändliga problemen.
