摘要:
We propose a second-order-in-time, structure-preserving, and mesh-robust parametric finite element method for surface diffusion and volume-preserving mean curvature flow. The original evolution equations are first reformulated into new systems in which the tangential motion is governed by a harmonic map heat flow. This heat flow maps a fixed reference surface onto the evolving surface and induces tangential motion that reduces the associated harmonic energy. Consequently, in the discrete setting, the mesh quality can be maintained at a level comparable to that of the reference surface unless singularities occur. The volume-preserving property is theoretically guaranteed through a careful design of the scheme, while energy dissipation is enforced via a Lagrange multiplier. Several numerical experiments are presented to demonstrate the second-order temporal convergence and the effectiveness of the proposed method in maintaining mesh quality.
