A quasi-dual Lagrange multiplier space for serendipity mortar finite elements in 3D

Bishnu P. Lamichhane, Barbara I. Wohlmuth (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Domain decomposition techniques provide a flexible tool for the numerical approximation of partial differential equations. Here, we consider mortar techniques for quadratic finite elements in 3D with different Lagrange multiplier spaces. In particular, we focus on Lagrange multiplier spaces which yield optimal discretization schemes and a locally supported basis for the associated constrained mortar spaces in case of hexahedral triangulations. As a result, standard efficient iterative solvers...

A recovery-based a posteriori error estimator for the generalized Stokes problem

Pengzhan Huang, Qiuyu Zhang (2020)

Applications of Mathematics

A recovery-based a posteriori error estimator for the generalized Stokes problem is established based on the stabilized P 1 - P 0 (linear/constant) finite element method. The reliability and efficiency of the error estimator are shown. Through theoretical analysis and numerical tests, it is revealed that the estimator is useful and efficient for the generalized Stokes problem.

A reduced basis element method for the steady Stokes problem

Alf Emil Løvgren, Yvon Maday, Einar M. Rønquist (2006)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

The reduced basis element method is a new approach for approximating the solution of problems described by partial differential equations. The method takes its roots in domain decomposition methods and reduced basis discretizations. The basic idea is to first decompose the computational domain into a series of subdomains that are deformations of a few reference domains (or generic computational parts). Associated with each reference domain are precomputed solutions corresponding to the same...

A Reduced Basis Enrichment for the eXtended Finite Element Method

E. Chahine, P. Laborde, Y. Renard (2009)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

This paper is devoted to the introduction of a new variant of the extended finite element method (Xfem) for the approximation of elastostatic fracture problems. This variant consists in a reduced basis strategy for the definition of the crack tip enrichment. It is particularly adapted when the asymptotic crack-tip displacement is complex or even unknown. We give a mathematical result of quasi-optimal a priori error estimate and some computational tests including a comparison with some other strategies....

A reduced model for Darcy’s problem in networks of fractures

Luca Formaggia, Alessio Fumagalli, Anna Scotti, Paolo Ruffo (2014)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

Subsurface flows are influenced by the presence of faults and large fractures which act as preferential paths or barriers for the flow. In literature models were proposed to handle fractures in a porous medium as objects of codimension 1. In this work we consider the case of a network of intersecting fractures, with the aim of deriving physically consistent and effective interface conditions to impose at the intersection between fractures. This new model accounts for the angle between fractures...

A residual based a posteriori error estimator for an augmented mixed finite element method in linear elasticity

Tomás P. Barrios, Gabriel N. Gatica, María González, Norbert Heuer (2006)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

In this paper we develop a residual based a posteriori error analysis for an augmented mixed finite element method applied to the problem of linear elasticity in the plane. More precisely, we derive a reliable and efficient a posteriori error estimator for the case of pure Dirichlet boundary conditions. In addition, several numerical experiments confirming the theoretical properties of the estimator, and illustrating the capability of the corresponding adaptive algorithm to localize the singularities...

A review of two different approaches for superconvergence analysis

Qiding Zhu (1998)

Applications of Mathematics

In 1995, Wahbin presented a method for superconvergence analysis called “Interior symmetric method,” and declared that it is universal. In this paper, we carefully examine two superconvergence techniques used by mathematicians both in China and in America. We conclude that they are essentially different.

A second-order finite volume element method on quadrilateral meshes for elliptic equations

Min Yang (2006)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

In this paper, by use of affine biquadratic elements, we construct and analyze a finite volume element scheme for elliptic equations on quadrilateral meshes. The scheme is shown to be of second-order in H 1 -norm, provided that each quadrilateral in partition is almost a parallelogram. Numerical experiments are presented to confirm the usefulness and efficiency of the method.
