A continuous finite element method to approximate Friedrichs' systems is
proposed and analyzed. Stability is achieved by penalizing the jumps
across mesh
interfaces of the normal derivative of some components of the discrete solution.
The convergence analysis leads to optimal convergence rates
in the graph norm and suboptimal of order ½ convergence rates in
the L2-norm. A variant of the method specialized to
Friedrichs' systems associated with elliptic PDE's in mixed form and
reducing the number...
We consider two static problems which describe the contact between a piezoelectric body and an obstacle, the so-called foundation. The constitutive relation of the material is assumed to be electro-elastic and involves the nonlinear elastic constitutive Hencky's law. In the first problem, the contact is assumed to be frictionless, and the foundation is nonconductive, while in the second it is supposed to be frictional, and the foundation is electrically conductive. The contact is modeled with the...
We consider a class of evolutionary variational inequalities depending on a parameter, the so-called viscosity. We recall existence and uniqueness results, both in the viscous and inviscid case. Then we prove that the solution of the inequality involving viscosity converges to the solution of the corresponding inviscid problem as the viscosity converges to zero. Finally, we apply these abstract results in the study of two antiplane quasistatic frictional contact problems with viscoelastic and elastic...
This paper studies a family of finite volume schemes for the hyperbolic scalar conservation law on a closed Riemannian manifold M.
For an initial value in BV(M) we will show that these schemes converge with a convergence rate towards the entropy solution. When M is 1-dimensional the schemes are TVD and we will show that this improves the convergence rate to
In this paper we study the finite element approximations to the Sobolev and viscoelasticity type equations and present a direct analysis for global superconvergence for these problems, without using Ritz projection or its modified forms.
In questo lavoro sono dati alcuni modelli matematici per il problema di contatto tra una membrana ed un suolo od ostacolo elastico. Viene costruita una approssimazione lineare a tratti della soluzione e, tramite una disequazione variazionale discreta, se ne dà il corrispondente teorema di convergenza.
The paper deals with an iterative method for numerical solving frictionless
contact problems for two elastic bodies. Each iterative step consists of a
Dirichlet problem for the one body, a contact problem for the other one and two
Neumann problems to coordinate contact stresses. Convergence is proved by the
Banach fixed point theorem in both continuous and discrete case. Numerical
experiments indicate scalability of the algorithm for some choices of the
relaxation parameter.
We consider a dynamic frictionless contact problem for a viscoelastic material with damage. The contact is modeled with normal compliance condition. The adhesion of the contact surfaces is considered and is modeled with a surface variable, the bonding field, whose evolution is described by a first order differential equation. We establish a variational formulation for the problem and prove the existence and uniqueness of the solution. The proofs are based on the theory of evolution equations with...
We introduce a family of mixed discontinuous Galerkin (DG) finite element methods for
nearly and perfectly incompressible linear elasticity. These mixed methods allow the
choice of polynomials of any order k ≥ 1 for the approximation of the
displacement field, and of order k or k − 1 for the
pressure space, and are stable for any positive value of the stabilization parameter. We
prove the optimal convergence of the displacement and stress fields...
