In this paper, we construct a combined upwinding and mixed finite
element method for the numerical solution of a two-dimensional mean
field model of superconducting vortices. An advantage of our method
is that it works
for any unstructured regular triangulation. A simple convergence
analysis is given without resorting to the discrete maximum principle.
Numerical examples are also presented.
